Sonic Classic Heroes is a hack consiting of Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis by flamewing that allows the player to play as Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles simultaneously, similar to Sonic Heroes. It also features (and will have more of in future releases) multiple elements from ‘’Sonic 3 & Knuckles’’ including, but not limited to, element shields, character abilities, and game save features yet to be announced.

Features

Characters

  • The player can choose to have one, two, or three characters—from a choice of Sonic, Tails and Knuckles—and, when using more than one, can rapidly switch between them.
  • A new options screen enables the player to select the number of characters to play as, and the order thereof. Future versions will include multiple save slots and several other options.
  • Up to three players can play co-operatively via the sega:Multi-Tap. Special Stages can be played in this way, too; currently, all selected characters enter, but in the future this will be optional.
  • Sonic can use the Insta-Shield and Super Peel-Out, and he has a higher top speed.
  • Tails can fly, swim and can carry either or both Sonic and Knuckles.
  • Knuckles can glide and climb.
  • When player 1 is controlling Sonic, Tails and Knuckles share his top speed, acceleration, deceleration and jump strength (the last three of which are more meaningful when you consider Super Sonic's enhanced stats). (This is especially useful for Knuckles: when he is CPU controlled and thus following Sonic, his usual reduced jump height might make him unable to reach some platforms that Sonic might jump to.)

Items

  • Power-ups are shared between players; for example, breaking a monitor containing a shield leads to each player character receiving a shield of that type.
  • The Blue Shield gives Sonic the Homing Attack.
