'''Sonic the Hedgehog: ReOne''' - a hack that was entered in SHC 2020. It included ported elements from Sonic 2 and 3, enjoyable music and platforming special stages.  It had some praise from the community and fans, but critics noticed the lack of charm the hack was, how Delta was trying too hard and the level design was quite unfair. Unfortunately, he didn't win a trophy after reading the praise from the judges. This led him to discontinue his hack and move on to make his sequel.

'''Sonic 2: Pink Edition by E-112-Psi''' - Helped him with some bugs and improving on certain areas

How he started

In August 2019, DeltaWooloo was lurking around on his PC, trying to find something productive to do. He stumbled across Sonic ROM hacking and enjoyed the programming structure of the Motorola 68k. Over a month, he understood how the language worked alongside porting music and elements from the Mega Drive Sonic games to Sonic 1. On September 1st 2019, he released his hack to SSRG under Sonic 1 More Edition. However, that hack was critically panned for being too expo material and not showing much. Nevertheless, he was proud that he made a base and got to work on trying to improve it. However, he gave up in October 2019 and took a long hiatus.

January 2020 is when he returned, and he has learned much since then. First, he got a fully working Super Sonic port, using the invincibility stars and Sonic 3 sprites and ported many Sonic 2 objects such as the options screen, title screen menu, etc. DeltaWooloo also joined Discord servers and befriended many people. Still, he took the hack seriously by rushing people without realising, which ended with a few feuds (which, thankfully, all was forgiven.). Then, in September 2020, he released Sonic ReOne to the public, and people liked it. A few people criticised the level design, Sonic 3 sprites and boring special stage design, but many people enjoyed a lot of things with it. Finally, he rebooted the hack with Emerald Hill Zone and the elemental shields ported to Sonic 1, but he gave up and focused on his level designing skills. This led to Another South Island Adventure, which had a lot of positive reviews due to the levels looking sweet and Delta giving the elemental shields their correct usage.

Where he ends up today

He lurks around in a few Discord servers helping people from time to time and messaging close friends in the community for assistance for his upcoming hack.

He's leading the team being the SHC 2022-winning Sonic Isle Of Magnetic Artifacts, and is helping out in a few projects such as Hellfire Saga and Sonic 1 Definitive. He is making another hack, though, although the release date is currently unknown due to his busy schedule nowadays.
