The Sonic the Hedgehog Level Creator was an official flash Sonic game on the PlaySEGA Website.
Contents
Overview
While anyone could play created levels, only VIP Members could create new ones. Using its built-in level editor, Members could place level chunks and objects, like Rings and Badniks, into a level grid. The only required object in the editor was the signpost to end the level; anything else is up to the user to make.
Once the user has finished editing the level, the level would be uploaded to the pool of levels on PlaySEGA to let anyone play them.[1] The freedom to create allowed for different types of levels, including speedy ones with many hills and loops, thinking levels with only one way to the goal, or even levels filled with Rings and Speed Shoes just to rack up points. However, there was only one Zone theme the player could use, which was somewhat limiting. Strangely enough, the files indicate this is the 7th Zone in Sonic 1, as there are the other Zones' tilesets in the files. The object names in the files are actually very strange. (Examples: Hachi for the Buzz Bomber and Kani for the Crabmeat.)
Unfortunately, the site is offline. It is currently unknown if someone has downloaded the Level Editor page.
