File:Sonic 2 Special Stage Editor by flamewing.png
flamewing's Sonic 2 Special Stage Editor in action
The Sonic 2 Special Stage Editor is a cross-platform program, designed by flamewing, which can edit the special stages from the Genesis version of Sonic 2. It is the first known program able to do so in over a decade (unlike editors for Sonic 1 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles special stages, which are quite common), and it has been welcomed very well because of this.
I have been bitching about this for a DECADE.
You have made my dreams.

Scarred Sun

It doesn't edit the Sonic 2 ROM in itself, as it is meant to be used with a split disassembly.

Features

This Sonic 2 Special Stage Editor allows the user to edit:

  • the object placement (rings, bombs)
  • how the special stage twists and turns (within Sonic 2 engine constraints)
  • how long each special stage is
  • how many special stages there are in the files

It does not allow to edit:

  • background
  • palette
  • ring requirements

Which should still be edited by hand in a disassembly. Likewise, if the user wants to have more than 7 special stages, modifications of the disassembly are required in order to get the new stages from the eighth onwards to work.
