- Back to: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit) AutoDemo.
Free movement
Changing byte 0x0064 to 02 will enable the ability to move around a level freely. Once enabled, hold and press the D-Pad in any direction during gameplay to move Sonic around.[1]
Unused content

Description | |
---|---|
Sprites that depict Sonic laughing in a rather creepy manner. Purpose unknown. | |
A frame of Sonic's idle animation from the Master System version of Sonic 1, but altered to make him look happy. | |
An early skidding animation, which looks closer to those from the Mega Drive version. | |
Sonic can't die in this prototype, so this death sprite goes unused. It is identical to the final's early death sprite, taken from the Master System version of Sonic 1. | |
No monitors appear in any level, but graphics for them are loaded at the Sega/title screen. | |
These button sprites are located within the Under Ground Zone tileset, but aren't used in any Acts. | |
Under Ground Zone only has downward-facing spikes at this point, rendering these upward spikes unused. | |
There's nothing that can explode in the AutoDemo, so the explosion tiles that are located within the number/icon sprites are never seen in action. | |
Blocks can't be destroyed in the AutoDemo, leaving this fragment unused. | |
The trees seen in the final Sky High Zone and in some prerelease screenshots are present in the ROM, but not actually used at this point.[2] | |
The 16x16 font from the unused level title cards (see below). Only 8 of the 41 characters get used. |
Early title card
Setting ROM address 0x2BA to 03 will sometimes load an early title card on resets. It crashes to a black screen after two seconds.[3]
