<forumuser name="Anthall" /> Anthall (also known as anthall1991) is a 17 year old scener who is currently at college learning ICT. His hobbies are programming, music, gaming and movie creation. He is also interested in Sciences and Mathematics, and thinks that he is the only person from the United Kingdom who likes Baseball. He is known to be a slow at learning the basics, but as soon as he learns the basics, he then flies through the learning process of advanced techniques.

When he was in his preteens and early teens, one of his dreams was to be able to create levels for Sonic the Hedgehog games. He always played with the Debug mode of Sonic the Hedgehog, and liked to try out new things this way.

Around 2006, he managed to get a whole GoodGen set, which contained thirty-ish Sonic hacks that he liked to mess around with, which resulted in him searching the internet for programs which would allow him to create his own Sonic hack. He found a program called Esrael Sonic Editor, and its sequel.

He started off with an amateurish hack called Sonic Seasons, which he really enjoyed creating and play testing, even though it was admittedly a big mess. He did tons of stuff that most amateur ROM hackers do and changed Sonic's colours which made all the game look horrible. He also managed to mess up the HUD using Esrael Sonic Editor somehow.

He decided to have a clean start with Sonic hacking and created a Sonic hack called Sonic the Hedgehog - The Final Showdown, which he is currently working on. It is a much improved Sonic hack which really shows Anthall's improvements in his hacking expertise. It contains ASM, graphics hacking, level layout changes and music ports. He is using SonED2 to continue his hack.

His favorite hacks are Sonic 1 Megamix, soniNeko and Sonic 1 Harder Levels Version.
