General
Sonic 2 Adventure Edition is a ROM hack by the skilled MainMemory. The concept of the hack is that it takes gameplay mechanics from Sonic Adventure and applies them to Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Playable characters include Sonic and Tails. Being the current version of the hack, the mod boasts loads of features and abilities to enjoy in-game.
Features
- The mod includes an Adventure Mode and a Trial Mode.
- For each mode, a character select screen is provided. In Adventure Mode, a percentage of game completion is provided. For Trial Mode, a level select screen along with emblem stats are shown similar to Sonic Adventure.
- By completing the challenges, players will earn emblems for each stage.
- The HUD has received a slight overhaul to better match Sonic Adventure. Removal of the Score Counter, more detail for the timer, a ring image is used in place of the the word “Rings”, and removal the current character’s name from the life display are the made changes.
- The end of each first act of a zone directly transports you to the next act, serving as a level transition to make one continuous level.
- Each level has 3 missions in which you can earn emblems.
- Tails and Trial Mode can be unlocked by completing Emerald Hill Zone.
- Score for Enemy Bonus is added to the results screen.
- Score Tallies are used for Sky Chase and Death Egg upon completing the level.
- Score Tally is also used for Wing Fortress once you defeat the boss.

Abilities/Gameplay
- SPIN DASH – Activated by holding B button while on the ground. Holding it will charge its power.
- LIGHT SPEED DASH- Once the SPIN DASH is fully charged, Sonic will stand again and glow bright blue. Release the B button to dash forward or to travel along a trail of nearby rings.
- LIGHT SPEED ATTACK – With fully charged SPIN DASH, release the B button when near enemies or monitors to attack each at light speed.
- HOMING ATTACK/JUMP DASH – Press the A or C button after jumping to do a jump dash. Do this near badniks or monitors to perform homing attack. Homing attacks can be chained while still in the air to do continuous attacks.
