Sonic 3 Goodliest Edition

By CancerEdition
 

After the events of the famous Sonic 2 game, Eggman is fed up with Sonic's sneaky tricks RUINING his plans every single time. He decides that he has to take his ultimate revenge against the blue menace. His plan starts with a quick trip across the multiverse to bring in the strongest fighters and warriors he knows of. He then returns and shoves all of them into coins with their faces on them. Eggman even teams up with Knuckles the Echidna and hijacks the shield monitors. But worst of all, Eggman starts his plan on Tuesday, Sonic's favorite day of the entire year. With his new army in place, he finds Sonic to taunt him about his new plan.

Coming from Super Mario Land 2, this will give you Mario's famous leporine hat that allows you to jump higher than before.

Playing as Sonic will let you glide through the air and hop off of enemies while doing so.

Z-Saber

Coming from the Mega Man X series, this will give you Zero's hair and his Z-Saber, which allows you to attack enemies, projectiles, and bosses and slice with high damage.

If you don't have the L or R buttons or the Z-Saber in general, you can stun High Max (the big robot in SSZ) with double jump moves like the insta-shield and the gllide before hitting him.

Getting a script compilation error every time I load the mod. All the sound replacements still exist, but none of the custom scripted stuff is working. Is there a way to fix?

Edit: Fixed the issue. Turns out I haven't updated my game in months. Sorry for bugging you, love the mod!
