Sonic the Hedgehog & Ashuro

Introduction to Sonic the Hedgehog & Ashuro

Sonic the Hedgehog & Ashuro is a creative hack of the iconic classic Sonic the Hedgehog, blending two beloved characters and their unique abilities in a shared universe. Players can choose to control Sonic the Hedgehog or Ashuro the Badger, each navigating the same levels with distinct gameplay mechanics, animations, and music. 

Gameplay Features of Sonic the Hedgehog & Ashuro

This hack features three acts, each set at different times of the day:

• Act 1: Morning
• Act 2: Day
• Act 3: Afternoon

The levels are the same, but the characters' approaches to gameplay differ. Sonic boasts classic abilities like the Peel Out, Spindash, and Homing Attack, while Ashuro has a similar set of moves but with a unique double jump replacing the Homing Attack.

Sonic can run on water, giving him an edge in speed, while Ashuro excels in swimming and can wall jump, adding versatility to his movement.

Special Stages and Chaos Emeralds:

As you race through the levels, make sure to catch all the Chaos Emeralds. Collecting 50 rings allows you to transform into Super Sonic (as Sonic) or Nega Ashuro (as Ashuro), each with enhanced powers to take on tougher challenges.
