SA!! Just spin dash into the sides of the box alot of times and a string
of rings will appear in front of you! But the sparkle from the rings
never go away!

2. Throw an Omo-chao into the box before the rail grind. You can't
destroy the box after that. Omo-chao can also destroy any cars or bots
that you come across when he's flying around your head.

stick, knuckles will fly upside-down!

Once you have the fire somersault, somersault into the steel box where
the "button" was in SA2 Demo. You will find a switch. Hit the switch,
and the sparkle STILL doesnt go away!

E. Shadow Through The Wall

After the third checkpoint, there are 3 passages to choose from.
Go up on the steel drums right before that area, get on top of the drum
and as close to the wall as possible. Spindash and you will go thru the
wall.

F. Sonic's Upside Down Infinite Fall

Difficulty: Easy to Meduim-Easy
Requirements: SA2
Characters: Sonic
Level: Crazy Gadget

Ok In the third ot last room if you took the right route you will
be on the ceiling..their will be a rocket you must use to destroy a
green barrier with a chao box and a gravity control switch in
there..well right after pressing the button run as fast as you can into
the green stuff before it goes away..either run or jump into it...you
should be sucked through the ceiling and fall upside down forever..the
farther oyu go the more of Crazy Gadget you can see.

G. Make The GUN Truck fall into a pit

Difficulty: Medium-Hard
Requirements: SA2 or SA2 Demo
Character: Sonic
Level: City Escape

There are two ways to do this We will list them both:

1. Ok Get to the Truck Chase and as soon as it begins try and run up
the hill and the truck will fly through the air and hit an invisable
wall now quickly run up to it and stay close and walk up the hill while
it's backing up stay close and when it gets to the top it will keep
going and fall into a pit!

2. Get to the Truck Chase and when the truck is on the ground homing
attack it and when you are flashing do it again and oyu won't be
hurt...now stay close and walk slowly up the hill..then do what you did
in step 1

The funny part about this is the truck hits Omochao allowing you to be
able to pick him up and carry him through the level and beat it...and if
oyu go to where Big is you can see he's not even running! It looks like
he's dancing!

H. Use Omochao In Boss Fights

Difficulty: Easy
Requirments: SA2
Character: Anybody
Level: Any Boss Fight

This is a cool and funny ok all you have to do is die in a boss
fight and when Omo-Chao comes to give you a tip knock him outta the air
using a Drill Dive,a Bounce,charge up a spin dash so he runs into the
energy when being charged,ect. now when he's on the ground grab him and
use him as a weapon!

I. Dying And Finishing The Level At The Same Time

Difficulty: Easy
Requirments: SA2
Character: Sonic
Level: Crazy Gadget

This is an interesting glitch actually.Ok,what you must do is get
to the last part of Crazy Gadget..Use the Rocket to destroy the green
barrier infront of the Goal Ring..Now go over ot the little "tunnel"
that the Goal Ring is in and use your bounce attack and try to land on
the top..when you do you will here Sonic yell like he was falling but
you can still control him..but if you wait to long it goes black and
puts you back at the checkpoint and takes away one life..but if you hit
the goal ring then it's like you died but still beat the level!

J. Running Up The Wall in Final Rush

Diffifculty: Easy-Medium
Requirments: SA2
Character: Sonic
Level: Final Rush

Go to the part of the level at the end where you are running
strait down and pieces of the colony are falling at you..now do that
part like normal and when you hit the booster and fly over to the Goal
Ring do NOT touch it instead turn around and get to the ledge..Do a
spindash the jump and land on the red area you just came from..now run
upward and you will notice your under the booster that sends you to the
goal ring..spindash and jump over it and start running(or spindashing)
up the building..the peices of the colony won't even hurt you now! So
you can just run around and play on it!

camera.Try to stay near the ceiling.Keep going,and when you reach the
end,you'll fall into a corner.The camera will be stuck in the corner,and
