Almost Super Sonic
Thank you so much for this css art drsteph you are a living god
Sonic dropped one of the emeralds while transforming, and now he's unable to revert to his normal form. While this sounds like a good thing at first, it's more of a hindrance then anything else, since he'll slowly tire out due to over-exertion. People also started calling him an ass for some reason.
So, what makes him different from normal old super sonic?
This is by far his biggest change. Instead of consuming rings, Almost Super Sonic's stats (Jump height, Spindash power, Speed, Thok power) slowly get worse over time, turning him into the ultimate speedrun character. Can you beat the level before it becomes impossible? (You can press custom 3 to die instantly if you get softlocked)
By pressing spin with no shield, you're able to float in the air, however, since sonic was unable to use the emeralds' full power, you will slowly fall while floating.
You can run into enemies to defeat them like normal, and you're incapable of losing rings, but you can still get hit, so you can't just cheese levels by abusing your invincibility to get past beds of spikes or erz's lasers.
Since he's not quite super, Almost Super Sonic is still capable of utilizing the abilities of shields, however, getting hit will still make you loose your shield, so be careful.
Almost Super Sonic doesn't need to complete any special stages to get the true ending, however, he's incapable of using the emeralds to turn super for obvious reasons. (Does not apply to netgames.)
Changelog:
V1.1: Fixed you not dying when your stats hit rock bottom, changed the hudname to A.S.S, and added a hud element that shows you how far your stats have dropped, and added a small easter egg courtesy of Man553.
