S3 Sonic v1.4

The add-on introduces gameplay elements from Sonic 3 & Knuckles, such as the Insta-Shield, which significantly alters and enhances the SRB2 gameplay experience.
The physics adjustments are well-received, contributing to a more authentic and enjoyable classic Sonic experience.
Nostalgia Factor:
For fans of classic Sonic games, particularly Sonic 3 & Knuckles, this add-on provides a strong sense of nostalgia. Users express joy at being able to relive those classic gameplay moments within SRB2.

Overall, a decent mod. However, the method of spindashing feels a little awkward and it SUCKS that the Super Emeralds (which can take a LOT of farming, depending on level) don't save upon returning to the title screen, unlike another character mod that uses custom Emeralds (RushChars). Hopefully, the latter can be addressed in a future update (this being a manjor gripe of mine. And ik about the "getallsuperemeralds" command, but if you've already gotten all super emeralds legit once, you should just.... have them and not have to use the command)

for some reason super emeralds don't save and upon reopening the game they are gone, aside from that the mod is fine

Is no one going to talk about how amazing the new ccs art is?

This is an amazing and well made addon for srb2, it feels like i'm playing sonic 3 ! Keep up the great work!

It was good but for some reason why i host with s3 sonic the hyper flash are kinda resynching

That kinda good idea and kinda good mod but there one thing I hate when you want do spindash you have to hold shift and press or spam space ngl good mod but please make menu for making free spindash like normal sonic can do it I like that mod thanks

I love how much in control I feel with this character! I love how high his jump is and how strong the spindash is! Such a simple but I already feel like doing a second run with him! It might be because Sonic 3 is my favorite Sonic game, but I feel right at home with his physics. Thank you for this mod!

My version of sonic 3 be looking different

i like that mod!

Sonic 3 is my favorite classic videogame, there's not much I need to clarify, the spritework, the options, the damn physics, everything is so lovingly taken care of, it's a dream come true!!! I look towards the horizon, it would be great to have more characters with this style of sprites like Tails or Knuckles.

AMAZING MOD but hear me out S3 TAILS WITH THE SUPER FLICKIES

This mod is extremely perfect and if you are reading this review(the creator) you could add some songs from Sonic & Knuckles which will have an option and will bring more nostalgia to those who played S&K in my opinion this mod is perfect

Pretty good but he laid me off

Exactly what you would expect if you put S3's Sonic into SRB2, even things like the jump height were affected! I haven't seen all ths boy can do in SRB2, but since it's S3 Sonic he probably can do everything he can in S3.

I would like to start out by saying that this addon is like, stupidly impressive with the amount of unique sprites that have been made for all 8 directions which none look out of place stylistically with the OG sprites. The physics changes for the most part feel absolutely in line with the original S3, and make him much more fun than if it was just a reskinned vanilla Sonic with the Instashield and without the Thok. There's some parts of his gameplay I'd like to see some changes to, though.

First of all, the Spindash in the first two versions was WAY too weak if you were mashing, but in the current version (v1.2), I feel like its initial speed without mashing is TOO fast and is inconsistent with how vanilla chars' spindash speeds ramp up.

Small personal issue, but the Instashield hitbox feels juuuuust a smidge smaller than I expect.

Launching from springs and coming up out of water straight up just doesn't work sometimes. (See the red springs at the end of Deep Sea 3)

Final thing, trying to spindash on certain slopes straight up doesn't work, which I've experienced as a major problem on OLDC 2023 R1's Blossom Breeze 1, which the majority of slopes there have that problem. It doesn't happen in any vanilla maps as far as I know, but it's most likely a prominent issue on other custom maps, so I hope that's looked into for future versions.

I've been getting addons for quite sometime now, but your addon alone made me want to go make an account just so I can tell you how just amazing this character is

Just everything, feels so precisely right, the physics are perfect, badnik bounces feel just as good as the did in the classic titles, and just like those classic titles, he's so rewarding to play as

You didn't just bring Sonic 3 sonic, you brought the most Accurate Classic Sonic to SRB2, absolute phenomenal job!!

this is now peak

I Love This Mod I Saw This On Your Trailor.

The spritework brings tears to my eyes, and the physics (literally) feel like no other!!! It's a twist on vanilla SRB2, and there's not many of those nowadays.
I wanna say it again: The spritework brings tears to my eyes aaahh...
