EDIT:
[spoiler:f4e3a9701f]I just beat the boss for the first time. My problem is that I am unable to jump off before hitting Eggman. But I just realized that the hit progress is saved if you die, so I can just die once and then beat him. Now I'll start playing through ERZ at once and beat this beast of a game.[/spoiler:f4e3a9701f]
[spoiler:f4e3a9701f]Wait, what? Every time I've died, I've had to start at square one and try to him him eight times again.
I've only been able to defeat him once, in Time Attack as Tails. You've gotta be careful about using him, though. Hit that fly button too much, and you go floating helplessly into space, or right into the path of Eggman's Goo Gun.[/spoiler:f4e3a9701f]
