P.S.: To reduce slowdowns overclocked emulator was used. - Hry
A random funny digitized voice quip at the SEGA logo in the beginning seems to be a running gag among the romhacking community, I just came to realize. XD
Sorry accidentally sent reply I was trying to press like
That's okay.
Revolution of sonic games!!
This hack had so much slowdown and general glitchiness, with respawning at the wrong Starposts, path swappers acting out, and Warp Rings not even showing up in multiple places. I wasn't really into the level design either tbh. It finally crashed in Tidal Tempest, and I felt like I pushed myself through for nothing.
This hack was heavy on good ideas, but I feel the makers needed more time to hone their skills before doing something this huge.
Sonic and the disjointed levels. Oh, and Shadow shows up.
34:59: If truly free, be stopped never through all that’s happening.
This is the music in the game I recognize:
Tutorial = Shadow the Hedgehog - Main Menu
Speed Up = Sonic CD - Speed Up (US)
Invincible = Sonic CD - Invincible (US)
Special Stage = Sonic Heroes - Special Stage Act 1
Boss Theme 1 = Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal - Johto Gym Leader
Act Clear = Sonic Advance 3 - Act Clear (Gold)
Bayside Atoll = Sonic Adventure - Emerald Coast 1
Frost Mountain = Sonic 3 Icecap Remix?
Neon Lights Act 2 = Sonic Adventure 2 - Mission Street
Boss Theme 2 = Sonic Adventure 2 = G.U.N. Mech Bosses
Wacky Workbench = Sonic CD (US)
Tidal Tempest = Sonic CD - Tidal Tempest (JP)
Mt. Inferno = Shadow the Hedgehog - Lava Shelter
Sunset Garden = Sonic Advance 3 - Sunset Hill Act 1
Boss Theme 4 = Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver - Wild Pokemon Encounter
Ancient City = Sonic Mania - Hydrocity Act 2
Credits = Shadow the Hedgehog - All Hail Shadow
TheMadPacX and Neon Lights Act 1 is Hulk's Theme from Marvel Vs. Capcom.
I hear it now. I thought it sounded familiar.
Lakeside Garden = Chai Kingdom - Super Mario Land
Locust Dunes is a remix of Whos Gonna Rock the Place from sonic and the secret rings
And the second locust dunes is a remix of wire sponge stage from Megaman x2
Best quality Sonic CD Implantation ever.
Is that the Pokemon battle theme I hear for the bosses? Wtf? Weird ass hack tbh.
You can also throw in Crash Twinsanity, for some reason.
Yup. The 2nd generation one
6:28 well that was nicely timed
I like how in the first public version, you get to be hyper sonic, shadow can use chaos control, and tails can drop bombs! The first public version is the better than the new ones!
AWESOME hack, by the way!!! 👍👍👍
Great choice of music. I never thought Pokemon music would be so fitting and great-sounding for an Eggman boss fight!

It's funny how Shadow has a lot,like.a.LOT.of abilities.
1.spindash.
2.Hover Air Shoes.
3.Weapon.
4.Chaos Energy.
4.1.Attract Rings to itself.
4.2.Creates a Temporary shield.
4.3.Hits everything that touches it.
5.Has a combo sequence of 4 attacks and a tackle.
6.Can spend 5 rings to make a dash run.
7. Has a Super Form.
7.1.Destroy any badnik with some psychic power.
7.2.Becomes faster when using air shoes.
7.3.Spend only 1 ring to dash.
7.4.Can cancel the transformation.
This hack is actually great. It doesn't lazily recolor zones,change music and change the names. This is one of the hacks that actually put effort with new layouts and art and many more. It has alot of bugs but if you just polish the hack it would be amazing. The music is not bad but it's not good either. But it's defiantly better than the sonic chronicles sound track. But in other words this is a really neat hack. It just needs to be polished.
NotQuiteHere very obvious troll heck his channel is straight up trolling from his fave files to his youtube name
34:59 Locust Dunes is Evil Foundry from Sonic and the Secret Rings
2:02 A wild... Voltorb? Appeared
We get to Wacky Workbench (for some reason), and *oh boy, the cardinal sin is present.*
*And then it can only be done in Tidal Tempest by grabbing a temporary power-up?*
Why does Shadow appears only once throughout the whole play through in a game called Return of Shadow?
Hmm that’s why I came here to see if there’s an actual boss battle of him. Now I won’t complete this hack.
Yeah late comment You can play as shadow in this game I did play this hack
Something went wrong when I got through first zone... In "Frost Mountain" some sprites eventually broke, and if I step on them, an error appears. What is it?
2:31 wait a minute is that background music is like megaman X6 the name stage is Inami Temple
Actually it's rather called Rainy Turtloid's song!!!!!!!!🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I thought it was Commander Yurick
AW JEEZ! Love that clip!
"Massacre Temple"
Good grief.
Yeah, with the remixed Gym theme of Sonic EXE it's creepier!! Very Sonic EXE-tastic than ever
Shadow Marble Zone. Jusy a lot more spookier with the S and K ghosts in it.
Yare yare daze.
I'm so happy I can finally turn off that annoying extended camera!
Wacky Workbench song is Techno Base Act 1 theme from a fangame called Sonic Jr!! Very resolute and epic
Yeahh, the Wacky Workbench Present song from Sonic CD US!!!
Wonderful hack...the best jack 👍👍👍
Find the ....

*Bitches
This is littery the options screen
classic sonic rather find the creator of this hack and strangle them
Ghostly Winds ow the edge
Sonic the Edgehog is back!
42:52 Cool. 43:00 Excuse me? How did Razor play horribly? He aced this AND got all 7 Chaos Emeralds!
Well I'll say this hack creator, some of the music is okay, others don't fit.
Finish the levels, edit more on the special stages, and make every boss unique and then this hack will be great. Until then, you hacked horribly. (Heh heh heh.)
Ikr
so right.when you boost with invincibility,the game f*ckin' crashes.

6:50 What's this music?
someone tell me quickly please?
What's the point in getting all the gems if you never use Super Sonic?
This hack has some pretty great level design. It's just bogged down by everything else.
What music plays in bgm#11
razor if you are reading this... I have been watching you for a few years now and has always wanted to be pro like you(what are your secrets?)
The previous version to me was the best hack (the drop dashstomp is literally the most op gimmick in a sonic game) , tho idk about this version, will have to try this game, tho gameplay wise is good, but the music seems inferior than the previous version
I played this game online, just so I can play as Shadow. It was all normal until that guy who said "Oh jeez..." in the SEGA logo came up. I literally thought I was playing a fake one. So, I came here to check if it was actually part of the game, turns out it was. I was so glad that it was part of the game. Oh, and I'm not trying to offend the creator, I'm just saying everything that happened to me.
How about call this game Edge 2:The return of Mr Edgelord
RykonHyr0Gaming 2.0ro Genius!
Sanic 2: The Return of Edgelord
Featuring:
Mr. Edgelord the Edgehog
Sanic de hedhoge
Rated E for Edge
Nah.
Call it Edge 2: 2 Edgy 2 Fast
Noice.
ow jeez
did anyone notice that massacre temple has the sonic.exe ... level theme
9:56 LETS ROCK GAMMA CRUSH!!
I have a different nit-pick about this hack. I don't like hacks in general that change and mix up drum samples and drum kits, here we can hear the sonic 1 & 2 bass drum with the Moonwalker/Shinobi III snare drum, I dislike that, I prefer to hear the original pre-set drum samples that were in the original games. Also I have to agree with Ghostly Winds that the music is pretty bad.
I will say, I'm in awe at how accurate they got Sonic Spinball's game over theme in SMPS, which eases some of my fears of it being impossible to have near-1:1 ports of GEMS songs into SMPS.
I'm... trying to figure out why this was called "Return of Shadow". He only showed up maybe one time, then never showed his face again. For all it mattered, he didn't even need to show up that first time.
Interesting hack, though. "Massacre Temple". Metal AF. Now *I* want a level called "Massacre Temple"...
It's because he's meant to be the main playable character, but they went with Sonic and Tails for this playthrough.
Emerald Coast 16 bit :D
Version final ?
The bosses theme is pokemon battle theme.
Is it just me, or these special stages ungodly fast?
Ya they where fast pennywise
Epic Boomshine the specail stages got addicted to speed after seeing how this hack got from this is fine to please stop macking this rom hack into a mess
Sorry it was a rom back I thought it was just the game and I call him pennwise because he is a clown
Kevin Powers pfffft oh snap. I agree also as for this hack i kinda wish something new was added specail stage wise i mean sonic 2 specail stages sped up like playing guitar hero to me feels lazy. Sure it ups the difficulty and reaction speed but in the end its still sonicn2 specail stages
O c'mon, they aint that bad Edit: wait nvm
26:02: Song?
I thought you played this before already
и ещё ктото дизлайк поставил?! Как же так можно!? За это лайк надо ставить!
Согласен
Поддержу!
This cool
DAMN
It's my favorite hack
How can call "Return of Shadow"?? he only appears once and then you never see him again...
He's a playable character also.
9:57
What's the song in this act?
It's Marvel vs Capcom Hulk song
u miss the 5 and 6
chaos emeralds stages
Yes! I did it! It activated!
web.archive.org/web/20171224103412/sonichacking.org/rom/116
I used to wayback machine to go to the Expo section while it was April of 2018, the upload date for this video to find the download link to rom since the link in the description just brings up an error today. Have fun.
Thx
I thought the game was wheres the dam 4th chaos emerald ;-;
Where the Massacre Temple song?
That's the Hill Gym song from Sonic EXE!!!!
Creepy😨😨😨
@@angrybombonandroid9719 Of course yeah!!
Did i hear crash twinsandy
in neon lights act 1 and 2
Link error
Wtf!? Is the special stage faster!?😂
SEGASONIC MANIA
SONIC AUTMUN MIX
Already I don't like the music for this one
EvanCaritopTV neither do I it sounds like an awkward bowl movement and the pokemon encounter music for almost beating a boss is stupid
Ghostly Winds all the Pokemon music used just feels out of place
I'm like meh on this music because I got used to the previous version which sounded better tbh
Music at 25:10
Star Feese Cortex Theme From Crash Twinsanity
Thanks so much!
The theme of the bosses is from pokemon diamond pearl and platinum btw: czcams.com/video/jtXjsh3qS8I/video.html
where's shadow?
6:55 and you can play as him
Razor & Zenon
где прежние они?
многим русскоязычным нравился ваш старый формат - czcams.com/video/MFdhnMRBLP4/video.html - посмотрите и вспомните! а я так ждал, МЫ так ждали поисков багов в sonic 4 или sonic mania..... ребята! вернитесь! где ваши прикольные обзоры багов!?
#ВернитеПрежнихRazorZenon
опомнитесь! кроме этих англоговорящих есть ещё и русские которые хотят интересного, прежнего контента который вы раньше делали!!!
(pls)?
The rom hack is sonic 3 because knuckles dropes them this time shadow see
One of the best Sonic hacks
Super Mario land and Pokemon game songs does not belong on a sonic game
Show
Why not talk?
Perfect Sonic because no commentary gameplays are nice
Насколько я помню, (давно играл в этот хак) он недоделанный и сырой
Sonic 1,2,3,4. remix
14:12
по мойму музыка 2 уровня из мегамена х6
mostra super sonic
The music is just... HORRIBLE.
Introples
The title screen is self aware... Oh jeeze indeed... Hope this hacks not too bad. Aaaand it's still bad.. Sonic got...
Got what?
And that continue sonic icon flashing at the shadow transaction scene....
Ooooh boy...This Game has still got some bugs to fix.
The music i dislike a lot it doesn't feel right at all...
The game itself well yay for making bosses fart out rings but again the developer needs to test there own game and fix things before submitting it in.
I question this games identity..
Its all over the place with bugs, graphic issues and many levels that have too much formulars that again makes me ask if this is a return of shadow why is there sonic CD elements in 1 stage?
Why are sonic 2 specail stages high on sugar rush?
And why cant the creator find music that doesn't sound like an awkward bowl movement?
The game could be better if it's not trying to force itself to be like sonic mania witch it wont due to what the hack is supplying in mechanics level design and imagination and also what this hack is lacking.
But, that's my opinion and nit picks to a good hack turning to crap.
Ghostly Winds come on dude give this hack a break. Almost all the time I see a great hack there is always somebody nit picking it and end up saying it's bad. But when it comes to generic hacks that lazily just do color swaps and a name change it gets no criticism.
This hack actually tried to put effort.
During the previous version, it was actually considered my favorite hack (because of his op stompdash), I had a lot if enjoyment, so far this new version gameplay wise seems better in every aspect and a lot more polished, it's just the music that's changed and I prefer the old music
fuck you tried yes but still has many bugs and issues need fixing.
Mgonz49 the stomp dash is cool but again in terms of coding for some areas where places are glitched up need to be fixed.
Ghostly Winds oh, but from this point it's a get good at because the last version there are annoying glitches that happen once every few acts like getting stuck in a wall and stuff, but those are avoidable if you learn to just dodge those mistakes. But I agree that it should be polished, tho soke glitches lead interesting funny moments, I just like to have fun and discover stuff
Although this version looks more polished.
Favorite glitch being while charging up for drop dash in tidal tempest past on the older version, you stay afloat on water while the water is falling down
20:48 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa scary red exe related water o h n o
Okay now give me my likes
Sonic 2, but worse.
Revolutin of sonic games is game!!!
Nice hack. Sega, take notes. He does better games than you do.
Foxy The Pirate Fox you must be a idioit then.
Am i early?
What no super sonic? 👎👎👎
You played horribly
