Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for SNES(Sparkster hack from Twin Eagles Group)

This hack of Sparkster comes from Twin Eagles Group, the Peruvian hacking group originally responsible for Sonic the Hedgehog 4 on SNES(the infamous Speedy Gonzales hack).

I contacted the groups leader, Mr. Byte, asking about this game as it was listed on their website, but not available for download. Unfortunately it appears the ROM was lost in a HD failure long ago, but luckily he still had the sprite animation tables available. So with that I got a Sparkster ROM and using Tile Molester and SNES Palette Editor, was able to make recreate it.

The game was also apparently released on cartridge according to Mr. Byte himself, but that's pretty rare. This is a sprite hack only, no new title(which the original that was distributed on cartridge may have gotten, Mr Byte doesn't remember..), so this can be considered an example of what Twin Eagles Group originally had in mind.

Yes, I suck at playing and the video quality isn't too good, my PC is a little messy with codecs, and this is just for demo purposes anyway.

Interesting, is it fun?

@WhiteLionness @WhiteLionness I personally prefer the Genesis version of Sparkster, since this one is much more linear and shorter feeling. But it's still a good game :) getting to play through it as Sonic makes it more interesting. If I could I'd hack everything so you could play as Sonic. Maybe turn Beavis and Butthead into Sonic and Tails? ;)

No way, you're back?

@Bloganon oh I never went anywhere ;) as far as ytp's go though I had one done but now sony vegas won't render the video due to codec issues.

I do have a sequel for Le Cigar Volont planned if all goes well though :o

Twin Eagles Group must really have something against Sonic's Spin Attack.
