Lives Underflow Glitch in Sonic 2 - A Wild Glitch Appears! #shorts
4,625In Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega Genesis, it's possible to get "infinite" lives using the Lives Underflow Glitch. And by "infinite" I mean 255.
In Chemical Plant Zone Act 2, find the submerged platform just to the left of the Extra Life box. You'll see it if you jump into the liquid under the platforms that are moving on rails. Make sure you have exactly one life remaining, and bring at least one ring. Wait in the "pink lemonade" until Sonic's oxygen timer starts to count down. Then, right before Sonic fully drowns, hit the spikes below you. Make sure to aim for the leftmost spikes, or else the glitch might not work for some reason.
If performed properly, the game will think that Sonic has just died twice, and when it subtracts a life from your life total which is just turned to zero, the lives value will underflow to 255. You now have 255 lives!
