This is speedrun as Hyper Ashura in Sonic 3 A.I.R with Bluckles (3D in 2D Glitches).


This mod brings in the three famous glitches from Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Sonic 2 and Knuckles Chaotix into Sonic 3 AIR, with their movesets from Sonic 3D in 2D. In addition to that, every character has a new Hyper form ability.
▶ Bluckles from Sonic 3 & Knuckles comes in with Knuckles abilities, plus the insta shield and a stomp action. He is able to break most blocks like Knuckles, but has some limitations, specifically in Marble Garden and Sandopolis. As part of this mod, some blocks in Sandopolis have been changed so that they can be broken by Bluckles, but not all of them. Bluckles' blocks have a special cracked texture.
▶ Ashura from Sonic 2 comes with the fire dash in place of the insta shield. Despite being a Sonic clone the Drop Dash option doesn't work for him. Beware: his fire dash doesn't work underwater. Ashura can break rocks in Angel Island with his fire dash. This includes those blocking Knuckles' path in Angel Island 1.
▶ Wechnia from Knuckles Chaotix can fly like Tails. Compared to Tails he can carry another player underwater as well, but fly for too long and he will drop like a brick instead of slowly losing altitude like Tails. Wechnia can also break every block in the game (minus Launch Base 2 for the story events to play out properly) so enjoy explorative freedom like never before. Wechnia retains the wall break ability even when CPU controlled so you can tag team with him and open paths for Bluckles and Ashura as well.

The game's story has been slightly tweaked for all characters, and will mostly follow Sonic's story. Eggman will alternate his appearance with Eggrobo, and Knuckles has his Cutscene palette applied. Bosses will use vs Knuckles' AI whenever possible.

Note that if you play with this mod your savegames will extend up to Doomsday for every character. Do not worry though, you will be able to select "as original" by pressing up in the level selector. By pressing down you'll be able to select Doomsday and Death Egg even if the file was a Tails or Knuckles one.

Alternate Paths for Carnival Night 1, Launch Base 2 and Mushroom Hill 1 are playable from level select if the Character combination chosen can complete it (usually Bluckles, Wechnia, Bluckles and Wechnia and Ashura and Wechnia).
