Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (1992) was the game that introduced the Super Dash Attack. The ability, referred to as Spin Dash in later games, has become one of the most beloved features of the series and, indeed, one of the most prominent features of the speedrunning scene as a whole.
In this exhilarating movie, Aglar ( https://tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/Aglar ) speeds his way through this classic's varied acts making good use of Spin Dashes to finish them in record time. The author also controls Tails—Sonic's two-tailed foxy buddy—to allow for even faster routes and making shorter work of bosses.
This is an improvement of 00:50.77 seconds over the previous movie ( https://tasvideos.org/1779M ), thanks to better routes and general optimization as explained in the author's comments ( https://tasvideos.org/3557S ).
This movie has an Atlas Map encode ( • Sega Atlas: Sonic 2 (Mystic Cave Zone) ) of Mystic Cave zone 1, which shows the standard encode overlaid on a zoomed out map.
