I find it really interesting that in both challenges you got stuck at the exact same spot in Hang Castle. You couldn’t clear it with only Sonic cause Tails needed to pull the lever, and you couldn’t complete it without him because you need the Lightspeed Dash

[@JennyBlaze253]

Not only that, but the only other level Sonic got stuck at, Bullet Station, was also one of the levels Tails and Knuckles got stuck at. Just goes to show that teamwork is essential if you wanna beat Eggman. ...now if only we could tell that to the past 14 years of games...

I'm pretty sure someone already made this comment but I might as well anyway xD: 6:00 You can actually make it past that section using Thundershoot with Tails. He'll convert every shot into small bursts of forward momentum without depleting the flight meter. It's slow, but it is possible to make that gap. Awesome videos as always Nate!

If I remember correctly, if you use thunder shoot, and move forward slightly, you get a very small movement without using your boost while flying. It's very small, but it would make tons of these horizontal jumps possible.

[@lolialf]

im having such nostalgia, this game was one of my childhood games

[@Groudon0199]

There are 2 flight tricks that could be used to get past some of the pole/flower obstacles. Using thundershoot stops the flight gauge from emptying for a short time, and there's a way to the flight boost without actually landing (it's been ages since I played, so I don't remember if it's possible with teams other than Rose and Chaotix, but I do remember it being very difficult to pull off if you're not flying into a wall).

[@ethan2803]

7:29 as a kid when I was playing through this level, I didn’t know how to wall-jump as sonic. Though it took me hours of trying and failing to get past it through other means, I actually ended up finding this trick with tails that’s showcased here, and it was the only reason I was ever able to complete the game. I’m sure I wasn’t the first one to do it, but I’ve always thought it was kinda cool that I figured out how to do an exploit like that at such a young age.

A lot of the times you need a long flight distance, you can do it Thunder shooting stops the flight bar from draining, so when you fly, you can move and shoot at the same time to get extra distance, and if you micromanage it, you can go far horizontally

There's this one trick you can do to go up poles without using Sonic or Shadow, you have to gather everyone with power formation (Knuckles or Omega), then as you jump and the characters fly around you, immediately switch to Tails or Rouge and then apparently you can also gain wind from that and the flight formation character can swing up.
