Sonic the Hackable

Project Information

This hack is currently still in development. Be in the lookout for new updates in the future.

Crush Dr. Eggman!

After Dr. Eggman's defeat in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II, the Death Egg MK II is left without a power source. Sonic, whose escape pod has landed back onto Mirage Island, is left without Tails, who seems to have landed somewhere else. Knowing Dr. Eggman's resilience, Sonic knows that the evil doctor will stop at nothing to find a new power source to breathe new life into his wicked contraption. With this in mind, Sonic storms off towards the Mad Gear, Eggman's power plant that was powerful enough to refurbish Metal Sonic. Eggman's true plans are unknown, but breaking into his base and destoying his only known source of power sounds like a good start to stop whatever it is.

Now, Sonic must travel through Mirage Island one final time to put an end to this saga once for all.

Latest reviews

ITS GREAT!
It's fantastic. I really like the use of Sonic 4 themes in it. The game delivers exactly on what it wanted to, and that is level design. Even Stealth had some issues with the spike timing in Marble Zone Act 3, and I did as well but not so badly, I think it's a bit unfair and it might be easier to some players to replicate and that's why it was overlooked, but the fact that the game gets harder or explores a way to create harder level design over the original STH is not bad.
