That game must be super easy to speed run considering Knuckles' ability to fly and skip entire levels

hopefully it will be like darkspine's sonic 06 run where he just clipped through a million walls and skipped so much bullstuff. that's gotta be one of the most cathartic speed runs ever

AKA knuckle pause-jumping galore

Probably. I just put it here since its a charity stream.

Stream is about to kick off soon! Also will update OP with how to donate when the donate page is live.

WOO LETS GOOOO HALF AN HOUR UNTIL THE FIRST GAME
I loving love speedrunning, I even watched darkspine routing the unpatched and patched versions of sonic boom
it was sweet

Stream is live! Trihex is opening up the event with Yoshi's Island.

Holy stuff. I advice you to NOT have chat open during the entire event. It's loving horrible.

Coming up relatively soon we have Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric being run by mieDax

Stream is down temporarily but we raised over $31,000 dollars for charity IN THE FIRST GAME! That's insane!

The sonic boom one is hilarious.
