{froggy in big's levels getting replaced with the collectible froggy from gamma's emerald coast is actually a feature of the character select mod, normally he's just in his normal state and is impossible to interact with outside of fishing. and i'm guessing most Big levels are too gutted to have any alternate clear condition, emerald coast especially since it's an entirely separate third act that's built off the first act. that being said, i think it should be counted as an honorary clear of the levels, as otherwise you reach the entirely uninteresting and obvious conclusion that nobody else can beat big's levels.}

{and to add on to this, i think the E-series robots are normally entirely untouchable without gamma's lock-on shots (edit: checking charriii5's video on trying to beat the whole game as Big, apparently specifically knuckles can damage the E series robots?? and nobody else can??? wild. this includes Beta, but Zeta has an invisible wall around him, so even if knuckles can trigger Zeta's hurtboxes, it doesn't matter because the hurtboxes are unreachable), the fact that you can damage them at all is another feature of the mod. similarly though, imo these should count as honorary clears, because the alternative is once again an uninteresting and obvious "no" for anyone else attempting gamma stages}

So big purple characters stop Sonic in his tracks. All Eggman has to do to win is hire Barney the Dinosaur!

i got one for ya, dead rising but you're only allowed to attack with frank's talents, no items, just things like the jump kick, roundhouse, football tackle, knee drop, etc its a pretty interesting challenge, since people sleep on a lot of frank's talents like the football tackle which guarantees a stagger on psychopaths

Yeah alot of stuff actually works in SA1 when it doesnt in SA2. Such as rockets or zip lines.

It's kinda weird hearing the random issues with the switching of characters. Unless I'm misremembering, I didn't encounter these kinds of problems when I was using the SADX Trainer (though for Big's case, I don't think there was a collectable Froggy). This was years before modding for SADX had advanced, so there was like the 2004 PC game with its incorrect windowed resolution that can be fixed by the trainer, the closing of the game if you played in fullscreen but alt-tabbed, the only level mods that aren't rearranged layouts are like two for several years, etc.

That secret big area in hot shelter is probably to get the bigger fish that I'm pretty sure never show up in the main area where froggy is at most for the A rank mission Not that I knew because I for whatever reason couldn't even beat the A rank mission in Twinkle Park despite having all upgrades (but I think there was something about an out of bounds upgrade for big to make it easier, either that or even with all three the A rank is a nightmare still)

Finally, Sonic⁶ Adventure

now we gotta do metal sonic

How'd you spindash with a lightdash charged up though? Is it a TAS run or a mod function? Cause normally it just charges up the lightdash again until X/B is let go.

I know it'd make for a more bleak video, but the swap mod makes the game behave in ways that it wouldn't normally, and somewhat invalidates any of this- When a stage loads in vanilla, every character has a setlist of objects unique to them. There are many cases where levels characters are not meant to be in are devoid of objects or act transitions making the levels unplayable or incompletable. Ironically this means your little Hot Shelter issue wouldn't be an issue (it would have no doors), but it would still be non-completable.
