Amy Rose in Sonic 1

This is a hack that makes Amy Rose the primary character in the original Sonic the Hedgehog for Genesis. It is classic Amy designed after her Sonic CD appearance.

Amy’s moves are inspired by those used in her Sonic Advance appearance. She is slower than Sonic, can’t use spin attack but has other moves. An attack button has been added and other moves can also be performed by using combinations of buttons and directional pad presses.

Moves: See corresponding button-to-keyboard mapping.
Hammer Attack: Press A and Amy swings her hammer, damaging enemies. In addition, Amy can use her hammer to smash obstacles such as walls and hit springs.
Hammer Jump: Press Down + A on the ground and Amy smashes the hammer into the ground, launching her into the air.
Hammer Whirl: Press Down + A in the air and Amy swirls down toward the ground. If an enemy is hit Amy will bounce up again.
Giant Steps: Press Down + B/C while on the ground and Amy will take a giant step forward as opposed to a spin dash. This can be repeated so long as there is room. This move is good for getting up steep slopes; she can even get up slopes the others can’t spin dash up!
Upward Dash: Hold Up + B/C to charge like with super peel out.
