this achivement sucks. Although it is possible, the guy that made this didn't consider the bugs that you will enconter trying to beat the game.
For an example, i tried beating this with tails (because he has a smaller hitbox) and when i got damaged by the boss at metropolis, most of my rings fell through the ground and when i had 1 ring left, i got hurt and tails got stuck on the right side of the screen while my ring was at the left side, i jumped to the right in hope that i would be fast enough to reach the ring but the game didn't register the ring and i died because of the eggs that eggman uses as his shield.
I really hate this achivement and don't say that i could have used super sonic because sonic automaticly transforms once he does a small jump with 50 rings and after that its a race to reach the end of the level with 10 rings hoping that you will beat the boss in time

Also i tried downloading the rev B of the game to see if some of the bugs i found on my last playthrough were fixed but it doesn't matter because retroachivements doesn't recognize this version of the game so meh

Holy moly....I finally did it. The stages honestly are no problem. It's that final boss. Had to play it long and safe with that one. Just a Lil over 40 min run, not bad.

PRO TIP: play the game with ''Sonic The Hedgehog 2 (World) (Rev A).md''. It has less bugs than the ''Sonic The Hedgehog 2 (World).md'' version.
I didn't got this achivement with the ''Sonic The Hedgehog 2 (World).md'' before because of a bug where all my rings would fell through the ground in the metropolis boss fight
ANOTHER pro tip: in wing fortress and death egg, just be patient, take your time to hit the boss and don't rush it. For an exemple: in the death egg, hit the death egg robot ONLY when he lands on the ground

Reach death egg zone. Miss Silver Sonic/Mecha Sonic by a few pixels and hit spike. Replay the whole game again.

Excuse me while I play my Sonic music therapy playlist

Got enough practice from doing the other challenges that this is very feasible as long as you play it safe all around.
Fumbled once on the LAST hit against the final boss, and also managed to soft-lock myself in metropolis zone by spindashing and jumping into the those wall bumpers

Got it! What mostly killed me was my own impatience. Great challenge!

took several tries, mainly died to metropolis act 3. Once I got past it I locked in, ggs

How nice is it to get to the final Boss and Sonic go through egg man when he gets hit and as a result the arm kills Sonic...
This boss fight is unfair. Because of this bug you have to restart the whole game and hoping it doesn't happen again... another achievement based of "Luck"

:(

DoggettDouglasMcDog 20 Sep 2024 01:10

And again more 2 times that bug. It's unfair.

Try to practice it via level select / save states to get the timing right. Do it maybe 5 times in a row without dying and you'll most likely be set.

I hate this achievement, Sonic 2 besides having a terrible level design, and full of bugs, I don't like this game and having to repeat everything over and over again is hell, I'm playing with the strength of hatred.
