Tips n’ Tricks
Gotta go fast? Play it smart!

● Green Hill Paradise - Act 2 features accurate ​Classic Sonic physics! That means
that using the terrain to your advantage is key to playing this game effectively.
● You can perform a “Spin Cancel” By performing a Spin Dash, followed
immediately by cancelling the spin into a run. Use the Spin Cancel to traverse
steeper slopes!
● Have trouble performing accurate jumps? Try using the Stomp for a quick
descent! It will slow you down a bit, but it will help with trickier jumps.

when you should roll and when you should run!
● When faced with a half-pipe, hold the B-Button as you land to hit the ground
rolling!
● Use the numbered ​Telepads to make backtracking a breeze! Simply activate an
associated Checkpoint and use them to visit previous locations.

daunting to find everything, but it’s alright! Take a chance! ‘Cuz there is no
circumstance that you can’t handle… ​When you use your mind​.
