About this project

This is a hack which replaces the main character with Vector the Crocodile in the original Sonic the Hedgehog for Sega Genesis. Vector the Crocodile is a character first playable in Knuckles Chaotix and later playable in Sonic Heroes. His abilities are based on those found in Knuckles Chaotix. Moves include a spindash, air dash, and wall climb. The move list can be found in the readme. As in Chaotix Vector has reduced jump height and acceleration, making Vectors air dash move all the more valuable.

The hack is based on a ROM in BIN format. The patch has not been tested on ROMs in other formats. Due to data shifting in the ROM resulting in a large IPS patch the patch is in xdelta Format.
