How to use Super and Hyper Sonic – Sonic Origins Plus
Super Sonic is available in Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic 2, and Sonic & Knuckles.
He is invincible, runs faster, and jumps further than regular Sonic. There are also Super versions of the other characters, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy.
In order to play as Super Sonic, you need to collect all of the Chaos Emeralds in the Special Stages in a game, and then have at least 50 rings on you.
If you then jump and press up on the face buttons, you will transform into Super Sonic.
What is debug mode? – Sonic Origins Plus
Debug mode allows you to turn Sonic into an item such as a Chaos Emerald, a Super Sonic power up, and Ring boxes.
Another benefit of debug mode is that it will allow you to move through the game obstacles and go straight to the end.
Here are the controls when using debug mode:
- Right on face buttons – Switch between item and Sonic
- Down on face buttons – Change item
- Up on face buttons – Place item
How to enter Hidden Palace Zone – Sonic Origins Plus
Hidden Palace Zone is a single Act Zone that was originally cut from Sonic 2. This is a fully built level with new enemies and a new boss at the end.
You can find it in Mystic Cave Zone Act 2. You can reach this naturally or from the level select.
Once in Mystic Cave Zone you need to follow the bottom path and you will come across hanging switches which will allow you close bridges in order for you to cross them.
The third switch you find on the bottom path has an open bridge on the opposite side of the pit.
Don’t pull the switch and instead jump into the pit to find Hidden Palace Zone.
