- [TAS] Genesis Sonic 3 & Knuckles "ring attack, newgame+" by Evil_3D, TheYogWog & kaan55 in 1:26:11.12
This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
TAS originally published on 2019-12-23
In Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Sonic and Tails continue to thwart the plans of Dr. Robotnik, this time on the Floating Island that is guarded by Knuckles the Echidna.
In this run, you'll see the Floating Island like never before, as Evil_3D ( tasvideos.org/... ), TheYogWog ( tasvideos.org/... ), and kaan55 ( tasvideos.org/... ) use every trick in Sonic's and Tails's arsenal to collect as many rings as possible. The routing for this goal is more about efficiently moving between groups of rings than efficiently moving to the end of the stage, and is incredibly complex.
This run starts from a clear-game savestate with all of the Chaos Emeralds and Super Emeralds collected, so that collecting giant rings will award Sonic and Tails a 50-ring bonus instead of taking them to a Blue Sphere bonus stage. We normally do not accept save-anchored movies; more details can be found in the authors' comments. ( tasvideos.org/... )
An atlas encode ( • [WIP] [TAS] Sega Atlas... ) is also available, which shows the characters' positions on a zoomed-out level map, which might make it easier to follow the action.
For those wishing to play back the emulator movie file, a Gens-11b savestate for this purpose is available here ( files.tasvideo... ).
We have a number of other Sonic 3 runs: Sonic and Tails ( tasvideos.org/... ), Sonic 100% ( tasvideos.org/... ), Tails ( tasvideos.org/... ), Sonic and Tails on NewGame+ ( tasvideos.org/... ), Knuckles ( tasvideos.org/... ), Knuckles 100% ( tasvideos.org/... ), Knuckles ring attack ( tasvideos.org/... ), Amy ( tasvideos.org/... ), and Competition mode ( tasvideos.org/... ).
Tails: "Lets try to get all the rings Sonic"
Sonic: "Oh no some rings are out of bounds and unobtainable!"
Tails: "Nonsense"
weirdly unironic
@ZCS like this!
@Zach It's weirdly ironic cuz the devs were planning to have some coins in but then had to move some spaces up and thus they didn't appear and the only one that does appear is the coins in death egg which you get with the magnet shield
@@beefandmustardgaming666 Didn't remember S3K had a mario dlc
@@Gooslic LOL
I like how the game just stops giving you extra lives after 200 rings
You Don't Want an Overdose Do you?
Not true. I mean, you do get another one at like 600 rings but that's a long shot holding onto so many..
It's like "okay buddy, clearly you don't need any more of these"
@@DarknessXxMaster wait really
Technically, every 500 rings is an extra life if you keep them all by the goal. (Factoring in time bonus, a bit less than 500 I suppose.)
And that's why Tails is Sonic's best friend.

Amazing. These ring attack runs are incredible, taking into account all the hidden, normally unobtainable rings!!
Sonic: Gotta go fast!
Also Sonic: Walks back and forth to manipulate Tails into doing all the work.
29:30 to 33:00 : Excuse me, what did you DO to poor ice cap zone's programming and boss fights?
the pains of 1p sonic & tails
The work to route this alone deserves praise of the highest order

That's enough for tuition!
@@kinggalactix Maybe when the TAS first came out, it was!
And I thought it was impossible to get 999 rings without debug mode!
That's an average of 2.65 rings per second over the run.
Seeing how 24:17 was pulled off was ridiculously satisfying.
Sonic got yeeted out of existence
Tails: * ready to blast through with Sonic speed right after the end of act 1 *
Sonic: **Y E E T**
i fucking love score/ring attacks, so glad this is here
14:45
Boss: "Ha-"
Sonic: *Flies at sound speed without paying attention*
31:40 OMG that act1 boss setup was amazing.
I love the art at the beginning
Thank you 😉 I'll tell the artist
@@sylabuluswhos the artist... its been 2 years
@@Snaproductions my promise was to direct this message to the artist, SiD
This video is what you call teamwork
Tails: lets get all the rings in the entire game
Sonic: there’s knuckles only paths you know right
Tails: leave it to me (sonic heroes reference)
42:33 No, Tails joins the evil side.
yeah, Because Sonic left Tails behind, Tails joins Knuckles side and helps knuckles out when he fell off the pillars
@@mc-ate-bit3814 tried to get tails on the eggmobile once
he has no collsion
@@mc-ate-bit3814 also 2 seconds later eggman dies
Why are these runs so underrated I gotta say how the heck did the route all of this
Wow I bet routing this optimally was a *_nightmare._*
the reason why newer sonic games fail is because they dont have this amount of epilepsy in them
Nah forces was a seizure fest and still was trash don’t get me wrong sonic is my favorite gaming franchise of all time but the thing they need is sorry I need to mentally prep my self for what I’m about to say I think I’m ready they need

Well you got what you wanted with Sonic Colors Ultimate, man.
@@d_rock1219 forces suks amirite guys? Guys?
@@PaperMarioParty08 >doesn't have an opinion on forces
>proceeds to claim forces is garbage
ah yes
i should clarify that i'm not trying to defend forces, but claiming you don't have an opinion, to then contradict yourself by stating an opinion, is quite foolish
@@PaperMarioParty08 Then explain the punchline.
Oh my God it finally published! My excitement never died!
All because we were waiting for an atlas encode for a year.
I started this video and went to dinner - when I came back, Sonic had 441 rings and strange artifacts were floating around him
Now that's what I call blast processing.
Some of the most fun I've had watching a TAS. Especially enjoyable was flipping over to the zoomed-out video a few times (mainly because I was screaming "why the hell did you leave those rings!?" - the answer was always "for Tails")
That spin-dashing to the boss music in Lava reef 2 though.
Sonic: "We might need Knuckles to grab those rings right there."
Tails: "Sonic, what in the name of Iblis are you talking about?"
24:17
"Alright I'm going to collect the rest of the rings, you joining Tails?"
*"Sure thing Sonic"*
23:11 great sync
When the tas gets 999+ rings
Then you remember some poor lad had to painstaking place most of the rings by hand every act.
and some other had to test if they were reachable. ALL of them.
@@waltercomunello121 actually i think no one did considering death egg 1
@@TL1882 eh, there's 3 at the start obtainable with a little bit of backtracking.
@@alynnzz0491 still i doubt it was intended and i doubt anyone saw before release
@@TL1882 Maybe, maybe not. The only answer we can get is from the devs.
8:29 < satisfying moment button
This run is so damn clean.
This run should be called "Sonic 3 & Rings."
I totally underestimated the number of rings in Hydrocity before seeing this video, holy balls
yeah 660 can you believe it in the first act
Knuckles: I'm so punchy. You can't do anything about it!
Sonic: Nonsense! I'm fast and brutal.
8:29 RIP fps
Didn't realize there was a bubble shield spike bounce trick
1:17:11 ill always be fascinated by that Supersonic kill
Good job completing Ice Cap Zone Act 3 xD
I love the smoothness
49:33 Congratulations on 1 million points!
Now to get 1 million views 🦄
1:02 moonwalk spins dash push
Poor Ice Cap zone never caught the license plate of the truck that hit it
Deranged woodland animal and cohort robs island blind, accidentally blows up space station
Slow down the video playback speed at 22:24. I know its TAS but that is just so smooth right there.
What I don't like about TAS videos, especially categories like Ring Attack and such, is that there's so much planning, organizing and retrying to produce such an outstanding, time-consuming video, and all we can do is like, subscribe and share. None of these do such videos and their creators the justice they deserve imo.
Keep in mind a guy had to actually go through the process of coding and indicating what the TAS should do, which does involve prior planning and a lot of knwolage about the game's mechanics and how to abuse them, even if it involves inhumanly possible inputs or reaction times. Plus they just look so ridiculous and exaggerated its just so entertaining to watch LOL
It’s insane how you collected all the rings in every level. I’ve never been able to do that.
Whole game just got sent to its room with no supper.
23:09 perfect
This is....beautiful. 🥺
Time Bonus: Not bad.
Ring Bonus: YES
I was hoping to see the ring counter hit 1000+ but stops at 999. Good to know I guess lol.
Most games dont code numbers above 999 for some reason
ChrisTehMii
Not until Generation 6 at most. :3
@@JovialEclipse I know that's typically common but that extra space near the third number made me think it may actually roll to 1000.
Worth nothing is how the first revision of Sonic 2 allows you to exceed that limit by breaking a ring monitor with 990+ rings, albeit causing the hundreds digit to display invalid sprites (e.g. a colon, with 1,000 rings showing up as :000 rings).
There are so many quirky edge cases across the Sonic games like that, which is a testament to how technically ahead of their time they were.
@@soundscapesdreamland6662 Sounds interesting! I'll have to see if I can find that on RUclips.
1:24:26
Tails: Sonic! You can do it! Don't lose this!
Sonic: Heh... Don't worry, Tails I got it! *JumpSpin off at the space*
Tails: Good luck, Sonic! *Jump off on the angel island* I'm going to try...
no thats the death egg
@@cay7809 Hyper Sonic is chasing Robotnik Robo
Tails is in Angel Island.
@@keychamp122theprotogen2 oh wait I didn’t read
^^
Whoever was playing Tails in IceCap Zone was amazing at keeping up with Sonic!
Tails has never committed suicide in so many useful ways....
I have discovered areas I never new existed.
Ohh I see Tails Assisted Speedrun
Tails: "You go high, I'll go low."
If you're wondering about the other rings in different areas don't worry about it tails actually goes after those rings and when there are no more in his area he goes back to sonic.
In Angel Island Act 2, you can’t actually go through Knuckles’s route as you can’t go all the way to the bottom of his route without dying, so using different tricks, Tails glitches into Knuckles’s route many times to get as many rings as possible.
1:06:46 Congratulations on 99 lives!
1:25:35 the explosion exposes the music poly limits and gives us a cool remix
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles: Walls are a suggestion edition
As a wise billboard once said: "Got Ring?"
I'd say it was "a habit forming".
Sonic has so many rings that he can open the biggest jewelry store in the world
Huh. So Marble Garden Act 1 is the only stage to reach the ring cap. Interesting.
How Sonic and Tails finance their gambling addiction at Casinopolis zone
You mean Casino Night? Casinopolis is from Sonic Adventure.
Watching this makes me think. Damn they don't make stages like these no more
I love how good players always have way more lives than they even need. This has is just one further example.
That score was 1.54 million by the end. Crazy how many points you can get in this game, even if one of the enemies that explodes in lava reef zone doesn’t actually give you 100 points lol
Mario: so this is why i can’t get all coins without luigi.
When the speed shoes and Lightning Shield prescribed for our diagnosed ADHD OCD kicks in.
So many lives it turned into an oxygen bar
How badly do you want rings
TAS: y e s
Love this game for the sega genesis
This game breaks worse than my 13 year old brother's voice.
8:30 oh yeah that’s the stuff
42:28 sonic is now egg man
sonic
this boy, he go fast
this classic sonic puts modern to shame, even with boost
55:53 what the hell kind of awesome space fleet is that 55:55 oh
It's the platforms that appear out of the walls in the level that take up the Cloud's sprites in memory.
1:02:00 what a flex
The wtf moments begin at 0:24
I was just oh oh god holy shit the entire time
12:08 How did those players managed to make Sonic bounce on the spikes inside the bubble without taking damage? That's impossible!
Marble Garden act 1: 999 rings! #greedisgood
This must have taken forever to make!!!
Wait until hear the amount of time of Super Mario Sunshine 100% TAS
12:08 Weird thing that shouldn't happened.
1:14:26 Why does the life counter go from O6 to 99 at the beginning of Hidden Palace Zone? Edit or game glitch?
It's overflowing, isn't it?
1:24:31 Ok, it does it again at Doomsday Zone.
"Thank goodness I have, like, w-blue sky lives there."
The lives counter is going beyond 99. And going to a new zone resets it to 99 (otherwise it would eventually reach 255, then goto 0 lives).
This can be done in normal play, but I've only gotten like +12 past 99 lives....
The game doesn't expect you to get more then 99 lives, so it begins showing data that isn't the lives counter.
30:00 Glitch.......What glitch?
Doctor: Moonwalking Tails is fake!
Tails: WATCH ME! 1:20
1:02:00 nice
Love it 😀
Is it possible to continue playing in the doomsday zone and get more rings? It looks possible.
19:16 Los Angeles Mode activated
Finishing the game with exactly 151 Rings...
I see what you did there. #IlluminatiConfirmed

27:12 why didnt he go to the right to hit the capsule and end the stage instead?
mmm the synergy with tails is the best part tbh
somebody's got to do a Dorkly-style skit on this. a super meth-addict Sonic frantically craving for rings in an unbelievable frenzy while pulling off unbelievable tricks and ignoring pretty much every badnik. Tails secretly pulls the strings providing him with drugs, planning to become the richest mf in the universe; this, coupled with his unique ability to respawn endlessly if killed, makes him plan to take over Mobius and overthrow Robotnik.
a bit like what TerminalMontage did with Speedrunner Mario.
onion rings
And then Sonic spent them all sending his Chao to kindergarten
Yet they are not leveled enough to get all the Emblems.
Sonic when the rent's due:
I wish all of those games could be easy
First game where tails is useful ( Not counting sonic chaos because he cannot be a companion )
You're never grab too many rings
12:08
I'm sorry but that's illegal?
Nice game
Marble garden act 1 is 1010!
