Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Dash & Crash are Java ports of Sonic 2, this time done by Rockpool Games.
Honestly, I was thinking this was gonna play like the Sonic 1 Java ports, but it actually controls a little better! Well, I say a little better, since it still doesn't play as good as the original Genesis version or even the RSDK remake, but it's still great for Java standards. Though, I did have an issue a few times where Sonic kept looking up even if I wasn't pressing it, but that was mainly due to an issue where pressing up while moving, then going idle causes that to happen, which definitely happened to me a bunch while using a controller. After getting used to that issue though, I do like how the spin-dash only takes one button press to go really fast, but that's probably due to Java limitations as well.
Chaos Emeralds, like the Sonic 1 port, require a certain amount of Rings to obtain. But instead of 50, it requires 100 Rings in order to get a Chaos Emerald at a starpost, which is also the same amount you can get lives from. I did manage to get All Chaos Emeralds in Sonic 2 Dash, and I was honestly a bit surprised to see Super Sonic ported over! He's of course, OP, just like how it was in the original game.
Though I didn't bother getting All Chaos Emeralds in Sonic 2 Crash, because there's a bug where whenever the Invincibility music stops, or get an extra life, or beat a boss, all of the audio goes completely silent, and it even causes Act Complete screens to lock up! I think it's probably just an emulation issue maybe, since Java emulators could sometimes be finnicky? But still, that's why I mainly used level select and didn't go for All Chaos Emeralds in Sonic 2 Crash.
But overall, these ports definitely play much better than the Sonic 1 port, and the MIDI music sounds really good too! I'd still rather play the original Sega Genesis version, the RSDK remake, or even the Origins port that uses the RSDK remake as a base over this any day, but it wasn't bad for being a one-off Java longplay.
