Thank you! :3

Another fun trick to do in Shadow's story is, when you get control of Omega... You can actually press him against a concave corner (like the edge of an area, where two walls meet, or even cliff walls...) and repeatedly hit the jump button while the hover jets are active. If you do it right, Omega will move UPWARD instead of down, which extends your hieght to hover down from, and can force Omega into areas not usually accessible under normal play. Interestingly, Sega seemed aware of this, and placed extra life icons and item boxes in the areas reached by this bug, as if to reward you for trying.

Also, Shadowms Chaos Spear ability in rapid secession can inch you across the air to farther distances, at a slow pace, but can be a life saver if you can get enough distance away from a pit. Holding down the Chaos Spear button can also have Shadow hang freely in the air while waiting to fire it, so you can get a higher view of where to go when you rotate the camera around him.

There's also a series of bugs that allow you to finish a level normally ended by the hedgehog boys with an amigo character instead, by forcing them to clip through the walls and navigating them passed the trigger point for returning the controls to the main characters. A famous one is Knuckles in Flame Core, but you can also end Crisis City with Blaze, White Acropolis with Tails, or Flame core with Rouge... Among others.

I got plenty if you need some more ideas. :3
