PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS MOD WILL ONLY WORK ON 3 AIR VERSION 24.02.02.0 OR LATER.
Agent Stone in Sonic 3 A.I.R. (aka Stone 3 A.I.R.) is a Sonic 3 A.I.R. mod that takes place in an alternate timeline of the events that transpired in Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Being a former government agent being sent out to investigate the launch site of the Death Egg on Westside Island, Agent Stone has became loyal to the evil Dr. Robotnik, and will do anything he can to assist him in repowering the Death Egg.
The mod replaces a majority of the base game minibosses with Agent Stone piloting them instead, along with Stone taking the role of primary antagonist instead of Egg Robo when playing as Knuckles. Compared to last year's entry, this version covers all the way up to Lava Reef Zone. Stone will not be present in any zones following LRZ in this version.
Features:
• Unique sprites and animations for each boss, now completely revamped by MiaCDi!
• Harder AI tweaks!
• Pacing improvements to the encounters!
• Various other changes and additions to improve upon the fights or make them more lively!
• Six custom bosses, with some exclusive to certain characters!
• LBZ1 has Agent Stone pilot a suspicious looking device to try and take down Knuckles!
• Steal Stone's ship and fend him off in his attempts to take it back in LBZ2!
• MHZ1 has a pinch phase, where you give chase after Agent Stone in his attempt to retreat!
• FBZ1 has Agent Stone pilot a terrifying Gapsule with legs you must fight as Knuckles! (Extra Slot Amy can also fight this boss!)
• SOZ1 has Agent Stone try to run Knuckles over and kick up sand in his brand new dune buggy! (Extra Slot Mighty can also fight this boss!)
• LRZ2 has a very nasty surprise awaiting the player at the end...
• Waaaaay too many palettes to choose from, plus options to randomize the palette used!
• 2 different types of boss themes to choose from for both Act 1 and Act 2 encounters with Stone:
• Unique themes composed by the legendary LunarCryptik and CartoonsAnimate22!
• All of the boss themes from Sonic 3D Blast, with Genesis arranged versions of the Saturn boss theme remixed by rosie_eclairs and HazelSpooder!
• Compatibility with various other mods! (Check the readme for the full list!)
• Quite a few silly easter eggs you may come across! (Must be turned on in mod options!)
