About

Crazy the Hedgehog is a modification of Sonic the Hedgehog for the Sega Genisis, in which you play as an alternate dimension version of Sonic named Crazy. Crazy has to defeat the parallel of Dr. Robotnik, Dr. Mechanik and his robot army as he's attacking North Island, to find the Dimensional Gems! But this dimension isn't exactly like it's parallel, it's similar but different, its a crazy world! This hack features new level palettes and layouts.
