Sonic The Hedgehog Addon

by empowered_novice

Sonic The Hedgehog Addon lets players take on the roles of characters from the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series, using abilities drawn from the games.

What it does

The addon is a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 and is not open source; it is distributed under All rights reserved. Its code and assets were rebuilt from the ground up, with reworked features and rebalanced characters, and it runs on both client and server. Architectury API, Geckolib, Gravestone: Core, KubeJS, Palladium, Pehkui, Rhino and XXL Packets are all required, and a guide in the mod explains how to gain Sonic's abilities.

Sonic's starting path begins with rings. Ordinary hedgehog quills are dyed blue, and blue quills combined with rings and four iron ingots produce a Sonic item box. Other characters swap the blue quills for a item tied to their own species. Bat Wings drop from bats and Strings come from cats, and some characters can only be found through in-game discovery.

Super forms follow the classic games: the player earns the seven Chaos Emeralds, then uses a super form for a limited time. It gives strong physical buffs, flight and upgraded abilities, and once it ends the player is debuffed for several minutes. Sol Emeralds are added as a separate way to obtain Chaos Emeralds, found in Emerald Vaults generated across Minecraft. A vault's center chest holds a drained Chaos Emerald, and a character with a super form available can recharge it with chaos energy.

Key features

  3. Super forms

    Players collect the seven Chaos Emeralds to access super forms that give physical buffs, flight and upgraded abilities.

  4. Emerald Vaults

    Sol Emeralds lead to Emerald Vaults found across the world, which hold drained Chaos Emeralds to recharge.

    Bat Wings drop from bats and Strings come from cats, adding new materials to the crafting progression.
