Hat Kid Unleashed

Description
- Requirements: NO Hats or Badges needed whatsoever (in fact, you cannot even use them in this level)


You can only play as Hat Kid!!! Trying to use Bow Kid or other custom mod characters could break the main player model.


Set your FPS limit to 60 or higher. Having it too low can cause some issues.


##########


Gotta go fast, just like a certain blue-blur in this fast paced level inspired by Mr. Brawls' Time Rift Zone, which was in turn inspired by fatiz' Sanic hat, made way back when.


After a brief tutorial on your custom powers designed specifically for this level, race from start to finish as fast as you can to get the best Rank for your performance.


Features include:

- A Boost System (modern Sonic style): accelerate instantly and move faster while boosting! Collect Pons to refill your Boost Gauge.

- Improved Homing Attack (again, just like modern Sonic): longer range, faster execution, easily chainable, can target some non-enemies as well.

- Light Speed Dash: zoom along lines of Pons like lightning.

- Grinding: Move across rails... I mean, Ziplines with style.

- Boost Rings and Dash Pads: 2 more ways to go fast with style. :D

- Ranking system: Get a rank from E to S depending on your time. Can you prove that you're the best?

- ????????????? (Ooh, this must be some kind of big secret! Keep your eyes peeled after the Result Screen for any signs leading to its whereabouts!)



There are a total of 9 Rift Tokens to collect!

5 of them are hidden throughout the main course (like Red Rings),

3 you can get for achieving the top 3 Ranks,

and there's 1 more hidden somewhere in the Tutorial.

Try to get them all. ;)

Special thanks to:

- Magus for all the testing and bug finding

- Elsie(LCL) for motivation and mentoring

- Khanromi for allowing me to use his Change Clotching script for Kismet and help with bug finding

you've somehow made hatkid EVEN MORE UNWIELDY, although i'm not the best at a hat in time--hey, i'll admit i have cheated through most of the death wish challenges. Still a fantastic map and i would love to see a chapter using this although it might take a bit more polish before thats possible. and there was only glitch i found, which involved able to grind ininitly on one of the ziplines, but that was easily fixed with a single jump. All in all a fantastic map with quite a bit of jank, props to Abelix though.

after playing this map some of my sprint hat flairs stopped working. I could select them but if I went to another hat and swapped back it would default back to the regular sprint hat or to the last flair that worked. Like, the party hat flair worked but the dinosaur one didn't. I'm hoping a reset will fix it.

Sadly, william, it's all Kismet, and as such tied to the level itself, but if you know someone who could make something similar as a script, maybe tied to a custom badge or hat, feel free ask them.

Until then, even though it may not be the same as Boosting, try out the Sanic Hat. It's also quite fun to use.

Can you unlock this moveset to play in other levels somehow?

Still better than most Modern Sonic games.
