The only Sonic themed game to appear on the Mega Drive 32X (or Sega 32X in the US, or Super 32X in Japan, or... 32X Mega Super Woo someplace else), Knuckles Chaotix stars Knuckles, not Sonic. In fact, much like Tails' Game Gear outings, Sonic is nowhere to be seen.
Taking his place are the Chaotix Team, which consist of Vector the Crocodile, Mighty the Armadillo, Espio the Chameleon and Charmy Bee. As they walk hand in hand to defeat Eggman, over the hills and far away... their legend will never die. Erm... what am I talking about?
Tips & Cheats
Sound Toggle: At the Sound Test screen press either X or Y (you need a Mega Drive 6-Button control pad) to toggle between Stereo Modes and to adjust the speed of the music. Nice.
Amy Cameo: If you set the first nine MARS color codes on the color test to 00 00 00 06 0B 11 00 08 17, Amy will apear on the sound test screen and do a cute little dance to the music. She a will also say "COOL SWEET & CATCHY!"
Level Select and Debug Mode: Once again in the MARS color codes set the first six to 06 0B 11 04 00 04, and you will get level select on the main menu, and debug mode in the levels. You can also choose any character combination you want and and time of day for the level. Sadly in this games debug mode you can not place objects (so sadly no object art.) To use it, press start in a level to move freely about. Hold 1-3 buttons to move faster! Still pretty cool, ey?
