since it’s out of my hands now, i’ll explain what genesγs was from its starting point in 2020.

(some of this might or might not be retconned)

• genesγs was never, and still isn’t, an exe. it was made before the craze started (albeit BRIEFLY before the craze started), and is older than even Faker. i wanted it to be a creepypasta of its own with inspiration from the vinesauce corruption.
• its name is not spelled with a y, but rather a gamma symbol.
• it initially was a zalgo-like code entity that would plaster its grim smile and sunken eyes across various videogames and not do anything life threatening, but rather fry the computer of the individual it invades after the individual played the impossible variation of the game it currently invaded. after some time i shortly dropped this idea and just made it a Sonic thing.
• the story took place over the course of green hill zone and marble zone, but the zones’ assets would feature quite a few corrupted assets with that blocky texturing but a strange black root texture accompanying said visuals.
• badniks are slower, but attacking them causes the animals inside to have hit-boxes, and constantly leap around the stage. they would be highly dangerous, making attacking enemies a hazard.
• eggman himself would be the entity’s main vector, having buffed up or unfair variations of the two boss fights.
• after beating the green hill wrecking ball fight, the explosions to the eggmobile cause eggman to have a charred, burnt sprite that stays persistent into marble zone.
• sonic’s burning death being a result of the fire eggmobile boss’s fireballs never despawning, causing sonic to constantly take damage and then subsequently burn to death.
• the game would have ended just frozen on the sonic has passed screen after sonic died, instead of saying “game over”. the game would remove itself from the computer and take the computer’s memory with it (yes this was the idea in 2020).

if anyone has additional questions about the old version, i am obliged to answer.
