Nintendo Everything

A huge glitch has been discovered in Sonic Boom. By exploiting it, a great deal of the game can be skipped.

The glitch in question lies in Knuckle’s double jump, which resets after you pause the game. This allows players to skip large portions of the game, including the final boss.

You can get a look at the glitch in action above (skip around to the 13:30 mark).
