A port of the second game of Sonic (Sonic The Hedgehog 2) based on a full decompilation of the original game.

Download the APK from the Play Store of Sonic the Hedgehog 2, rename the extension from APK to ZIP.
Extract the content, go to the folder asset where you will find a file called Data.rsdk.xmf, that you have to rename to Data.rsdk (video tutorial).
With VitaShell, place the file in ux0:data/Sonic2.
User guide
