Blast Attack

Blast Attack
This move is a simpler version of the homing attack that first appeared in Sonic 3D. In order to use this move, Sonic must first grab a Gold Shield. Upon grabbing it, sonic gains a shield and the ability to home in on and destroy a nearby enemy by jumping and then pressing the jump button again in mid-air (much like the homing attack). It is only officially named in the manual of the game and has never appeared in any game since.
