SONIC.EYX

Sonic.EYX is a fan-made horror game and ROM hack that builds on the popular "Sonic.exe" creepypasta universe, but with a more disturbing and unique twist. Created by a user named Kaua16 and launched in 2022, the game is centered around a corrupted version of Sonic the Hedgehog. This version, known as Sonic.EYX, features grotesque changes to Sonic's appearance, such as long arms, a singular massive eye, and sharp, bloody claws, embodying a more visceral sense of body horror than its predecessors.

In terms of gameplay, Sonic.EYX initially feels like a normal Sonic the Hedgehog game, but as players progress—usually controlling Tails—the game becomes increasingly glitchy. The atmosphere shifts dramatically, with eerie glitches and intentional game crashes. The deeper you go, the more it becomes clear that Sonic is no longer the hero, but rather a malicious entity that controls the game itself, leading to unsettling sequences where Sonic.EYX breaks the fourth wall, making players feel as if their computer and privacy are under threat. These features are a core part of what makes Sonic.EYX particularly frightening to players, as it induces a sense of paranoia. oai_citation:4,Sonic.EYX | Know Your Meme oai_citation:3,Game Jolt - Share your creations.

The character of Sonic.EYX also became popular in fan content and mods for other games like Friday Night Funkin' oai_citation:2,Game Jolt - Share your creations.

Powers and Stats

Tier: At least Low 2-C, likely far higher

Name: EYX (Also known as Draenog or Cynffonnau)

Origin: Sonic the Hedgehog Editable ROM (Sonic the Hedgehog horror spinoff)

Gender: Unknown (Male as Draenog and Cynffonnau)

Age: Unknown

Classification: Enigmatic entity, living virus, possibly a demon

Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Large Size (Type 0: Draenog and Cynffonnau are 8'2" and 7'3" respectively. It's true form is apparently 34'6"), Size manipulation (Can become far larger in its lesser forms), True Flight, Possession, Bloodlust, Reality Warping, Telepathy, Magic (Gave two people a heart attack) Technological Manipulation (Exists inside Sonic Editable ROM as a virus. During the game, attempts to log into the player's internet and use their webcam), Limited Fear Manipulation (Causes fear by any sight of the game's webpage, or by playing the game. Although, this power is weak at best) Limited Shapeshifting (Can transform back into a normal-looking Sonic, but only for a limited time), Elasticity and Body Control, Necromancy (Revives its victims as undead, eldritch abominations) and Corruption (Those killed by EYX can be heavily deformed physically, and incur symptoms such as memory loss, emotional corruption among numerous other effects), Fourth Wall Awareness, Pain Manipulation (Every person killed by EYX is forever doomed to feel the same pain they felt while dying. For example, with Tails), Fire Manipulation (Killed Tails by burning his head off), Should have all the powers of Sonic or Tails

Attack Potency: Universe level+, likely far higher (Far stronger than base Sonic, capable of effortlessly killing Classic Sonic characters, including Ray and Tails, who are capable of fighting those empowered by a single Chaos Emerald or the Phantom Ruby. Numerous attacks by EYX can corrupt and even crash the ROM he resides in, which at least contains a single Universe. He is also capable of doing this on his own accord. Frequently resets the game on his own.)

Speed: Immesurable (Effortlessly faster than every other character, who are capable of moving in a timeless void. Even a fraction of his power is completely beyond the confines of the game, to the point where even forbidden Tails could move back through time to warn his past self.)

Lifting Strength: Unknown

Striking Strength: Universal+, likely far higher (One-shot Ray and Genesis Tails. Burned Tails alive. Killed Amy offscreen)

Durability: Universe level+, likely far higher (Has never once been threatened by any of his victims in any capacity)

Stamina: Unknown, presumably very high (Scaling from Sonic)

Range: Extended Melee Range, Low Multiversal with powers (Gave two people a heart attack, even after being pushed into Sonic Editable ROM)

Standard Equipment: None, but creates natural weaponry like scythes and claws using body control

Intelligence: Unknown (EYX is clearly insane, but plots against its victims meticulously. Uses Sonic Editable ROM to manipulate people into worshipping and giving things to itself)

Weaknesses: Severely weak in its eye. If either Cynffonnau or Draenog are hurt, the other will be rendered inert for a short period of time.

Note 1: More information about EYX's lore can be read on its Xcyclopedia page.

Note 2: Sonic.EYX is a work-in-progress game, with more content being added and lore updates. This may add or remove powers from EYX.

EYX actually never has a hand to hand battle with his opponents, and instead either chases them or murders them brutually outright, so most likely EYX has no true battle experience. He also rarely speaks, only speaking when he’s talking to the person playing the game. To characters inside the game, he usually does nothing but scream and play distorted music.
