Any SP gameplay tips?

I dunno if this is the place to ask or not, but I'm actually trying to get better at SRB2, and mostly so I can try making a WAD. I'm playing as Sonic (Sonic & Tails) right now, and he seems a little hard to control when I start going towards his top speed and aiming his thok. Anything I can do to try to correct myself, like braking techniques or whatever? I'm using mouse and keyboard.

Start with stationary objects, like item boxes and springs, and practice targeting them with the thok. Then work your way to moving objects, like enemies. Start small with the Crawla, then gradually go up to enemies like the green and brown Jetty-Syns and Eggman.
Detons can't be thokked into, since they blow up on contact, regardless if hitting a wall, floor, ceiling, object, or player, so keep that in mind as you practice thokking around.

Also practice bouncing on enemies and such. There's a bunch of Crawlas in the start of GFZ1, use them to chain bouncing! And if one's pretty far away, use the thok. It's like the bridge between two cliffs.
