    I noticed an extra route in one of the marble zones with knuckles, that's nice but I found it going backwards while thinking "I'm sure this is not normal" :v:

    Are the achievements apple exclusive? I cannot find any achievements in my Sonic 1 game on android.

    Speaking of, is it possible to destroy Labyrinth's boss in this version? I know you could in the original with some good timing.

    I've played up to Marble Zone so far (using a Galaxy S3) and haven't had any issues. I usually struggle with touch screen games but I've really been enjoying this. Looking forward to future releases!

    Here's your level select. I'll record some debug shenanigans later. But yeah, you can add a 7th emerald which right now I assume allows for super sonic if set right. Items can be adjusted from S1, S2, S1+S3, and S2+S3. Obviously the selections for the speed caps we've all come to hate. Spindash off would have been a nice option to select from the menu, but oh well. S1 Spikes should be obvious as well. I have not tried the "Player" option yet, but it goes from 00-03, leaving 4 options. Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Super Sonic? Haven't tried it yet...

    Player:

    00 - Sonic & Tails
    01 - Sonic
    02 - Tails
    03 - Knuckles

    Also I don't know if its been mentioned yet, but touching A G E S on the SEGA screen while playing in Sonic mode will bring up the dev easter egg from the original game naka and everyone's names.

    Trapped in my own thoughts.
    Two stageplays, a screenplay, and an album
    S3 items? Is that just monitor graphics, or does that mean lightning shields and the like?

    No the S3 items actually work. Just grabbed a lightning shield and it works as it should. I'll record it later.

    FUCKING WHAT?! SUPER SONIC AND ELEMENTAL SHIELDS?!?!

    EDIT: Right, context so it doesnt get deleted. I'm stunned by this, I didn't think SEGA would allow you guys to put something like the element shields and Super Sonic seeing as they didn't give you the freedom to add a stage in Sonic CD. but it is just game machanics compared to adding a whole new stage so I guess there cool with it.

    Thanks Tax and Stealth, this just made my day after that dissapoint new sonic game announcement. Can't wait to access the debug mode and have some fun! :D

    I CAN PLAY AS SONIC AND TAILS? HOW COOL IS THAT! My face was stuck in a derp position for about five minutes. This is just... so cool. So cool. This could have been the 20th Anniversary title and I would have been fine. Here's to Taxman, Stealth and the upcoming Sonic 2 remake.

    EDIT: By Sonic and Tails I meant both of them together, Sonic 2 style.

    You can play as s&t normally by beating the game with all emeralds, but if you not done that yet I guess the level select page will be easier.

    I've still not figured out how to do it on iOS yet. :(

    I feel confident saying this: Taxman and Stealth are the best thing to happen to Classic Sonic since Sonic & Knuckes. Ready for Sonic 2!
    And Sonic 5 :v:

    Well, I finished the game today. I apparently retained my Sonic 1 skills from the old click wheel iPod version, seeing as how I beat the game pretty easily, and earned half of the achievements doing so (including the Labyrinth Boss perfect run).

    I clicked SEGA letters but when I click start, I still go to game instead of level select. Hmm,gotta try again..

    Edit:

    Jesus christ how happy I feel right now. This Sonic 1 game brought back of my childhood where I first found out codes and was like HOLY SHIT or finding new secrets out of Sonic games.

    The feeling trying out something and can't wait to see what happends.
    That huge joy is inside me, my face is stuck in :D whole time. It's so amazing. I feel like I'm a child again: Thank you sooo much Stealth and Taxman.



    I'm not sure did they do this or not, but it's worth a try though, if I get the title screen to work....I gonna find out does Tails becomes super, but I wanna find it out myself.


    Edit 2:

    Got it. I put 2 thumbs at the screen at the same time and slided. I know Guess Who said about 2 thumbs, but I had no idea what he meant, now I know what he meant.

    You have to [inlinespoiler]tap using two fingers (your thumbs probably work best)[/inlinespoiler].
     
  20. Pfft, I'm not interested in any of...OH MY GOD LOOK AT ALL THIS STUFF!!

    Seriously, Sonic 3 Shields, Super Sonic, The BETA stuff, hell I wouldn't be surprised if Old Labyrinth Zone, Sparkle Zone and Clock Work Zone are hidden in there either! Really seems like you guys wanted to make this THE version of Sonic 1 to have.
