Sonic Classic is an in-progress fangame made by Hez, creator of Sonic 1 PC. It's essentially the same as Sonic 1 PC, except with a variety of new levels. The game gives you the ability to play as three characters —Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles— and your own custom character. The game also features past elements from games, as well as new gimmicks.
Story
The story takes place essentially right after Sonic and Knuckles. Robotniks Death Egg has crash landed returning to South Island, and it’s up to our heroes to finally destroy his plans for good. While Robotniks ship crash landed, so did you. You are now on yet another part of South Island scurrying to find your way back to where the Death Egg landed before Robotnik can get it back up into the sky. During all the commotion, the Chaos Emeralds lost themselves in Seven mysterious zones. It’s up to you to collect 50 rings and hit the star posts to obtain entrance to these Seven Mystery zones! Therefore, the three begin their Journey of South Island, each taking their own unique abilities with them, taking different paths, each in search of the remaining Chaos Emeralds. Good luck!
Characters
While playing Sonic the Hedgehog Classic, you will be able to experience the different gameplay of three characters. They all have unique differences which make them able to find different paths than before.
Sonic the Hedgehog
We know very little about Sonic's past; he was supposedly born on Christmas Island and that he has frequented around South Island, and that he and Dr. Eggman have a fierce rivalry. Beyond that, though, his past is a complete mystery. Sonic is something of a nomad; he travels from area to area of the Earth searching for new things to see and do, rarely stopping for anything or anyone unless he's needed, often times getting himself involved in Eggman's schemes to take over the world.
Miles Prower
Although he can fly like a helicopter, he also enjoys flying Sonic's red biplane, the Tornado. As the series progressed, it was obvious his interest in the old biplane went farther than just piloting it- Tails is a mechanical genius with intelligence comparable to Dr. Eggman's, and soon after, many modifications to the Tornado, as well as new biplanes, were added to his arsenal. He also operates a small blue submarine called the 'Sea Fox' and a F1 racer called the 'Whirlwind S7'.
Knuckles the Echidna
He is a red echidna whose quills look like dreadlocks. According to the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis games, Knuckles is 15 years old. He was first featured in Sonic the Hedgehog 3. However, in the Sonic Adventure games, he and Sonic had their ages switched, making him sixteen. His name came from the fact that two of the knuckles on each of his hands are actually sharp spikes. Knuckles is very strong. Objects like strong walls and large rocks are nothing to his two fists. This is why he's the power member of Team Sonic. He also has the ability to glide by trapping air under his dreadlocks.
Controls
There are many different control sets you can choose from
Keyboard
Essentially the same as any megadrive game. The arrow keys are used for direction, and the space bar is jump.
