Sonic 1 Megamix is a multiperson assembly hack headed up by Tweaker of Sonic the Hedgehog on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. The game features the ability to play as three different characters—Sonic, Mighty, and Shadow—and features extensive reworking of the original game with new art, music, abilities and layouts, among other things.

Features

Characters and Moves

All three characters have special art (HUD, lampposts, item boxes, etc.) exclusive to that character, as well as their own end-of-act music. As Sonic, pressing A enables Light Speed Dash. As Shadow, pressing B or C twice allows for a Homing Attack, and pressing A with 6 or more rings allows a small speed boost, at the cost of 5 rings. Mighty is set to have a wall jump feature similar to that in Knuckles' Chaotix, though this has not been implemented yet (NOTE: Feature has been scrapped). All three characters have spindash.

Super Sonic is set to be in the game, though no footage of a Super Shadow or Super Mighty has been seen.

Music

Various tracks and sound effects have been imported from Sonic CD, Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Knuckles' Chaotix and other Sega Mega Drive/Genesis games, in addition to remixes of Sonic 1's original tunes.

Levels

Two modes exist within the game: normal, which features new levels, and original, which has the original levels from Sonic 1 intact. Normal levels include:

Sunset Hill Zone
Dark Fortress Zone
City Outskirts Zone
Misty Maze Zone
Starry Night Zone
Metallic Base Zone
