| − | In July 2009, he contacted Sega with plans to re-release Sonic CD for the iPhone. This lead to The Taxman being brought on board to create a new version of said game alongside Sega. Instead of being a port of the original ROM, it was re-created, true to the original game from scratch using his [[Retro Engine]]. This allowed for an array of personal control and adjustments for the game, provide a full 60fps frame-rate, and provide an aspect ratio to match the Apple device. The idea became a reality in December, 2011, with the release of the new ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog CD (2011)|Sonic CD]]''. The new game is available on PSN, Xbox Live, Steam, the Apple Store, and also as an Android app. Since then he has partnered with [[Stealth]] and worked on and released the mobile titles ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (2013 game)]]'' and ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2013)]]'' for Android and iOS .
