General comparisons

Expression error: Unexpected < operator. |
Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |
---|
As a prototype for the cancelled compilation Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Limited Edition, the Sonic 3 branding is used all over the prototype. Even all of the music tracks are from Sonic 3.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |

The save system functions just like in Sonic 3, in that there are only six save slots instead of eight (for reference, the final Sonic 3 actually has 14 save images; 6 for S3 only, 8 for Sonic 3 & Knuckles), and lives and continues are not recorded. It is also possible to select Knuckles when starting a new game.

A saved game can be played past Launch Base Zone, but if the player exits the game after that the save file will be marked as "CLEAR", and only Zones 1 through 6 can be selected.

The level select screen is identical to the one in Sonic & Knuckles and Sonic 3 & Knuckles, however some Zones cannot be accessed. Enabling debug mode removes these restrictions, allowing you to enter them. These levels are:
- Lava Reef 3 & 4 (Act 2 Boss & Hidden Palace)
- Sky Sanctuary 2
- The Doomsday 1 & 2 (Doomsday & Death Egg Final boss)
- Bonus 1 & 2 (S&K Bonus Stages)
- Special Stage 1 & 2

Pressing while the game is paused returns you to the level select screen instead of the Sega screen.
Gameplay comparisons

Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |

Monitor behavior is the same as in Sonic 1-3 in this build, where you have to jump on a monitor to break it, and hitting it from underneath makes it fall.
Sonic 3C 0408 |
---|
Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |
---|
Monitors placed with debug are Lightning Shield monitors instead of "S" monitors.

Blue Knuckles still appears on the goal signpost when playing as Sonic or Tails. Likewise, a red Sonic is shown on the signpost when playing as Knuckles.
Super forms
Sonic 3C 0408 |
---|
Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |
---|
Tails and Knuckles have incomplete Super forms, since the art has yet to be implemented, thus Knuckles cannot turn Super by normal means. Likewise, Hyper Sonic is not in the game yet.
Sonic 3C 0408 |
---|
Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |
---|
Due to Hyper Sonic not being in the game yet, "S" monitors will only transform you into Super Sonic, and will still play the incorrect sound effect like in Sonic 3.
Sonic 3C 0408 |
---|
Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |
---|
Some of Super Sonic's sprites are garbled when interacting with certain objects in the S&K zones.
Sonic 3C 0408 |
---|
Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |
---|
The Super Sonic Water Shield bounce glitch from Sonic 3 is still present.
Graphics comparisons

---|
Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |
---|
All of Knuckles' underwater palettes are different in this prototype.
Sonic 3C 0408 |
---|
Sonic 3 & Knuckles final |
---|
Knuckles' palette overwrites the black stripe on the bottom of Star Posts. This causes it to appear red instead of black.
