Alright, let's see here...
Well this game was actually pretty good. The graphics are great (if not a bit squished together), the music is great, (but if you found a better way to loop, it'd be better), and the boss was, eh. Although the game would be better with more bosses and levels, it's just not what I was looking for. Your description was very misleading. This is nothing like the original. Also, no matter what direction you are facing, when you are stopped you will always face left. This drove me insane. Speaking of left, find a way to fix that at the beginning of the level. If you do go far left, you fall into a bottomless pit. Also, unlike the original game, you can't spindash. And then there's the timer. In sonic, the timer doesn't count down. It counts up.
What I'm trying to say is, play a little more original sonic. If you really want classic sonic fans to come to your games, you should study up more on the subject. C'mon, you can do better!
