I like this a tiny bit more than sonic 2 I think. definitely has favorite soundtrack and visual flare out of any of the classic sonic games. The level design is also great for the most part, I like the more maze like design it really compliments classic sonic well. The environmental storytelling here is really solid, too, as funny as that is to say for a classic sonic game. The main theme of nature vs. technology is taken up to 11 here and i kinda love it.
My main issue with the game is going for the true ending though. Time traveling could've been more fine tuned, there's a limited amount of opportunities and they're all only one time shots to get them right. You also have to run for way too long in order to time travel, it doesn't really work with the level design philosophy of this game. On top of that it feels like the ratio of future to past signs is 3:1, frustrating because the future is basically pointless. the machine hunting itself is fine, can be a bit hard in some areas, but overall pretty fun.
EDIT: on another playthrough, I actually found the machine hunts to be very fun and fit it with the overall design of the game.
Despite my grievances with the game however, it was all around a pretty fun time. Also helps that those greviences can be completely avoided on other playthoughs....
