This is my true guilty-pleasure game and it's purely nostalgia. The first Sonic game I ever owned and got me interested with the series. Controls feel fine with most of the characters. Chao Garden was a great time-sink. SA1 had better mechanics that did not need to be changed here (Instant spin-dash, treasure hunting radar, Sonic's level design as a whole), but I can still enjoy playing all of the characters here over half of SA1's characters.
