6 Feb 2020 19:17		No problem, have fun!
6 Feb 2020 19:23		I already got 2 achievements in Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis) :)
7 Feb 2020 6:50		BTW ColonD, can I send you a friend request?
7 Feb 2020 20:18		(BTW when I asked if Crash 2 would have achievements when loading from a physical disc, I MEANT to say: if I load a game that has achievements from a physical disc, would it work?)
7 Feb 2020 20:19		(I.E. Crash 2, Panzer Dragoon, stuff like that.)
6 Mar 2020 15:18		Does this game have a way to select any level?
6 Mar 2020 15:40		Yes. In the Options menu play these sounds once in order: 19, 65, 09, 17 (Yugi Naka's date of birth). Then, on the title screen, hold A+Start. If you restart the console you do NOT need to enter the code again.
6 Mar 2020 17:11		Ok, thanks
27 May 2020 17:18		Mastered back in my quest days. The set is tough and pretty enjoyable to play, I must say. This set contradicts the main aspect of the game: It's the easiest Sonic game of all franchise in matter of Retrogaming (before existence of Modern Sonic)
6 Jul 2020 9:08		A great set! Fun and challenging!!Thank you very much!
13 Oct 2020 13:04		Mastered. Was a really nice set. Some challenges might be hard for Sonic-Casuals.
22 Dec 2020 18:07		This set was really interesting. A lot of unique challenges not seen in other Sonic sets.
27 Dec 2020 3:26		Mastered! Thanks for the awesome set! :D
1 Feb 2021 23:59		Mastered! it was really nice to complete
1 May 2021 21:19		The tag "(Level Select Disabled)" was added by me and other devs on Level Select protected achievements! Now, this will avoid people creating tickets on them as their description is cleaner enough! ;)
15 Jun 2021 18:26		Mastered.
29 Jun 2021 18:35		this is a good game. like, a really good game. if you somehow haven't already played this play it right now
7 Jul 2021 10:51		Yo, speedrun timer for Sky Chase hasn't been submitting properly for me when I clear it. The timer keeps going throughout the rest of the game and ends on a fail when you restart.
23 Aug 2021 7:46		(...I only now realized I meant Wing Fortress and not Sky Chase. Way to go me >_>)
10 Sep 2021 4:45		@MusicalMinerDude Yep, that timer is bugged. That's why there's no official Wing Fortress Speedrun leaderboard
