Sonic Origins<\/a>‘ launch yesterday saw the return of the blue blurs classic Mega Drive\/Genesis games, all bundled together on modern consoles. The most noteworthy part of the bundle is Sonic 3 & Knuckles<\/a>, which sees Sonic 3<\/a> ported to consoles with new, HD upgrades for the first time.<\/p>\n

To help make this version possible, Headcannon \u2014 one of the developers behind the wonderful Sonic Mania<\/a> \u2014 worked together with Sega to recreate the classic interlocking duo in the Retro Engine. Now that the collection is out, Stealth \u2014 the alias of Headcannon’s Simon Thomley \u2014 has acknowledged some of the problems with the final release and shared some of the complications behind them on Twitter.<\/p>\n

The full thread (which is quite long and well worth reading in its entirety) details how Stealth and the team submitted a build that they acknowledge needed some fixes, but Stealth also noted bugs in the final build that were not present in Headcannon’s build \u2014 the result of Sega’s integration of the team’s work into the overall Origins game.<\/p>\n
