1815: Sonic Triple Trouble 16-bit PC \\ Playthrough! Like Sonic Mania but w/ good level design = D
0Free loose fan game remake by @NoahNCopeland of an 8-bit Sonic game; incredible amount of gorgeous 16-bit-style graphics here and nice new music--it's kind of like Sonic Mania, but with actually fun levels. ^ D^ Also you can switch it to play like Sonic Origins, with infinite lives. : DD Downloadable from https://stt16bit.wixsite.com/sonictripletrouble16

Like Sonic Mania I ran into a thing here with jerky scrolling or framerate or whatever after playing for a while--this started coming and going after maybe halfway through or so. There's an option called "Unload Textures" that the manual (five png files in the game dir that I found after playing :P) describes as "Should the game unload unused textures after a stage? This can increase performance but will add a brief loading spike." So I'll try that next time, maybe both these games tried to get away with not keeping their memory usage clean or something and it caused problems even though I've got like gigs of RAM they shouldn't even need to be touching? : P
Anyway yeah it's pretty good! Even old Sonic stuff like inverted gravity in the space station at the end isn't too bad at all, you can turn off the weird and overly long toward-the-screen-scrolling snowboarding stage (I should'a known there was a reason they included an option to turn it off ; PPP ; D), and there were only a COUPLE boss fights where it wasn't very clear what was up. And dang does it look good, I mean some really nice sprites and textures here. And maybe I'm imagining things but I could swear the physics are even slightly better than any of the commercial Sonic games I've played. And that jungle level is cuh-ray-zayyy!
Big let-down though: no score attack. Whyyyyyyy??? I actually like some of these stages! It's got a mode that lets you play any stage you've cleared--but it doesn't save your high clear time! That's all it needed to doooooooo. ... I mean I guess I can do the bother of tracking my best time manually but man c'mon. (Even the 8-bit game had ONE score attack stage, apparently. : PPP)
I mean realistically I guess I'd just go do Sonic 1 Score Attack in Sonic Origins instead 'cause it'll save 'em and 's'got them online leaderboards and all even. But dang some of the STT16 stages are neat.
