Sonic 3 A.I.R. (Sonic 3 & Knuckles PC/Rom Fan Remake) released

[Fatboi1]

• The first notable change is that it's widescreen (which may be the only way Sonic 3 will ever be in widescreen as Sega insists on never remastering Sonic 3)
  
  
• 60 FPS without slowdowns
  
  
• Controller support (it's not emulation despite it needing the ROM, so it's worth pointing out the controller support)
  
  
• you can control Tails like in Sonic Mania
  
  
• option to prevent outrunning the camera
  
  
• achievements are added and unlock some secrets (from what I can tell a Knuckles and Tails mode and the drop dash from Mania are unlocked)
  
  
• you can select new level layouts or the original
  
  
• skippable cutscenes
  
  
• option to pick a remastered soundtrack or the original
  
  
• you can pick some music to be from Sonic 3 or Sonic & Knuckles
  
  
• a few optional difficulty changes
  
  
• free roam any level from the beginning
  
  
• time attack mode
  
  
• mod support

Yo, that original Sonic 3 and Knuckles is a top 5 2D platformer of ALL TIME.
And I say that as a lifelong Nintendo stan

Yup it had Sonic 3D Blast, Bug!, Echo the Dolphin, and Sonic and Knuckles...booooy you took it back...I think that was like 97/98 if not farther.

Sonic 3 and Knuckles was the most fun I've ever had playing a platformer from front to end. It's 2019 and the feeling still hasn't been surpassed.
