Very cute demo! Waterfall boss was slightly annoying but its basically the "final boss" for now so hard to complain, might just be a skill issue. Hope to see it finished one day!

I'm definitely intending to finish this someday - Just a lot of projects and personal issues at the moment.

I'm curious, what is modding Sonic 1 SMS like? Are you using a disassembly, or a hex editor? Asking because I might get into Sonic ROM Hacking

There is a feature-complete editor out there for use called STH1ED I think is what its called? You do need some hex tweaks. Once I come back to this I will probably switch to the Sonic 2 8-bit engine, we'll see.

Hi! I just finished playing Martlet's Fun Adventure, and I LOVE it! I really like the graphics, the animations, but most of all, the soundtrack of this game, it fits perfectly with the graphics! It took me like 1h to finish it bcz I looked in every lvl for any secrets and bcz I lost all my lives at the 2nd boss and had to start all over again. Anyways, since this is just the demo version, I'd rate it a 10/10! It's really well made!

Thank you so much!!! Happy to see you're excited for the final game.
