No foolin, we’ve got a new update sure to improve your robo blasting experience!

Major impact changes:

• Fixed savegame issues by changing target platform to Sega Genesis/Megadrive. Run it with an emulator and enjoy saving at any time using savestates!
• Reduced filesize.

This is just a small quality of life update, so no big list of changes. Have at it, and let us know what you think!

Okay what the hell.

Someone please tell me what happens when you run that ROM. I'm on my phone and won't have access to a computer until late tonight.

The megadrive port is amazing! I can't believe it runs at a outstanding 60 FPS! Did you guys happen to use blast processing?

Wow. This is really impressive, in fact, with the ability to run Genesis code, in the future we might even get the classic physics in the whole game! Sad that I can't access The Ultimate Cheat, but otherwise I'd give it the perfect score of 5/7!

EDIT: Happy April Fools! Massive kudos to VAdaPEGA for programming the Megadrive ROM. What an achievement -- it even works on real hardware via flash cart. Try it out!

Special shoutouts to Mr. Potatobadger for ripping SRB1 sprites and DragonWolfLeo for the music and additional help.
