Field notes
The page includes a quick playbook for keyboard, touch, and controller input, including the original game’s rule that a player needs at least one ring to survive a hit. It credits Sonic Retro’s Sonic 1 disassembly as the build source and says the character and boss art was adapted to the Genesis sprite format. The page also states that the project is unaffiliated with Sega, the NFL, and the named teams and players.
