Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A fan-made project for enhanced ports and mash-ups of classic games, including a Sonic Advance port playable in the browser.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-29 issue.

For: Classic-game fans with their own legal copies
Worth noticing: Sonic Advance can keep settings, collected emeralds and, optionally, game files in the player's browser.

Field notes

Navigation opens a custom control-led menu, with keyboard cues, light or dark appearance, and calm-motion settings. The Sonic Advance page can remember settings and collected emeralds locally; retaining game files is optional and can be disabled. The project says it does not host ROMs or upload player files, and offers its source under the MIT License. The site also links to other fan-made work and provides an issue route for suggestions or problems.
