Sonic ReOne is a hack created by DeltaWooloo which takes Sonic back to where he originally started 29 years ago in South Island. This hack features new palettes that cycle through every act just from bright morning to dark evenings. Iconic features from classic Sonic games arrived in this hack (see the features below) Eggman pumped up his bosses to make it harder when you annoy him by hitting him. The level design is a mix between linear and platforming which is something you see in Sonic games, but be careful that you don't go too fast. Eggman placed badniks and springs to prevent you from going to the end. The music is catchy and fun to listen to and suits the mood of the zones.CREDITSLevel designs: DeltaWooloo with some help from Dj. Joker27Music composers: Dj.
