Trivia

Glitchedcountryzone

Glitched Country Zone due to programming error.

  • Sonic's sprites were taken from Sonic The Hedgehog 3.
  • Miscellaneous sprites in this game such as demo frames and the ending are from Sonic 3D Blast.
  • Levels after Country Zone will glitch up in graphics for an unusual, unexplained reason. On real hardware, the graphics glitch up on a color system; on a mono system, they display just fine.
  • The art on the original standalone cartridge was taken primarily from Sonic the Hedgehog: The Screen Saver.
  • The Frame 2 animation of Sonic is taken from the cover of Sonic 3D Blast.
  • On the ending screen, the text "THE END" is rendered in a font from PCPaint.
  • Sonic's sad face in the Game Over screen is a edited version of his happy face on the menu screen of Sonic 3D Blast.
