Furthermore, by selecting ''Sonic & Knuckles'', the player can use the "lock-on" technology from its original cartridge version in order to link up to the other three games in the collection, making the following games also playable:
''Sonic Jam'' also included customized versions of the games, with redesigned Levels with varying levels of difficulty. When played in "Original" mode, the games are identical to their original Mega Drive/Genesis releases. "Normal" difficulty adds extra rings and alters other aspects of the design to remove some of the challenge (these versions of the levels are used when playing ''Sonic Jam'''s Time Attack feature). "Easy" difficulty removes certain stages entirely, making the game much easier to complete. Also implemented into ''Sonic Jam'' was the option to use Sonic's signature move, the "Spin Dash", in ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (on any of the above difficulties); originally, it did not debut until ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2''. ''Sonic Jam'' was also released on the Tiger Game.com portable system, featuring levels from ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2'', ''Sonic the Hedgehog 3'' and ''Sonic & Knuckles''. |
