About
Sonic CD Restored is a speedrun mod that restores lost Sega CD speerun routes and features back to the game as well as polishes the video/audio/gameplay by restoring fidelity, fixing bugs, and providing small quality of life improvements. These changes do not move away from the spirit of the original game, so there aren’t new gameplay features like Flight Cancel...however Time Travel Overhaul is incorporated with permission purely because it was the original game designers’ intent for No Loading Time Travel to be featured. This has also been tweaked and polished to be as closely representative of how Sega would have made it work themselves.
