* UnintentionallyUnwinnable: There are a few portions of the game where, if you are sent into the Dark World, there are no monitors to return. Most annoyingly of all, the final section of Green Hill Zone Act 2 becomes unwinnable if you get sent there after you enter the tunnel that leads you to the turnstile.

In the Dark World, Eggman is invincible, but hitting him four times in a row will make him drop a monitor, which will allow Sonic to return to the normal world and dish out damage on Eggman while he has time. Defeating Eggman also means X will not try to get you before you move on to the Egg Prison capsule.

The reason for this is so that Sonic will always have a way to temporarily return his world to normal and prevent Sonic.exe from killing him. There are also more monitors in general in the hack compared to the original ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 Sonic 1]]'', including in the fights with Eggman, because the author said that the game would've been UnwinnableByDesign otherwise, but he also stated that the additional amount that was put in wouldn't end up making the hack "too easy".
