Main Info\Introduction:
Sonic 1 DLCM Remaster is a complete from the ground up remake, overhaul and expansion (if you can even consider this as an expansion) of the Original Sonic 1 DLCM released back in 2016. It was created using the Original\Old Sonic 1 Hivebrain 2005 ASM68K disassembly.
This remastered version of Sonic 1 DLCM mostly stays close to the original version's concept whilst adding new level layouts, features, improvements and recycling some old ideas from a scrapped\lost SHC2016 Update Build that was never finished or released. This remastered version Sonic 1 DLCM was made with the intention of providing a more polished and none-rushed-glitched-slop experience, as well to replace the original release.
What Sonic 1 DLCM is in general:
Sonic 1 DLCM is a challenge based rom hack of Sonic 1, that mainly focuses on a ring attack element. With a primary objective of collecting certain amount of rings in order to progress pass certain points in the game. It also includes a very hard level known as "Secret Area Zone" and sped up final zone boss.

Game Modes:
Unlike the original version of Sonic 1 DLCM, This remastered version includes multiple game modes. That are as follows:
1. Remaster Mode:
Remaster Mode is the extended version of the main game with all the remaster elements included. In this mode the game will use the Hub World and will require you to collect 500 rings and then 800 rings later on.
Remaster Mode's Hub World allows you to not only replay acts but it also allows you to play acts in any order you wish. Which may prove to be very helpful depending on how you choose to play.
This mode also includes the optional Special Stage, where you have to find all 6 chaos emeralds in a maze like bonus level as your ring count ticks down to 0. To access the special stage. You must find a specific monitor in any of the main levels, complete the level you find it in, then find and jump into the blue entry ring that appears in the Hub World.
This mode has the following levels accessible:

Extra Notes:
Yes, I know some of the music in this Sonic Rom Hack is over-used. However I currently have limitations to what music I can use. Since I have little to no music skills and I am currently only able to port music from S2, S3K, 3DB. As well as being reliant on existing free to use tracks. So please keep this in mind if you decide to comment about music.
Also this Sonic Rom Hack has some graphical glitches that will occur occasionally (most of which I tried my best to fix).
