Here's a copypasta from my post at Sonic Retro:
I've been attempting to fix Classic Sonic. Here's what I've done so far:
Super Sonic is faster, jumps higher and has 1 ring per second drain. (But unfortunately still has shitty 'ol normal Sonic's midair momentum. I'll see what I can do about this tomorrow.)
Replaced the dud level 0 spindash with something more resembling the lowest level spindash from Sonic 2.
Mid-level spindash feels about right.
Removed the super fucking awful looking dust trail that follows Sonic around.
While still ridiculously OP, max level spindash is nerfed by 30%.
I also widened the gap between the three different levels of spindash speed, so you can more easily select a level. (Don't know if this makes sense, I'm REALLY tired.)
Made Sonic's acceleration from standing to walking more like the Classics.
I'll be doing more of this as I discover more things.
