Monitor behavior is the same as in Sonic 1-3 in this build, where you have to jump on a monitor to break it, and hitting it from underneath makes it fall.Likewise, a red Sonic is shown on the signpost when playing as Knuckles. Blue Knuckles still appears on the goal signpost when playing as Sonic or Tails.

Monitors placed with debug are Lightning Shield monitors, rather than Super Sonic monitors.Many sound effects are missing, especially in the Sonic & Knuckles Zones and when playing as Knuckles.Pressing A while the game is paused returns you to the level select screen rather than the SEGA logo screen.The Super Sonic water shield bounce glitch from Sonic 3 is still present.The Data Select music bug from Sonic 3 alone is still there.The music for the title screen, mini-bosses, Knuckles, invincibility, and collecting 1-ups are all from Sonic 3.Knuckles has a different underwater palette.(The final Sonic 3 actually had 14 save images 6 for S3 only, 8 for Sonic 3&K.) There are also only 6 save files as opposed to 8 in Sonic 3 & Knuckles, and lives and continues are not saved or shown. You can play a saved game past Launch Base Zone, but when you exit the game, the save will be indicated as "Clear", and only Zones 1 through 6 can be selected. The save format is identical to the one found in Sonic 3.No glowing Special Stage rings are present in the S&K zones.The ending sequences have yet to be implemented.Due to Hyper Sonic not being in the game yet, "S" monitors will only transform you into Super Sonic, and will still play the incorrect sound effect like in Sonic 3.Likewise, Hyper Sonic is not in the game yet. Tails and Knuckles have incomplete Super forms, since the art has yet to be implemented, thus Knuckles cannot turn Super by normal means.Some of Super Sonic's sprites are garbled when interacting with certain objects in the S&K zones.Knuckles is selectable in 1-Player mode.Note: S3 = Sonic the Hedgehog 3, S&K = Sonic & Knuckles
