Trivia

The animals you free in the bonus games at the end of Toxic Caves and The Machine include Tails, as well as the supporting cast of "Sonic the Hedgehog" and the Archie comic book: Princess Sally, Boomer/Rotor, Bunnie, and Muttski. The Cluck bots that invade Toxic Caves and Lava Powerhouse are based on Robotnik's mechanical pet, also from the same show. Finally, the chicken bots circling the capsule in The March bonus are based on Scratch, one of Robotnik's incompetent cronies from "The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog.
