Sonic CD has been unofficially ported to the Sega Genesis as part of the 2024 Sonic Hacking Contest. This fan project aims to bring the classic game, originally released for the Sega CD, to the Genesis/Mega Drive platform.

Well, I watched the trailer and read the pinned comment, as instructed.

I'm very interested to see how the special stages are handled, because IIRC that's the one element of the game (other than the CD audio tracks and FMV) that uses any features of the Sega CD that the Genesis itself theoretically can't natively do. The main 2D gameplay is obviously no problem for the base Genesis hardware.
