LSP: Sonic The Hedgehog 1 Master System - 3/6 - Jungle Zone

For the record, I do kind of use tools when doing this, which explains the lack of dying and sometimes showing off. As to what the tools are... I savestate between levels and retry each one as many times as necessary until a good run happens.

Second best music ever, by the way. This Zone is absolutely amazing to listen to. As to play...

Well Act 1 has the perfect distribution of difficulty, with many moving platforms and water traps. The Emerald is pretty well hidden too. It does suffer from some wonky slowdown near the 1-Up Monitor though...

Act 2 was remembered well in the Game Gear version for having a thing put in to counter the lack of screen size. Basically the screen doesn't scroll down so if you fall down you die. In the port, you don't lose any lives when bailing...

Act 3, on the other hand, can die in a fire. It's probably the hardest boss in the entire game. Unless you're very lucky, even a shield won't save you from those bloody balls of doom. Oh, and messing up the jump off the boss platform if you do beat him. That does happen, and it's ragequit inducing.
