Alternatively, you can play the original release on real hardware/an emulator.
Alternatively there is a decompilation of the 2013 android port, which has since been ported to various platforms. Including [[Quality Of Life#QoL-Creep| backporting of Sonic's new moves]]. Widescreen, the character Knuckles, and other basic QoL.
