When "Sonic and Knuckles" was released, fans were disappointed to find that "Lock-On Technology" didn't apply to Sonic 1 in the same way it did with the second and third games.
Some speculated that there were technical concerns.
"Knuckles the Echidna in Sonic the Hedgehog" is the result of longing for this lost opportunity, and the desire to prove that, from a programmer's standpoint, this was not impossible.
I have reverse-engineered and adapted assets and code from "Knuckles in Sonic 2" to give Sonic 1 a complete facelift in this regard, featuring all things "Sonic" changed to "Knuckles", including perfect replicas of his signature moves, minor tweaks to prevent him from getting stuck, and even a few bugfixes.
