Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic 1

Description
Yup, it's him again. But we all know the only Shadow in S1 (made by FeliciaVal) hasn't aged well over the years, and so, I took a couple of months to develop a more presentable one.

* Controls *

> B/C: Jump
> Down + A/B/C: Spin Dash
> Jump + Hold C
> Jump + Hold C: Drop Dash
> A: Light Dash
> (Only in midair) A/B/C: Forced Rolling
> Jump + Hold Up + B: Super Shadow / Revert (needs six emeralds)
> Jump + Hold Down + B: Chaos Blast (Only as Super, drains 10 rings)


Due to some personal stuff, I haven't been able to improve the Light Dash more than planned, but I think it will be fine until the next major update I do.
And before you ask "Where's the Homing Attack?", just take note that almost everyone in the hacking scene agrees the technique is a big NO for classic Sonic games. So I made an exception here and brought the Drop Dash directly from Sonic Mania, in order to provide a bit of variety.


* Credits *

> E-122-Psi: Coding and feedback (Wouldn't make it without him!)
> JoenickROS: Custom SMPS (I Am All Of Me)
> Crash: Original Light Dash code
> MarkeyJester: Coding
> TheKKM, MotorRoach, & Kapacitado: Sprites related stuff
> J4y and Lisnovski: Additional Spritework
> VladikComper: MegBaPCM
> Gemini0: Coding and Betatesting
> Mercury: Demo recording tool
> Aier: Betatesting
> Iso Kilo: Special Thanks

===========================
* Extras *
Go play on the Sound Test these numbers for the following features!
----------------------------------------------
> 93: Get all the six Chaos Emeralds (easy way to turn into Super)
> 9E: Credits
> 9F: Ending Sequence
----------------------------------------------
-Special Moves- (you can only activate one at the time)

> 9A: Chaos Spear:
Press A to shoot, even in midair!

> 9B: Gun Mode:
Same as the Chaos Spear, but faster.

Both moves cannot hit the Final Boss for now; also these nerfs the main moveset and the ability to turn Super.
----------------------------------------------
> 9C: Speak Mode (voice clips):
Now you can make Shadow speak during certain actions, with both English and Japanese voices depending the console's region!

There's also a little easter egg at the beginning and end of the 4th special stage! (English only)
----------------------------------------------
> 9D: Deactivate everything
----------------------------------------------

Oh and, there's a little cameo on MZ right where a known plumber's face kinda shown up...

I really like this mod, probably my favourite way to play Sonic 1 so far.

great work, had a blast using it, when I wanted to access debug mode with this mod, you can only place down rings and/or super moniters once, and once you revert back and use said items, you can't access these items again, no matter how many times I exit in and out of debug mode. The other items work fine, just the rings and super moniter. Despite this, this is an amazing mod, that with or without cheats can be enjoyed and loved by many, using different game machanics and a new feature of detransforming, and whats better is that it's in a game that doesn't feature a super form. Great expireance.
