Other than hitching and freezing, I don't think I've EVER seen an FPS counter hit 1. You should look into making this downloadable, because it looks really cool, and for the 2 seconds it ran decently it felt awesome to control, but man, browsers just aren't up to the task. Yes I disabled adblock plus.
 
Seems like it actually would be pretty cool if it was playable, but it really needs some sort of FPS cap option. On my gaming pc it bounces between two unplayably fast framerates, if I could just cap it to 60 I'd love to give it another try.
 
I love the ideas of this game! Playing it is just an adrenaline rush, it almost feels like a boost game in that way. And the complex move sets that are taken advantage of in the level design are fantastic. However I do feel that while Sonic's full speed feels great, his base speed is far too quick. There are sections where the player must jump onto smaller platforms to get to upper routes, but with Sonic's base speed you would almost always overshoot it. Also I feel particularly in the second half of Act 1 of Radical City Zone I just held right and got through the level with nothing hitting me, however the set pieces like the boulder rolling at you at high speeds was very exciting. Although I feel the level design in the first half was a great blend of platforming and high speeds. Overall I feel despite a few things needing to be polished, this game is very exciting to play, and has a lot of potential!
 
What browser are you using?
If playing a game goes to having specific windows settings, using a specific browser, not using a certain plugin, and to some other finnicky crap like that, it's not worth playing for me. Especially not when it's a single game from within 200+ SAGE games all in a way competing for my interest, attention and time.

Oh and yeah, using Firefox, I'm not gonna download any other ones to try this out, sorry. I'm sure you put alot of time into this project but yeeaah, not working out for me.

Have you tried Edge? Firefox has issues with hardware acceleration. If and when I release a downloadable version, its essentially gonna be a little chromium browser packaged with HTML, CSS and JS.

Also I've added a "Low Graphics" mode. Let me know if that helps!
