Hardcore Gamer: "After nearly 18 years of what ifs and what could have been, the fabled and elusive Sonic X-treme is now available to the public free of cost as a prototype, with the complete game to eventuate at some point. The last time a playable build of Sonic X-treme existed, it was the raw test engine, but the what’s playable today showcases an actual level, albeit in a raw prototype form with all the functional mechanics in place. This is attributed to the hard work of a dedicated group of independent programmers who were set on working magic with the original source code to finally release Sonic X-treme in some playable form."

I recall reading about the development of it a few years ago. All I'm going to say about it is that I'm surprised the devs remained sane.
Sega screwed those guys over big style.
