    While I found Frantic Factory much easier compared to its other counterpart, my main issue was the final boss, where it was dangerous to get momentum and hit a boss, potentially causing you to fall to your death. One of the checkpoints doesn't work either, but judging by its position near the trap rings and how the other ones work fine, I'm going to assume that's intentional.

    Well, I can actually complete both acts of Frantic Factory now. The fake checkpoint and rings in Act 1 was a nice touch.

    Final boss is still incredibly cheap, though.

    If I remove the cliffs, it's just the same boss battle, just faster. What should I do?

    You could make the boss' movements much faster, making getting in hits a matter of skillful timing.

    Replace the cliffs with floating/moving platforms.

    I found another problem:

    Hectic Highway's boss can beaten without touching the controls. If you place Sonic on a spring and wait and he will eventually beat the boss. Try making it so Sonic can damage Robotnik in a place where Robotnik can damage Sonic. Otherwise it becomes boring and pointless.

    Okay, so I changed up the final boss. There's a minor graphic glitch before he gets in his ship, but otherwise, it should be good now. It also lowers the platform before the Hectic Highway boss.

    Also, I'll try to fix the problem that Project1114 mentioned, but I first need to find out how to change where Robotnik drops the spiked balls.

    The final boss is much better now.
