Now pause the game and restart. Go back into the Sound Test (Level Select) Menu, pick a level, and hold A while starting the level. The Debug Trick should work. You will know when you first press the B Button. Now the debug trick is really cool. Not only can you do the traditional stuff that you could do in the past Sonic Games (such as changing into items), but now you can choose a level of the game with a character that doesn't normally play it (in the Level Select Menu, press C to change what character you intend to use). For example, you can play as Knuckles in the Death Egg Zone or Doomsday Zone. In the end, this really glitches up your game, and you will have to reset.
