Sonic 3 & Knuckles handles the amount of Super Flickies present with Super Tails as a single value in the code. Although this value is stored as a constant, this could have theoretically been used to control how many Flickies appear based on certain conditions in development.

Please know that anything regarding Sonic Origins posted on this account isn't meant to attack the game; I personally love the collection despite its flaws and lack of polish.

Also, I (the owner of this account) don't have a main, so please don't ask what it is.
