| Oh, and just for the record, we're 99.9% sure this is the same build as used on Nick Arcade. Might even be the same cart, but that doesn't really matter. |

I just found this pic lying inside the ROM, does anybody recognize those graphics from any other game? (Don't pay attention to the colors, it just didn't have a palette)
It might be just a test to get the hang of the graphic tools or somehting, anyway. |

| Just so everyone here knows, that graphic is not in standard Genesis tile format - it's one byte per pixel, and I only noticed even values under $10. It's also a straight bitmap rather than 8x8 tiles. You can view it with Tile Molester if you set it to 8bpp linear and 2-dimensional. |

Level Select
up, down (4x), up
Debug
C (2x), up, down (4x), up
I'm not really sure how to make use of the debug. The only difference I know is that when you pause it, you can quit to the title screen, play in slow motion, or advance the frame. I guess you can't place sonic wherever you want, or place items anywhere in this version. |

Have you never used debug in any other Genesis Sonic game? You press B to enter/exit object placement mode, A to step forward through the list, hold A and press C to step backward through the list, and press C to place the selected object. |

| Debug works, it's just a little tricky to activate if you're also using the level select code. You need to enter one code, wait for the demo to start, then go back to the title and enter the other one. After that, just hold A until the game starts to activate debug. |

FFFFE0:01 Level select
FFFFE1:01 Slow motion
FFFFE2:01 Debug mode
FFFFE3:01 Unknown |

If you look above, Hiroshi omitted this part. Now debug works  |

Actually, no you don't. If you input a dummy direction inbetween the codes then you can make both of them work. Basically, I do UDDDDULUDDDDCCU, works every time if you can get it input before the title screen goes away.
I guess I've been a Sonic fan for too long, as I sort of assumed it was well known that you had to hold A to actually enable debug (since that's the case in the retail carts). |

I remember that from the retail game, but this isn't the retail game. The code itself is different, so it seemed sensible that that was changed too. |
