This is a sub-page of Proto:Sonic X-treme.

This prototype is documented on Hidden Palace.

This build has both a PC and a Saturn version. At this point in development, the code was in the middle of a huge rewrite, so many features are broken. The code wouldn't even run properly the way Jollyroger originally found it, so it had to be partially rewritten.

  • Only one level was found that works with this build without any modification (FRESH.DEF). The level is tiny, and only has one texture: a blue/purple checkerboard.
  • There are rings and enemies scattered throughout the level, but they act as blocks. Unlike v37, Jollyroger did not convert them to actors.
  • The fisheye lens featured in Chris Senn's "New Worlds" videos and at E3 is present in this build, and even works in the Saturn version!
  • The World Rotation feature that was in v37 is broken in this build. Entering Ball Mode does nothing.
  • The PC version has full animation frames for Sonic, rings, and enemies. The Saturn version only has two frames for each in order to increase performance.
