Proto	Final

Menus#

• The "Pad Test" option doesn't work.
• The "Trigger Setting" option doesn't have its own menu and there are only two configurations to choose from instead of four.
• The debug menu is here, and accessible as it is in the final version.

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Look into the in-game debug functions as well as the extra debug flag.

Sounds#

This page or section needs more audio. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough audio. Please fix this. Specifically: Rip and compare.

• Weapon pick-ups have different voice samples.
• Additionally, the prototype sound test only has samples 1-8, while the final has 1-15 and 0A-0F.
• Several sound effects are different, in particular effects 2-4, 6, 0C, 10, 23, 25, 27, and 2B.
• Sounds 1E, 1F, 20, 2C-2F, and 30-3F don't play.
• Music track 02 has slightly different percussion at the start.

Level Differences#

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Any other level layout and/or gameplay differences?

Areas 11 and 12 are both unfinished.

• Area 11 is extremely short and only features some power-ups and a different layout in general.
• Area 12 is missing most of the normal enemies, and the final boss doesn't seem to be properly implemented yet.
