Popful Mail (SNES)

If you've ever asked yourself 'why can't Popful Mail crawl'... well, apparently Falcom did too, so they made a version where she can.

Both the plot and level design were shaken up compared to previous versions of the game, but the animated cutscenes and voice acting didn't make the cut (and wouldn't have fit on an eight-megabit cartridge anyway).

Debug Text#

Some debug text exists as part of the Layer 3 text table, which is loaded to RAM address 7E0789. The code that uses this text no longer exists in the final game.
