Unused Graphics#

A font file, which is much of what remains of the debug mode.

Placeholder texture.

Undocumented Command Line Parameters#

Regional Differences#

The US got a gold version which includes the DLC that was once on the game's website, plus further additional content.

Buzzy#

Buzzy was completely re-dubbed for the US market. He was originally voiced by Lewis Macleod, but the US version uses Terry McGovern instead.

Title Screen#

The loading picture was completely changed between the European and US versions. Despite the game's rebranding, the FMV intros still say "Theme Park World".
