Various Differences
General
- Game instantly goes into level select from the beginning, but anything past Blue marine 2 crashes the game instantly.
- There is no title screen.
- The character select screen is text based and doesn't have character sprites.
- There are no level intro and end title cards.
- A Debug Mode is active. Holding 2 will freeze character and allow the player to move him freely with the D-Pad.
- Rings are not lost when hit, although they still fly out.
- Red Volcano Zone is named Red Volcanic Zone.
- After defeating the Volcanic Stage boss, one can use the debug to return to the original location of the boss to view what appears to be a bell like outline. This could possibly be a mistake made by SEGA during the development process.
