BFish. | |
Gator. | |

Aquis prototype | |
Octus prototype |
Super Sonic
A palette for Super Sonic exists in the prototype. The player can see this by setting any monitor's subtype to 08, then breaking it. Super Sonic's unique sprites, speed, invincibility, jump height, and ring drain are not yet present.
Leftover Chemical Plant Zone tiles
A set of Chemical Plant Zone tiles from a previous iteration of the game can be found in the ROM.
Unused level slots
Like the final game, the Simon Wai prototype has a number of unused level slots, which can be accessed with the Action Replay code FFFE10:??00 (substituting the question marks with the hexadecimal values below). They are all completely empty, with similar broken backgrounds to Genocide City Zone and Death Egg Zone in this build
06 (Wing Fortress Zone in the final game)
10 (Sky Chase Zone in the final game)
