Sonic Advance 3 was meant to be released in June of 2004, but this prototype was released on March 21st, months before the planned release date. It's not often a Sega beta is leaked to the public before the release and is a big blunder on Segas part. Initially it was dumped on the 16th and distributed among a select few. The game is near completion but has many bugs, and was in the final bug testing phase. The levels are mostly finished, and you can play any level from startup. Super Sonic is also active and fully functional.
Glitches
- Occasionally a character will become stuck in between a piece of level and be unable to escape.
- When finishing some levels, the screen will display a blank red screen until the zooming of the text finishes.
- The main characters partner will sometimes levitate. At the end of the stages they will start their finishing pose before they even land on the ground.
