Bugs and Glitches

Sonic Drift 2 SMS is still in an early state so there are a number of noticeable bugs, as of July 2009 these include:

Working:

• The palette uploading routine has been totally rewritten.
• The title screen now checks if button 1 is pressed, instead of Game Gear's Start.
• The ROM checksum has been fixed, and it will boot with US/European BIOS.
• Full Screen (With occasional garbage / glitch due to the engine writing stuff outside of the Game Gear’s screen area.)

Working but faulty:

• Can't exit demo mode (you have to wait for it to finish).
• Status is shown in the middle of the screen during races.
• Some garbage is shown in the top right part of the screen during races.
• Some things look like they're cut in some screens, (e.g. tails body in the menus).

Known bugs:

• Can't pause in a race.
• Colours sometimes appear wrong.
