Revision as of 13:14, 22 April 2018

Back to: Sonic the Hedgehog CD (prototype 510)/Comparisons.

While in a healthier state than Wacky Workbench and Stardust Speedway, Metallic Madness is still devoid of rings and has several palette issues.

Act 2

Act 2 is more sparse, with no enemies in sight and several key objecs missing. It can't be completed without debug mode.

In the bad future version, you're greeted with palette errors in the background.

Taking a cue from the original Sonic the Hedgehog, act 2 has circlar objects that Sonic can run around, and in this prototype, smaller versions are supplied too. Sadly the small variants don't work properly.

Perhaps surprisingly given the trends in this prototype, these tubes do work, but many are missing lids. The buttons designed to open those lids appear to have corrupted graphics, and don't do anything when pressed.

This one in the bad future can freeze the game.

In the past, all sorts of objects are placed in strange locations.

The objects allowing Sonic to go behind these rotating shutters have yet to be implemented. Instead Sonic has to negotiate holes in the floor.

Sonic is not shrunk at any point in the level, but collision issues mean Sonic can squeeze through the gaps anyway.

Act 3 brings in some new issues. In the good future version of the zone, the background flashes.

Corrupted bumpers.

Objects missing in act 2 exist in act 3.

Eggman appears in Metallic Madness, but his attack patterns make him almost impossible to hit without rings. He also corrects the flashing background when he arrives.

The flowers in the 510 prototype are unique to each zone. Like the other later zones, the Metallic Madness' set use the wrong colour palettes.
