The player can change the refresh rate or load custom saved games. A 'Motion Smoothing' option is also available which will make the game run smoother. To make the Motion Smoothing functioning correctly, the player may need to go to the Return to Title option first.
A second hidden menu with various cheat options is present in the executable. To access it, the player must use a Windows resource editor to swap the first Hidden Menu with the Hidden Cheat Menu.[2]

Final Fight
KojiChao found what appears to be a piece of concept art piece for the final boss, possibly used as part of an 'explosion' sequence after defeating the boss. The background is very dark and can barely be seen, unlike the Sonic Crackers-esque backdrop seen in the final game. The boss is also equipped with items from its third and fifth phase.
Special Stage intros
These images may have been meant to be used for loading screens shown before the Special Stage. However, since the Special Stages don't require much loading time (they appear instantly), the images went unused. Perhaps this means the Saturn special stages were originally going to be used in the PC version?
