*They don't seem to have finished the controls yet - there's no analogue yet, and spindash is buggy on 3D objects like the bridge. The control scheme is different, A is spindash, and B and C jump. On the final Saturn version, B is spindash, A and C jump.

*Sound and music is not fully implemented or is broken in this version. The Title screen plays the ring loss sound effect repeatedly. No music or sound effects are used during gameplay.

*This seems to be after they've started enhancing the game for the Saturn, but long before it got finished. Green Grove and Rusty Ruin have some (not all) effects, like the extra sprites and floors, 3D water and bridge, and so on, but the rest of the zones don't have any new graphics at all.

*Rusty Ruin Act 2 has a monitor that had a 100 on it. There was a shield of some sort there in the final. Around this time, whenever a shield was used, it would appear around the Flickies, but not around Sonic.
