Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Beta 6 for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis was released by drx on February 23, 2008. It is also known as S2BETA6. There seem to be two versions of Beta 6; but aside from a couple bytes in the header they're identical, byte-for-byte.
Level Select code: UDDDDU, highlight 1 player, then a+start.
Debug code: CCCCCC UDDDDU, highlight 1 player, then a+start.
Level select is still Sonic 1-a-like in this build. The level select menu appears behind Sonic and Tails, and Sonic is all black. This is because, as JoseTB explained, "the first line [of the title screen palette]was the background in previous builds, but it's used by sonic in the new title screen. Of course, the level select pallet remained untouched with the change.
- Appears to be the first prototype with the options selection.
- As in S2BETA5, you can run right past Eggman in Death Egg.
- The final boss only takes one hit, most likely to facilitate testing of the newly-programmed full ending. In the previous builds Sonic and Tails just fly off to the right.
