Nov 07 2006: Sonic 2 early prototype

Ok, this absolutely beats anything I've ever dumped and what I'm possibly ever going to dump.



Behold, the Sonic 2 early proto


For more screenshots and differences listed, see the topic on the forums.

Enjoy!

Thanks to all the donators - Execbyte, Kat, Aurochs, LocalH, Orangefox, Erik JS, CheeseBacon, ScarredSun and Cyberdude. Wow, that's a long list. Thanks guys.

PS. The level select code is Up, Down, Down, Down, Down, Up, A+Start

Edit: there are lots of discussions about the game going on everywhere, on a lot of forums, but I think the best topic is Sonic 2 early prototype on the Sonic 2 Beta forums. Check it out for lots of differences detailed and explained.

Looks like the build that appeared in the Nick Arcade show. Thanks a million!


jmr (email) (Nov 08 2006)
Wow.
...
Just wow.
Thanks, drx, and all who donated!

Also: just a nitpick: you don't need to press "A+Start" when using the level select code.
UDDDDU START works just fine.

HOLY SHIT! You FUCKING ROCK DRX!!!!!


s00pcan (Nov 08 2006)
How do you get to the level select?


larsoncc (Nov 08 2006)
I have a few prototypes that I'd like to dump to ROMS - also Genesis games. One is "Spot" and one is "Mick and Mack" - both are early builds. I also have one that is a VERY early Ms Pac Man for Game Gear. How do I get these dumped?

A much better find than the Sonic 3D cart. This is interesting. I don't quite know how to debug the game once I'm in debug mode however. OH WELL FORUM TIME


cheese007 (Nov 09 2006)
drx, I love you.

Team Sonic (Nov 11 2006)
Unbelievable, a much earlier beta of Sonic 2.....never did I think we'd see this sooner....UNBELIEVABLE!!


Philip1992 (Nov 12 2006)
What is the debug code?


Frank (email) (Nov 13 2006)
Good design!

Benjamin (Nov 17 2006)
This makes me glad that the Hidden Palace was cut from the game. Granted this is a very early build and not much time spent on the level design that's there, but it's just seems lifeless and uninspired compared to the other levels.


anon (Nov 17 2006)
Just want to say if you enter u,c,d,c,d,c,d,c,d,c,u,c you can get access to debug.


LocalH (email) (Nov 18 2006)
larsoncc: I have the capability to dump any Genesis game less than 2MB (16 meg by the old terminology). Get in touch with me and we'll work something out.

ray the squirrel (Nov 24 2006)
during the game: press start (pause) now if you press A you'll get to main screen. by holding B you can move sonic but a lot slower than normal. you can jump by pressing C. CRAZZZZZY!

i spend more time play 15 year old sonic roms than i spend playing my xbox 360.

Eduardo Knuckles (email) (Dec 03 2006)
So Good !!
I look this prototype is pretty, because this presents some of the lost sonic animation frames. Sonic get crashed when he's running and drop in a wall !

So good... Is a good idea to activate this in Sonic 2 Final !



Chris (Dec 07 2006)
rock on!


BZ (Dec 15 2006)
First the Sonic 3D prototype, and now this? Geez, Drx, where the heck can you buy prototypes? I know you can't at eBay as they don't allow it.
