A PAL prototype of Rocket Knight Adventures for the Sega Mega Drive.
Notes
- This build is mostly identical to PAL retail. The main differences are in the game's early program code (in the first 256 KiB), where retail has extra or revised instructions. The rest of the code is identical except for one 16-bit value.
- Many byte differences are simply caused by content appearing at slightly different locations rather than independent gameplay-data edits.
- There are no meaningful differences in the long internal game text. The ending and congratulatory text is the same, although it appears at slightly different offsets because of insertions and removals.
- The build's checksum does not match.
- This build does not have a level select menu upon start like the Jun 15, 1993 prototype.
- The date of the build is unclear. The label reads 6.2.1993. This likely means either Feb 6 or Jun 2, 1993.
Provenance
- This cartridge was obtained from a Catawiki auction in 2024. The seller was a former game store owner in Belgium.
