Notes

  • Published by Hi Tech Expressions and developed by Software Creations Ltd. It was canceled when Ted Turner bought Hanna-Barbera in 1991 along with many other Hanna-Barbera projects being canceled. However, it's also possible that the game was canceled along with many other Hi Tech Expressions projects because of a possible company closure that same year.
  • A similar PCB was discovered in another collector's possession that was dumped with a Retrode 2. That dump was compared with this build and it is a 1:1 match. As such, this has been confirmed to be a good dump.
  • Build date was found within the ROM near the header.
  • In comparison to the July 11, 1994 prototype, this build contains:
    • A different title screen that includes a proper title ("TOM VS JERRY THE CHASE IS ON!" instead of simply "TOM & JERRY"), a trademark symbol, and a high score count. The title screen also lacks the animation test for Tom that was featured in the earlier prototype.
    • Gameplay demos after the title screen.
    • Level intro title cards.
    • The score count is gray in this prototype whereas it's red in the earlier prototype.
    • The heart icons that indicate health are closer together in this prototype.
    • More, shorter levels, but with many segments.
    • The level concludes when Jerry reaches the end of the level.
