Ys: Ancient Ys Vanished
Developer: Dempa Publisher: Dempa Platform: Sharp X68000 Released in JP: July 19, 1991 This game has unused music. This game has a hidden sound test.

The SHARP X68000 version of Ancient Ys Vanished took a very different approach to remaking the game: Everything but the final tower was re-worked in some way, the shop 'portraits' were given a sense of realism that border-lined on creepy and Adol's sprite reflects what he is actually wearing. They also inverted the monster:boss difficulty, making bosses easy and regular monsters less so.

Unused Music Test

On DISK 0' is a program called gsd.x (GAME-SOUND-DRIVER) which can be used to play through all the music and sound made for the game. To access this feature, you need to:

• Boot to A> using the Human68k System Disk.
• At the A> type in "gsd ysmusic.dat yspcm.dat" to load the files required.
• After it finished loading, type in "gsd" again to bring up the sound test.
• Enter in a number and RETURN to exit.
• Tracks 1-15, 17 & 18, 20, 22 & 33-54 work.
