Proto:Star Wars Arcade (32X)

Some prototypes of Star Wars Arcade were among the hundreds of prototype ROMs released by drx in 2008.

August 30, 1994 prototype

 * The header has a working name, "Mars Star Wars".
 * There is no music or voice samples during gameplay.
 * The Star Wars theme is a native Genesis/32X song, as opposed to a PCM capture. The song does not continue while the player is on the main menu.
 * The LucasArts logo, "Long time ago..." text, and copyright disclaimer are all missing.
 * Missions can be skipped by pausing the game and pressing A.
 * There's no indication as to how many continues a player has (as the game always says 0).
 * 32X mode is absent; the game immediately loads the mission selection screen from Arcade mode.
 * The player can pause at any time.
 * The introduction to training mode is absent

The intro is not only incomplete, but uses thinner text.

The mission screen for Level 2 has jumbled animation, due to errors loading the data. As a result, only the first frame shows up correctly in the prototype. Also, note the mild typo with "destory".
