Unused Graphics

Unused Layout

Found in DATA\STAGE\2-4, which contains the graphical files for Stage 2-4, is an unused background image, labeled as p1.jpg. The layout seen here doesn't resemble any that are used by the final game.

Unused Logo

DATA\Credits\Logo.png is an unused variation of the logo seen in the game's credits; the game opts to use .jpg + .gif images instead.

Unused Area

Stage\TEST.CS, when decompressed under zlib, seems to be an early version of STAGE1.CS, which is the level parameter file used by Stage 1-1. Notable differences include lower max speed and acceleration parameters, as well as some ADDLAYER parameters not appearing at all.
