General Differences

• This is the first version to display a copyright screen after the Sega screen.
• The Level select option is now present in the main menu, but it's non-functional.
• The Options menu is now using its final layout, but Controls doesn't open its submenu yet.
• The music is back. As in the Sept. 9 prototype, only Level 1's theme is played continuously.
• The hex values have been updated again:
  • The first value is now the amount of ammo for the current weapon.
  • The second is both the status bar face's current animation and your current health.
  • The third is your armor.
  • The fourth and fifth are always 0005.
• The controls for cycling through weapons are back to their final setup.
• The other cheats are back:
  • Mode + Y is now God mode; level advance remains Mode + X.
  • The keys and full arsenal cheat only gives 500 ammo for each weapon now, as in the final game.
• The level advance cheat now bypasses Level 6.
• The final status bar is now in place, but it's not 100% done yet:
  • No numbers are drawn on the Arms panel.
  • Only the face animations for looking forward, left, and right with various amounts of health are functional.
  • The normal health face is reused for 1-20%.
  • The looking right with a bloody nose face, usually used when between 60 and 80% health, is also used when dead.
  • Likewise, God mode uses the forward facing bloody nose face.
