This version of Sonic Unleashed is a vastly different version when compared to its higher-end counterpart. While the story is pretty much the same, it is notable for having vastly different level design and control schemes.

Hmmm...
To do:
Many tutorials/missions feature strange stuff out of bounds that hint at earlier layouts.

Unused Graphics

Trial Version Leftovers

These graphics can be found in one_wii/title in the directories labeled TGS, and exist in both Japanese and English.

Unused Sun and Moon Medals

These are unused Sun and Moon Medal graphics which are earlier versions of the medals seen in the final game. Interestingly, the Werehog life icon is shown here which is not present on the map in the final game. These textures can becan be found in the one_wii/work directory in the KeyMain.onz file.

Unused 1-up Item Box

UnleashedWii 1up.png

In Apotos' 2nd nighttime tutorial, an unused 1-up item box is loaded outside of the mission barriers, where a regular secret item box normally exists. The graphic is taken from the 2006 version of Sonic the Hedgehog on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 instead of a triangular shaped item box with an image of Sonic's head used in the final game.

Its presence in a level hints that the game used to feature a more traditional lives system (in the final game, a maximum of 14 extra lives are permanently obtained only in Gaia Temples, and are automatically replenished after completing a stage). However, collecting it no longer has any effect.
