Build Dates

An ID string listing the build version and date can be found at the end of the PRG ROM:

MAST910809

MAST means it's the "master" version, and the numbers represent the date. As a result, we can tell that this build was compiled on August 9, 1991.

Anti-Piracy

As with most games Konami published in the '90s, this game features a copy-protection routine. At the start of the game, the CHR ROM checksum is calculated to ensure its consistency, and a flag is set if there's a consistency failure.

If the flag is set, completing the final level will cause the game to loop back to the first level instead of playing the ending sequence.
