To do: Document the April 24th, 1995 prototype.

Debugging Files

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Can this debug mode be reactivated in some way?

Two unused files can be found on the disc, both of which contain code and strings meant for a debugging mode. This mode would've been controlled using a keyboard and a CD-i dev kit.

cdi_rockd

The first, larger file is cdi_rockd, a debug version of the used file cdi_rock. Its contents can be sorted into three segments.

The first segment deals with the gameplay itself, and contains lists of variables, special cutscenes, and target types. There's also a huge list of every cutscene at the segment's beginning, which has been excluded for viewing purposes.

The last segment features the CD-i graphics editor/second segment-esque strings that's ubiquitous among the debug files of CapDisc's games. It also contains the text of a memory editor made by 'VDS and JHO' - an earlier version of this editor can be seen in the debug files of Axis & Allies and Effacer: Hangman from the 25th Century.
