Notes

• Prototype size is considerably smaller than retail, possibly a preview
• Weird start to the opening cut scene where a line at the bottom of the screen shrinks down before the scene actually commences
• This cut scene can't be skipped
• No main menu, loading screens, etc. From the title screen, it goes straight to the campaign, starting with prologue cut scene
• The player starts in a different part of the room, with the mission progressing somewhat differently
• Slightly different HUD
• Camera is zoomed in near Jake's head
• No on-screen prompts
• Jake randomly repeats "Ok, bye bye" after a death grunt is heard
• Miscellaneous Notes:
  • Game is emulatable: Yes (as of April 17, 2021).
  • Game contains dongle protection: No.
  • Game contains debugging symbols: N/A
  • Dump was originally scrambled: No
