Notes

• Contains source code and other left overs on certain sectors of the disc image.
• All tracks and boats are unlocked by default.
• Trainer, a track unused in the final, is placed on the track select in this build.
• All of the menu screens have differences compared to final.
• The controller config screen is present, but it doesn't actually affect the control bindings in any way.
• There are two extra executables, both dated earlier than the one used. HYDRO.BIN, dated 8 days earlier, and HYDRO.ELF, dated 7 days earlier. The latter is 25mb in size and contains a significant amount of debug info.
