AndreaRitsu: I was showing off the prototype on stream and noticed that it seems the entirety of the Debug options were not covered on here, so I tried to summarize what was missing as best as I could.

*An NTSC-U build dated well over a year before the final.
*There are no intro logo screens or animations - the game boots straight into the title screen.
*Completely different title screen.
**Also completely different title logo, with no resemblance to the Jurassic Park logo.
*The main menu have two options; "GAME", which starts the game, and "DEBUG MENU", which allows various settings to be picked.
**The game will only start if there are two controllers plugged in, otherwise the game will stay on the main menu.
*Two player demo featuring three stages that can be selected through the Debug Menu by changing the Scene.
**Though there are 10 Scenes in total, Scenes 4 through 10 are the same stage as Scene 1with the alternative TREX as P1 and STYRACO as P2.
