- There's an option to change the difficulty in the Options menu that was cut from the final game.
- An option to enable/disable tips is missing from the display options menu.

- The profile selection is on its own separate screen in this build whereas its part of the device selection menu in the final.
- The Spanish Mission title text is displayed on the top left and is missing the location and exact time. The final includes this extra bit of information and was moved to the top right of the screen instead.
