Notes

• An NTSC build dated four months before the final.
• Seems to be a limited demo build with a level select on the title screen.

  • At the top of the screen, it says "May Demo Version 1.5A".

  • The health bar and magic meter are very different.
  • Invictus can wield all three weapons at the start of the Rome level but only uses the arm blades for it in the final game.
  • The select weapons text is different.
  • The grab the rope text is different.
  • The camera work in the Rome level is different.
  • The arena you enter after using the rope has a completely different design.
  • The Rome level music is very different.
