Notes

  • Plextor drive dumped the disc in scrambled mode. Descrambled version is included.
  • Unreleased game
  • The loading screen is a bar on the bottom-left of the screen made up of squares of many different colors. The screen glitches a bit, too.
  • The top-left of the screen is overlaid with 4 lines that oscillate in length throughout
  • There is no audio in the first part of the opening sequence
  • The cut scene where music finally plays is still pretty rudimentary, with the angle of view wrongly positioned against the ground
  • Title screen is improperly zoomed in
  • While there is music in various points, no sound effects have been implemented yet.
  • Options menu gives the option for Secret Codes.
  • Debugging options are available by default
    • Controller rumble feature is even a feature
  • The player can choose between a paperboy or papergirl
  • The map can be selected
    • There is even a Training stage
  • There needs to be a fair bit of optimization, as the game loads after nearly every menu selection
  • In-game, the player must throw the morning paper at the required number of houses under a timer.
    • The player can make the bike jump with the O button
    • R2 freezes the game when held down
    • R1 throws a paper, which the player has a limited number of. A trajectory arrow indicates where the thrown paper will land
  • Controls are rather floaty, with the player easily drifting in the air when jumping
  • Score system based on the least number of newspapers thrown (misses), completion time, etc.
  • 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: Yes
