However, if one were to pause and unpause in the Game Boy version, the background returns to normal.Įvery time the screen changes in the Game Boy version, the screen fades to white. The background fades to black when Gex dies in the Game Boy version. The same case above goes for tail bouncing. Gex can't lick flies while jumping, rendering this unused. For some reason, these aren't used even if Gex does get up to a platform after climbing. But let's jump to the offsets of the cut levels:Ġ圆15f, 0圆2fa, 0圆3b4, 0圆3fd, 0圆409, 0圆415, 0圆421, 0圆5a7, 0圆5b3, 0圆5bf each accompanying of 8 subsequent bytes pointing out to blank text (indicated as '80', that works like a line break). It's just a dummy menu.Īctually, there are unused text strings around 0x5ccf that shows some interesting stuff:Īround 0x5ccf there's text for 'START', 'SOUND' and 'PASSWORD', but the text is not triggered on the menu because it uses graphics instead of text.Īt 0x5efd there's more text that looks unused:Ġx5f42 has 'ROCKET CHANNEL' as text, but there's none of their levels in-game (remains of cut levels?).Įven though some levels were designed to have 1 or 2 remotes (be it Red or Golden) to be collected, there's place before each text string of each level to show the level title AND 3 tips on getting the remote. Unfortunately, sound can't be affected with this menu.

Now, at the title menu, you can enter this hidden option by selecting the 'PASSWORD' item.

Use the Game Genie code 302-09B-A28 to replace the 'PASSWORD' option with the disabled one. However, the branch to this menu item just was modified to an impossible value 90 instead of 20 (the 'START' option is 10, the 'PASSWORD' option is 30, so we know for sure it was in the middle). So, we don't know if it was really called 'OPTIONS' or maybe 'SOUND'.

There are neither tiles in the graphics data of the title menu, nor script entries to handle this option, nor even a text string inside the game scripts with that menu item name.

It looks similar to the options menu in the PlayStation version. During development, there was an additional menu option between the 'START' and 'PASSWORD' options.
