Well yeah, I have got a Beta Version of "Wonder Boy in Monster World", and it has indeed some differences.

Misc.:
-The title screen doesn't use an animated color palette in the proto. The copyright is also slightly different.
-Instead of the screen, where you could start a new game or put a password, you get to a weird "stary" screen with an red gem. That gem also has got some similarities with the Choas Emeralds.
-Almost EVERY track is slowed down in the proto.
-The shops aren't functional in the proto.

Levels:
-The intro message doesn't show up, but it DOES exist.
-Some doors doesn't work, despite playing the door sound and giving Shion the "Enter a door"-Animation.
-There is a weird structure in the Beach section. The enemy placement is different, too.
The hole in the tree, that can be found in the room where you meet Queen Eleonora for the first time is already there. You can also see her sprite clearly.
-The Ice section has got non-functional doors.
-There are some debug warps, leading to various places.
-The door to Pulprit Castle (or how was it called) can be entered right at the begining.
-

Objects:
-You start with a ALL hearts. Only the first three are filled though.
-Every monster gets a knockback if you hit it.
-NPCs loading random messages, INCLUDING the intro message (which only has got a different break).
-The monsters in the Ice section and the Underwater section are missing their graphics.

This is everything, what I can point out at the moment, because I could NEVER complete the game (I don't know how to use the Ocarina... ).

When you put this on the wiki, make sure you don't call it a beta. Awesome find though!

Well, the name of the ROM claims that this is a Beta, but even if it's not, it's STILL a Prototype.
And yes, I misspelled Monster as "Monser", but this was just my clumsyness.

Remember, the name of the ROM was most likely assigned by someone dumping the data from a cartridge. They don't know any better than we do what the developers called that prototype version of the game.

Okay, so let's call it a prototype, but I can NOT change the name of the topic.

Honestly, you can call it "toaster" or "crankshaft" here for all I care. The "prototype" rule only applies to wiki pages.

Yeah, that's why i said "when you add it to the wiki." I thought that TrebleTrouble would know I meant just on the wiki and not that he had to change it here. I was just trying to warn them about the rules, because I hope they'll add it to the wiki!
