Great Circus mystery

If you look at the offset: C449, you can find text in plain ASCII for a --- TEST MODE MENU --- with some game debug functions. There is no known code to acess it or even mention of something like this in the game.

Could some take a look at it?


-------------------------------

Trampoline Terror

This game was developed by MASAYA and announced in japan as "Explode Star" but was cancelled, later it was released as Trampoline Terror in the USA.

Great chances of finding unused art assets as it was made by a japanese developer for japan and many japanese looking games received "facelifts" came to the western world.

Edit: Things like this should go into weird discoveries instead of creatinga a topic?

Amazing work JLukas! I've found similar things in other games, would you do this "unlocking job" with them too?

The Explode Star image you linked 404s... but that's interesting; I was unaware of a cancelled-in-Japan NCS (Masaya is the name of NCS's publishing department) game, considering they have their flagship series Japan only... If you want, I could add this game to my "disassemble to do whatever" list which is already really long =P and see what I can get out of it...

EDIT found this:

the source of the broken image... still broken but the thumbnail is there...

There might be nothing and the game isn't very good, just put it far in your disassemble list

*The image works for me

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
