No wonder the 3DO Doom was crap. Clearly, someone who was managing Data Art did not take into account the porting procedures. Ten weeks is simply not enough, no matter what one does (unless it's a very simple game you're porting). Shame, because it seems Becky did a good amount of work on it.
As for things commented out or plain unused, there are a couple more things to add to the article (if they still are in the final game).
There is a screenshot function commented out in ".../source/threedo.c".
There's also an EA logo that went unused, since it was Data Interactive who published it. EA was supposed to publish the game, but ultimately didn't. The files for that EA logo are ".../movies/ealogo.aiff" and ".../movies/ealogo.mov".

Those two are already on the page though.  The two are in the source code too, unsurprisingly, and we get to see their internal names (before the titles were generalized to "Song 1", "Song 3", etc.). I find it funny how they skipped a ton of songs. However, this is also unsurprising, given that they had little time to work on their parts.

That's a side-by-side video all right, but both videos are showcasing different things, so... well, they're comparing nothing. =|
Agreed. It should have been edited to show the stages side by side. The only comparison I can see is the title screen, but I think it would have been more effective to show the two versions back-to-back. (For each part of the video, I would have done it to show the prototype first, then the final version.)
I have to scroll between parts of the video for any effective comparison (e.g. For Zangief's stage, I have to jump from 5:07-6:39 for the prototype to 22:28-23:53 for the final version).
A quick note about Zangief's stage: I did note that in the prototype version, they drew the exit sign in such a way that it can be easily misread (It's supposed to read "выход" ("exit"), but in the protoype, it looks like it's "выхоя" (which is gibberish). This was obviously corrected for the final version.

Glad to hear about this! More games should have their debug builds preserved. Also, definitely mention that Review Menu stuff.

I have it too from when Rare Witch Project just uploaded the ROM. The debug stuff has been bothering me. I saw from that Rare dev it was functioning, but yet the controls for it do not seem to work all that well.

GlitterBerri thought that it would be tougher to navigate when all the prerelease stuff was combined by system. As in, tens of thousands of images filling up a whole section, since several games can have thousands of images and stuffing them all into a section is tedious to navigate.

七條敬重 is Shichijo Keicho and 林高志 is Hayashi Takashi.

Oh, 七條敬重 can be read as Shichijo Takashige too and was likely intended to be read that way (Japanese names can be read a lot of different ways). Whoops, should have checked a little more.

Looks like it's "shrink", but transliterated into Japanese (and in hiragana).

A very rough drawing of something that came into mind after a brain fart. Enjoy.

Found some more stuff in the ROM!
While in retrospect I don't think that sign I mentioned earlier is a foreign language (the more I look at it the more it just looks like "ANAL"), I'm pretty certain this bit CAN be translated from japanese.
Indeed, it can. アイテム転送 translates to "Item Transfer". As for that sign, I'd say it's a fictional alphabet based loosely on a real runic alphabet. Finally, as for that monkey, it looks quite a bit like Abu from Disney's (TM) Aladdin (note the hairstyle, the hat, and the vest). It could just be me though.

How in the hell did Abu end up in the game?
It's possible the EPROM used to burn the final game onto once had Aladdin on the SNES. A dump of the Simon Wai Sonic 2 beta had stuff from Chiki Chiki Boys on the MD/Genesis. Curious to know where it was found within the game. Specific hex addresses would be nice.

Sounds a little suspect, to be honest. Which version of KidPix were you using for Windows? I tried it with Mac KidPix 1.1, the earliest version I can think of that was released by Broderbund, but nothing happened. I tried every modifier key with no results. I'd probably guess it would be in either KidPix 2 or Studio, since both of those came after the versions programmed solely by Craig.
If you want to look inside, there's Super ResEdit, a modified version of ResEdit which can search through the 68k code of a Mac program. This does require knowledge of the 68k assembly language.

I don't honestly know what version I have, I've long since lost the one I had as a kid. I found it downloadable online somewhere on a CD-ROM image, it doesn't have anything that seems to indicate a version number that I can find but it says "C 1992 Broderbund Software, Inc." on the title screen.
I myself suspected KidPix 2 and Studio but I was completely unable to find a copy of either one at the time, for download or sale...
Probably Kid Pix Companion then. Both titles can be found on the Mac Garden, but they do need a Mac emulator like Sheepshaver or Basilisk II. You can find tutorials on the internet, if you're clever with a search engine.

Indeed, it is. It's one of the demo discs that patches the glitch for those two games.
@dbg_01 We mentioned this already on the wiki, but it's nice to see the files themselves.
