Beta Bonuses?

Postby rainbowsprinklez » September 27th, 2017, 4:15 am

I found a couple of bonuses floating in rom that never made it to the final game! I am looking at object maps. One is at offset 0x3dbd40. NEVER called in the object map array at 0x3d8000... I wonder if they built terrain too...

Well, a good amount of them have rockkroks in them, and none of them have the bonus exit object, but what else could it have been? A rockroc spa? last night i made an excel document for every entry in the object map array and included the name and level code with it. today i sorted that array as they appear in ROM. and i noticed a big jump from stop + go to misty mine - bonus 2. upon further investigation i found the object maps for 7 different 'bonuses'.

I'm SURE this isn't new. Just cool to figure out on your own.


***EDIT***
i found another one by complete accident. This one has 3 gnawties. What were these rooms used for???
