Known Issues

For the published alpha.5 preview:

• Full game incomplete. Later puzzles and the 1,000-point ending are not verified. A checkpoint catalogue is not proof of end-to-end completion.
• VM-assisted execution. Most guest game code still runs in the interpreter. Native hooks include partial paths; byte-matching does not establish a complete native rewrite.
• Local checkpoint verification required. Reference testing covers 8 warps and 7 finish steps; newer builder entries must pass your own sweep. Save-based route boundaries are warp-only and are skipped by Finish Current Step/Area.
• No cheats or quick save/load. Dev-menu warps use the game’s Restore dialog and locally generated saves.
• Linux x86_64 only in public packages. System SDL2 and glibc 2.34+ required. Physical controller/handheld testing is not established by virtual-controller gates.

Known divergences separately tracks incomplete DOS services, unvisited paths and unverified whole-game graphics, audio and timing comparisons. Optional General MIDI does not reproduce MT-32 SysEx patch maps. These are development limits, not fixes claimed to have shipped.
