I'm guessing I missed a step somewhere along the way since I'm failing the same way on multiple systems.
I used these flags to compile VASM:
# building on linux
make CPU=m68k SYNTAX=mot
# building on windows.
md obj_win32
nmake /F Makefile.Win32 CPU=m68k SYNTAX=mot
I was able to build the ROM once by commenting out everything beyond day 4. However, the ROM just rendered flashing green to Gens.
I will spend some time tonight looking further into it.
Some of the game's menus do not respect (title?) safe area
If you're curious, the safe area is the region of the screen that most TV's, even really old and cheap ones, display. (in contrast to overscan, which most TVs don't display, at least to some extent) Some of the menus (like the in-game menu) and more obviously the brief "explainer" text for the controls, go outside this region. It looks something like this: (poor camera screenshot incoming)
While it doesn't really matter, (unless you are trying to play the game on a system with a display smaller than the Sega Genesis) most games tried to keep important details like dialogue or copyright notices inside this area back in the day. since they didn't know if they were being played on a "crappy" TV. Since most of the ingame interface (including dialogue) stays inside this zone, (due to being copied from Phantasy Star 3) reformatting the text in some of the menus shouldn't be a big deal. If you want more specific details, here's a nice explainer from a NES homebrew wiki.

Hey,

Controller doesn't work if connected through Team Player adapter
The title pretty much covers the entire issue. I don't know if I'm going to fix, just wanted to log it in case someone tries this controller configuration.
