Duckstation version 0.1-5325-ga6a52b31 (master)

The game hasn't been added to Redump yet so there's no hash to compare. If it's ever added I'll include the information.

Tested with all enhancements disabled. Instead of playing the two opening cutscenes, the game just automatically skips to the level select menu.

In Mednafen both of the opening cutscenes play.

http://redump.org/disc/13409/

Tested with all enhancements disabled. There are at least 4 major problems with this game so I'll go through them one by one. None of these bugs occur in Beetle PSX or Mednafen.

Firstly there's a loud popping sound on the title screen.

SLUS-00028_2022-11-07_06-27-15.zip

Second, after the captain is finished talking in the cockpit the auto-navigator voice only plays for a brief moment before cutting off.

Third, partway through the mission a video of the captain will appear on your screen. This video is completely silent and freezes, remaining on the screen forever.

Fourth, the second level, Valley of the Kings, doesn't load. It shows a bit of glitched out ground and then the game softlocks with you stuck in a black void forever.
