Level Select

Tanglewood Level Select.png

At the copyright screen, press and hold Left+Start until the main menu appears. The cursor will be red instead of green if done correctly. Now go to the sound test and play SFX numbers 19, 65, 09, 17 (Yuji Naka's birthday and a reference to Sonic 2's level select code). If done correctly, a level select option will be added to the main menu.
