Going right onwards from there leads the player into a glitched version of the second area, with an improper background palette and the lower half of the chamber becoming a BottomlessPit due to the scroll boundaries not being set properly. Additionally, the Sub-Tank, if not collected yet, has a glitched sprite.

* RealityEnsues:
** On occasion, the game reminds the player how heavy the enemies are when certain ones crash to the ground, causing collateral damage.
** Storm Eagle's boss fight is two-fold: starting with the upper armor of the Death Rogumer getting blown off, his ship falls when he's defeated because his explosion ruined the already damaged ship. If you backtrack, his stage is slightly shorter because the ship's gone.
*** In addition, the falling ship crashes into the Power Plant, causing serious damage. So when you visit Spark Mandrill's stage, the floor no longer has electric shocks, the stage in general is hit with periodic blackouts, and the miniboss there no longer has power to use its lightning gun.
