Rings of Saturn
If you're following me on X / Twitter (@memory_fallen) for my posts about reverse engineering retro games, check out RINGS OF SATURN, my Substack blog. Each week I take apart a different game and report my findings.
This week I'm featuring Off-World Interceptor (3DO) and Off-World Interceptor Extreme (Saturn and PlayStation).
I found new cheat codes for all three versions — eight previously unknown ones for 3DO and Saturn, and five previously unknown ones for PlayStation.
In the article I describe what each new code does, how I used the Ghidra reverse engineering tool to find them, and analyze some low level configuration flags that affect gameplay.
Check out the writeup here!
There are lots more reverse engineering articles in the archive. What games should I be looking at? Tell me, and I might add them to my list.
