to get around this, you have to turn the Saturn on first and then load the game through the Start Application option for it to play normally. weird huh.

or alternately you can hold L+R buttons as you turn on your Saturn to get to the memory manager/clock/language setting screen, then exit from there and the game starts normally.
if you have the game in first and simply turn it on, Croc and enemies will be somewhat invisible and the level will have trace effects in lots of places.
did anyone know this? i didn't until today. i can't believe the game got released with this glitch. i wonder if it hurt sales or back-fired in some way on the developer.
