Andrew, please use the internal save snapshot option when adding them to reports.

After some testing, I can't repo the corruption at the title screen, but am able to get different types of GFX garbage at the select game level screen.

This bug seems to be partially fixed as of 0.193.

Now only the "Game Level" selection screen shows problems, which seem to happen randomly:

The corruption is still there at the title screen and randomly at the game level select in 0.221. I narrowed down when it first appeared: 0.142. The whatsnew for that cycle indicates some cleanup done on the driver.

I just discovered that the same graphics glitches are present when loading the game with the Mednafen emulator.
