NiGHTS mode was changed during 2.2's development to be more accurate to the source material, including things like having the chips become yellow when Bonus Time is entered. I noticed this had a similarity to the feature in Sonic Mania where the blue spheres in the special stage would start flashing yellow-orange when you reached Mach 3, and developed the below to try and capitalise on that as a teaching method for the concept of a score multiplier being in effect.
The rest of the team didn't really like how it looked so it's not available as part of the main game's special stage experience, but I made sure to leave just enough structural code in that a two-line SOC (attached in the .zip) would be capable of resurfacing it for those curious.
Enjoy!
