There is also an option in the rules to have the game automatically select Ω form stages at random; this is how stages are selected in [[For Glory]] mode. Ω form stages can also be selected at random by enabling the Ω form cursor and selecting Random on the stage select screen. Final Destination itself can be selected as a Ω form stage, but this doesn't change its layout. | ||
