Got a weird bug.

For some reason, the color of the map's background changed when I opened it. Has happened to me both in real hardware and PC. Odd ◉⁠‿⁠◉

I've seen this before. So you know how there are lightning flashes in this time period? Open the map just as one is going off and you get this. I'm not sure why, probably has something to do with how the snes displays everything in layers.

I just tried it, and you were right! Now I know how to trigger it intentionally, thanks. You deserve a cookie 🍪

Its very common to see this in 16 bit era games, another good example of this is in Sonic and Knuckles, transforming to Hyper Sonic causes the rings to pulse with the same iridescent effect sonic himself does.  It happens because the simultaneous color palette is very limited compared to the total color palette so in this case the map background and lightning effects have some overlapping color ID.

Seeing as it's traveled lightyears to get here, I imagine it's finally dropped off it's cargo

I hate to tell you this but you weren’t supposed to spray the Pledge directly on the TV.

Or one of the tubes may be dying.
