Lol. I propose isolate in source level unfinished games. In module.mk move code to scope UNFINISHED_OBJS. And concatenate them if RELEASE_BUILD not set.
Os: windows, symbian.

Is it normal to run unfinished games in release?

If the game in question shares a lot of the underlying engine code of an already supported game (Rex Nebula, in this case) it would be pretty useless (and a waste if time and resources) to add code which explicitly forbids the "yet not fully supported" game than to work towards supporting it completely.
Just look at the Wintermute engine/games.

May help simple exclude detection code in release build. It's good to exclude dragonsphere folder in module.mk from release build.

Fixed by adding a subengine for V2 MADS games in c6b164a0aa75ae18aa42a639c5591bef4cf316ec
You are not reading the messages. The game has clearly set ADGF_UNSTABLE flag. The users will be warned that the game is not supported unless they deliberately suppressed that warning.
Lol on you.
