Xardion Japanese version help

[fredJ]

I tried to play the Japanexe version of Xardion, but it doesn't start with the intro like in the US version, but a map screen.
Then I tried different levels but they all simply end and you can't make progress!!

For example, I tried the stage that is the first stage in the US version of Xardion. But in the Japanese version you can't transform to a dog so you're stuck. If anyone happens to have played Xardion Japanese version, could you help?
