The PAL version actually plays at the same speed as the NTSC version, but still plays a half-step lower. Geoff had to write the music in 6502 assembly language on Stephen Ruddy's sound driver. However, both of these just keep the in-game music going. There is also an unused song, which sounds like it was meant to play when the player either lost a life or got a Game Over.

This keeps the music from getting repetitive or boring, even after playing the levels for an extended period of time. Another unusual thing Geoff does is make all the level themes over 3 minutes in length, whereas most games on the NES contained songs about a minute in length. Some people who have heard the soundtrack aren't even aware of the second part because of how long the pause is, also because the level doesn't usually play long enough for players to hear it. The music for Level 2 & 4 has two different songs merged into it separated by a long, dead silence. Most of the songs don't have a melody, but rather have a bunch of rhythmic ambience with a beat in the background. Geoff does some very avant-garde things with the NES, and pushes the NES's 2A03 sound chip to its limit, even making weird sounds not heard in other games (for example, the sounds at 0:50 in Level 3). The game's music and sound effects were all written by famed video game musician Geoff Follin. Also, the music cart for the game was released by Ruddy as well. Years after the game's release, the game's programmer released a ROM of a more complete version of the game with a high scores list, and other enhancements. The fifth level is the steel mill, where you will face off with the T1000. The fourth level takes place at Cyberdyne, where you must collect the bombs. The third level takes place at the hospital where you must rescue Sarah Connor. The second level is the flood channel, which takes place in an isometric view where the Terminator must escape the T1000. The first level is the truck stop, where the Terminator must persevere through hordes of biker gangs. The game takes you through 5 levels each based on locations from the movie.
