..say if I want to see what the original title-screens were like for Cloud of Xeen and Dark Side of Xeen... is my only option Youtube?
I believe that if you delete or rename a certain file (I believe it's name contains WORLD), you will get the Darkside of Xeen title screen and can play Darkside alone.

There is actually a trick I found: If you save your game in Clouds, and then load it under Darkside alone, you will warp to the map with the same index in Darkside. This can, for example, allow you to enter Olympus early (without needing the pass).

I suggest renaming the file rather than deleting it so you can easily undo the change.

Playing Clouds alone is more involved, and I believe requires the old version of the EXE which is not included in the GOG version.
====Prereq====
Backup your files and saves before doing any of this!

====Darkside====
1. Rename "XEEN.CC" to something else and start the game.

Note: You should be able to play a "Darkside only" game without issue. You can even put XEEN.CC back and restart the game to "convert" your save to World, keeping your party.

====Clouds====
*You need the original Clouds EXE and DAT files (the EXE can be renamed for convenience)
1. Rename "XEEN.DAT" to something else.
2. Get a copy of the original Clouds EXE and DAT files.
3. Start the game using the original EXE.

Note: I have only gone to the title screen and not tried to actually play a "Clouds only" game. It might work, it might not.

Worked great. Thanks gentlemen!

While the title menu of DoX has the same music as WoX there is a unique title music for CoX.

I tried recording it with OBS but doesn't pick up audio from my soundcanvas..
