EDGE has been released for 7 Platforms: iOS, Java Mobile Phones, PlayStation Portable, Android, Steam, Wii U and Nintendo 3DS.
The Java and PSP version feature the same level files and will be referred to as Java version. The levels can be downloaded here.
The iOS and Mobile version feature the same level files and will be referred to as Mobile version. The levels can be downloaded here.
The Steam, Wii U and 3DS version also feature the same levels and will be referred to as Steam version.

This page lists the differences between the Java, Mobile and Steam versions of EDGE. Levels not listed here are the same on all versions.

It uses the level naming convention from the speedrun.com leaderbord, which prefixes the level names with their level number in the Steam version, e.g. N01 1st contact, E01 first step etc.

The contents of this page are summarized in this spreadsheet.

Java

The Java versions (normal and extended) feature 91 level files.

Playable (90 levels)

• Normal: 46 levels; N47 push me and N48 perfect cell are missing
• Extended: 44 levels

Only in game files (1 level)

• level554 (path of piracy)

Mobile

The Mobile versions (normal and extended) feature 130 level files.

Playable (128 levels)

• Normal: 48 levels
• Bonus: 17 levels
• Extended: 48 levels; 44 levels from the other versions plus M01 minicube, M02 furious bot, M03 vertical way, and M04 cargo
• Extended Bonus: 15 levels (X01-X15)

Only in game files (2 levels)

• level535 (first step)
• level554 (path of piracy)

Mapping differences

• B16 winners and B17 zias and winners are swapped in the Mobile version, meaning that bonus level 16 is B17 zias and bonus level 17 is B16 winners.
• E03 click and E04 moving walls are swapped in Mobile and Java versions, meaning that extended level 3 is E04 moving walls and extended level 4 is E03 click.
• The Mobile version features 4 more extended levels than the other versions. These are
  • Level 10: M01 minicube
  • Level 12: M02 furious bot
  • Level 14: M03 vertical way
  • Level 19: M04 cargo

Level differences

• Between the Java and Mobile version, only four levels are different: N07 speedrun, N10 metro, N14 peripherique and E01 first step. All other levels are the same and will only be referred to as Mobile version.
• Mobile/Java levels save the time thresholds used for ranking multiplied by 100 compared to the Steam version. For example, if the time needed for S+ rank is 9 seconds, 9 gets saved in the Steam version while 900 gets saved in the Mobile/Java version. Since the thresholds are saved as 16-bit unsigned integers which have a limit of 65536, any time higher than 655 seconds will be saved incorrectly in the Mobile/Java files.
• Some levels had to be adjusted because of the different camera in the Mobile and Steam versions. For example, gaps in walls that could not be seen in the Mobile version had to be filled in the Steam version. (The right images show the respective Mobile level loaded in the Steam version)
• In almost all normal levels and some extended levels, the respawn Z-coordinates and radii of many checkpoints are bigger in the Steam version. The Z-coordinate adjustments were probably necessary for a smoother gameplay since in the Mobile version, the camera just cuts to the cube after dying while it smoothly moves to the cube in the Steam version.

E01 first step and E04 moving walls

These levels are a bit difficult to differentiate: While the first extended level on Steam, Mobile and Java version is called "first step", the underlying filenames are not the same, i.e. the Steam version has level537.bin as the first level while the Mobile version has level535_3D.bin and the Java version has level535.bin. The same applies for the level "moving walls" with the added difficulty of "click" and "moving walls" being swapped in the Mobile and Java versions compared to the Steam version. Here is a table summarizing these differences:

	Steam	Mobile	Java
Extended Level 1	level537.bin (first step)	level535_3D.bin (first step)	level535.bin (first step)
Extended Level 3	level538.bin (click)	level537.bin (moving walls)	level537.bin (moving walls)
Extended Level 4	level535_3D.bin (moving walls)	level538.bin (click)	level538.bin (click)

Considering the level names and the fact that the sfx names found in mapping.xml are ex_01_first_step, ex_03_moving_walls and ex_04_click, the level order present in the Mobile and Java version seems more natural, while the Steam level order was probably changed afterward.

However, the content of these levels is only determined by their ID (the number in the filename), not by their in-game name or number on the level select screen, so the ID will be used for comparison.

level535(_3D).bin

	Java	Mobile	Steam
Description	A very small level	Almost the same small level, but the level is built up using moving platforms.	The same small level as in the Mobile version, but there is a button where the exit in the Mobile version would be, leading to a completely new part of the level.
Prisms	1	1 (at a different location)	8
Checkpoints	1	4	10
Size	6x8x4	21x8x4	14x19x4
Time Thresholds	18, 21, 25, 28, 32	15, 18, 22, 25, 29	55, 60, 70, 85, 100
