Finally, we have almost an entire playthrough of a late never before seen prototype of Sonic 3! This prototype only dates a few days before final, but it still contains various differences. How many can you find?

I'd be really sad if you got this far into 2020 without knowing about The Hidden Palace Prototype collection, where you can try prototypes of released and unreleased console games, in the browser, many of them saved from certain oblivion.

First up, Feel. This was possibly created by Sega of Japan to showcase various styles and combinations to various Sega executives and producers to iron out a design that would be more appealing to the market that Sonic previously gathered. What's your favorite Ristar?

Today we have a "in-between” build of the Japanese localization of Ecco 1 for Mega Drive. And we have both an early and a late prototype of Ecco 1 for Game Gear. This release was made possible with arkonviox and our friends at TCRF!

Unfortunately, there's nothing for Sonic tomorrow. Also - nothing crazy like Conker/Zelda/Mario either. But with every prototype discovered under the sun, who knows what this new year will bring? 🦔

This was in development for 3 years before being canceled in 2005 when the game failed the certification process at Sony for unknown reasons despite being almost finished. The cancellation was enough to bankrupt Working Designs, with the studio announcing its closure in December.
