/vr/ - Retro Games

Sometimes things revealed in prototypes lead to clues into how the games were developed
>noticed how you see a weird cutscene in banjo kazooie when you kill Big Clucker birds in Click Clock Woods you see a small cutscene
>Clanker's Cavern was originally Fungi Forest with Click Clock Woods enemies
>levels and enemies got shifted around
>which is why when you kill a Big Clucker bird coming out of a tree hole in Click Clock Woods you see a cutscene
>but when you kill a Grille Chompa (slug monster coming out of sewer grates on the wall) you don't
>you were supposed to be introduced to Big Clucker enemies first in Fungi Forest and Grille Chompas in Rusty Bay
Is this interesting? Not really, but it feels like solving a 30 year old puzzle.
