Cancelled Free-Roaming Island Shooter by Pre-Blizzard devs, and another Gremlins video game (Patreon)

Keeping up with our unseen queue of lost games waiting to be remembered, this week we added 2 cancelled games in the Unseen64 archive:   

Gremlins [Xbox 360] As you probably know Gremlins is a 1984 comedy horror film directed by Joe Dante and released by Warner Bros, a commercial success spawning a sequel and lots of merchandise. A few officially licensed video games were published for Atari 2600, Commodore 64, Game Boy Color, Wii and DS. A Playstation 2 Gremlins was in development in the mid ‘00s, but soon cancelled.  Many years later, Krome Studios (mostly known for Ty the Tasmanian Tiger and Spyro: A New Beginning) pitched another Gremlins video game, planned for Xbox 360: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/04/18/gremlins-videogame-xbox360-cancelled/

Guerrilla: Jungle Revolt [Xbox 360] Swingin’ Ape Studios were a mostly forgotten studio behind the now cult-classic title Metal Arms: Glitch in the System, a third-person shooter published by Vivendi Universal and Sierra Entertainment in late 2003, for Playstation 2, Xbox and GameCube. While the game did not sold much, many gamers loved it for its fun gameplay and multiplayer. Around 2004 after Metal Arms was shipped, Swingin Ape Studios proposed many different projects to publishers: Metal Arms 2, a new SWAT (Police Quest), a GI-Joe tie-in, and a game called “Guerrilla: Jungle Revolt”, to be developed as an exclusive launch title for Microsoft’s soon-to-be released Xbox 360: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/04/18/guerrilla-jungle-revolt-xbox360-cancelled/
