Keeping up with our savory queue of lost games waiting to be remembered, we added 3 cancelled games to the Unseen64 archive:

Teebo & Kai [Xbox, PC]: cancelled online cooperative, Sci-Fi, 3D platformer developed by Escape Factory and commissioned by Valve. The project would have taken place on an alien planet, with many strange and unique locals that players can visit. Temples, towns, and strange rocky areas are a small fraction of what the supposed game could have had players visit: https://www.unseen64.net/2021/04/09/teebo-kai-xbox-pc-cancelled/

Tribal Lore [PC]: cancelled “tribe-building resource management” strategy game that would have been published by Gremlin Interactive in the late ‘90s. The team used a sophisticated mix of polygons and sprites for the game’s graphics, which looked quite impressive for its time. Gameplay would have been similar to Command & Conquer and Age Of Empires, but with a Celtic mysticism twist: https://www.unseen64.net/2021/04/09/tribal-lore-gremlin-pc-cancelled/

Fuzz and Rocket [GBA]: cancelled side scrolling platformer inspired by Yoshi’s Island, which was in development around 2003 by Halfbrick Studios (Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2, Fruit Ninja) for Game Boy Advance. It featured an aim mechanic similar to Yoshi’s 16-Bit adventure, where you threw the protagonist’s sidekick (Rocket) to resolve puzzles or to kill enemies: https://www.unseen64.net/2021/04/08/fuzz-rocket-halfbrick-gba-cancelled/

Aw these are all super interesting! I took one look at that screenshot and thought, for some reason, that it reminded me of the alien worlds/levels in that cancelled Xbox Space Quest, so to head on over to the page and read that they were also working on that was crazy :D

Indeed! I'm still not sure if those Space Quest screenshots were just mixed up with the Teebo ones at the time, but in the end it was basically an evolution of the same project / team :)
