🕑 Added 2019-07-15 21:52:53 +0000 UTCKeeping up with our absurd queue of lost games waiting to be remembered, we added 3 new cancelled games in the Unseen64 archive:
Kunio-Kun RPG [NES, Famicom]: Kunio-kun is a cult-classic series of action adventure games (mostly known in the west as Renegade and River City Ransom) originally conceived by Technos Japan in arcades and for the Nintendo Famicom console. In 1988 Super Dodge Ball (a sport-based Kunio-Kun spin off) was released on the Famicom. A strategy guide was published by Technos in Japan and at the end of the volume there was an announcement for a cancelled, forgotten Kunio-Kun RPG: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/07/15/kunio-kun-rpg-cancelled/
Goblins [PC - Playstation?]: another lost Psygnosis project we don’t know much about, that was in development for PC (and possibly Playstation?) around 1997 by their San Francisco office. As far as we gathered it would have been some kind of real time strategy / adventure game, in which giving orders to a group of Goblins.. somehow like a mixe between Pikmin and Lemmings: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/07/15/goblins-psygnosis-cancelled/
1171 [PC]: a cancelled action adventure with fantasy medieval settings in development by Parallax Arts Studios for PC around 2000 – 2003. For today’s standard these screenshots don’t look so good, but for it’s time it could have been a great looking project if only released. As far as we can still find online Parallax was based in the USA but their development team was located in Russia: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/07/15/1171-parallax-arts-studios-cancelled/
