Clockwork Aquario (previously unreleased WESTONE game)

Postby MrKite » Mon Feb 1, '21, 1:14 pm

Back in at least December, while I was on Facebook, I stumbled upon a preorder page courtesy of Strictly Limited Games (a european game company) for this game called "Clockwork Aquario". It is a game that was developed by WESTONE (the makers of Wonder Boy/Monster World) in the early 90's and was scheduled for release in late 1993/early 1994, but was cancelled due to poor location testing. It sounded interesting from what I read about it and the very few screenshots on the website there were. I decided to take a risk and preorder the Ultimate Collector's Editon, which costs 129.99 euros, which is about 150 US dollars, plus shipping. Was it worth it?

EDIT:This is also my 1100th post!

Very interesting! I always like seeing arcade prototypes that were basically complete or got to location testing.

This is the only bit of gameplay footage there is right now and it is only 20 seconds. The music isn't what I was expecting. But then again this is only one stage.
