Croc 2 (Game Boy Color)

Croc 2
Developer: Natsume Publisher: THQ Platform: Game Boy Color Released in US: January 25, 2001 Released in EU: February 2, 2001 This game has unused graphics.

The Game Boy Color adaption of Croc 2 mostly follows the same plot as the console game, but with a few different quests and variations. The biggest change is that Croc's mother has an entirely different design. Oh, and the rest of his family is mentioned, but never shown.

Unused Graphics

Croc's Mother

To do: Rip the other two sprites as well.

When Croc's Mom follows her son out of Baron Dante's crumbling abode, the camera dims as she turns up so that you can just about view her in black and white. The game actually contains sprites for her moving fully and with the right pallette, but the other two sprites are never seen at all, and the one back sprite you do see is pure white.

Interestingly, her tail is different in this sprite - other sprites show her tail as being pure white halfway down, as opposed to the candy cane coloring shown here.

Fire Pit Monster

Fire Pit Monster briefly turns around when attacked from the top. You never get to see his bottom half because of this. A map viewer shows that the very bottom of the boss has an extra six pixels, perhaps leftover from an earlier design.
