Development:Sonic Unleashed (J2ME)
This page details development materials of Sonic Unleashed (J2ME).
This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes. |
To do: Look for unused content cut from the final game if possible. Debug cheats removed from the final. |
On September 7th, 2017, the root of a Subversion Samsung GTB3410 port branch was posted to GitHub on September 7th of 2017 by djsoftware, under the repository name, pallan. Along with source code of the game and engine, it also contains a variety of development material, ranging from uncompiled art assets ranging around 2009 and 2010 releases of the game with variants from all localizations, documents, builds ready for distribution and sent to Quality Assurance teams and finally, proprietary tools (some with source code) for viewing, compiling and packaging assets. There's even an emulator to play related builds and other Java-era Gameloft games on your computer!
The repository was taken down as of August 13, 2020, but has been archived here.
