Ecco II: Sentinels of the Universe

Ecco II: Sentinels of the Universe
Developer: Appaloosa Interactive Platform: Dreamcast This game has unused text.

This game was never completed and/or given a public release. As a result of this, keep in mind that the developers might have used or deleted some of the content featured here, had the game actually been released.

Ecco II: Sentinels of the Universe was the planned sequel to Ecco: Defender of the Future. The available build, dated February 19, 2001, contains six levels but has no sound or music at all. It also has a ton of dialogue in Hungarian, implying that the previous game's developer (Appaloosa Interactive) was responsible for this game.

Some corrupted files dated February 23, 2001 were extracted from a broken Dreamcast Dev.Box. This build has English dialogue and an additional level.

Unused Dialogue

Present in the stage files, and mostly in Hungarian.

Ancient City

Hungarian (2/19/01 build)	English (2/23/01 build)
Most dontsd el, hogy beszolsz vagy kiszalsz! Melak ehes! Rock n Roll! A pokolban az ordoggel bulizunk tovabb! Ha kiengedsz teljesitem harom kivansagom! Kis delfing, kis delfing engedj ki! Ha nem engedsz ki szetrugom a seggfejed!	You mock or get out, decide it! Puffy is starving! Rock n Roll! The party goes on in the hell with the devil! If you let me out, I'll comply with my three wishes! Small wolphin, small wolphin let me out! If you don't let me out, I'll smash your head up!

Galleon & Port

Hungarian (2/19/01 build)

English (2/23/01 build)

Nahat, egy delfin! Johettel volna korabban is! De most kegyes hangulatban vagyok, megbocsatom a keslekedesedet. Tudok rola, hogy a madarak nem beszelnek! Hat ugy nezek en ki, mint egy madar? Na jo, most epp ugy! Tudd meg, te ebihal-eszu, hogy en hatalmas delfinsaman vagyok! Egyetlen pillanatra nem figyeltem, es a felso toban lako lelekrablo ellopta a varazseromet, beszoritva ebbe a tollas testbe. Eleg a csevegesbol. Hadjaratot hirdetek! Hozz nekem egy csonakot, az jo lesz zaszloshajonak. El kell jutnom a viz ala merult hajohoz. A polip olessen meg, mondtam, hogy hozz egy csonakot! Fogadjunk, hogy te nem is delfin vagy! Egy delfin mar megertett volna: CSONAKOT!!! Mit vetettem, Osmagusok, hogy egy ilyen ostoba uszonyost kuldtetek? Vegre egy csonak! Megprobalok beszallni... Irany az elsulyedt hajo! Te vagy a seregem, de sebesen tolj am, mintha capa kergetne! Gyorsabban, var a dicso harc! Visszaszerzem a varazseromet! Mit lazsalsz? Gyerunk tovabb! Miert alltunk meg mar megint? Gyerunk a hajoroncshoz!

Wow, a dolphin! You should have come earlier! But I'm in good mood now, so I forgive your delay. I know birds can't talk! Do I look like one? Well, for the moment, I do! You should know, that I'm a great dolphine mage! For a moment I hadn't taken care, and the soulrobber living in the upper lake stole my magic force, squeezing me into this feathered body. Enough of talking! I announce a campaign! Bring me a boat, that will take for a capital ship. I must get to the sunken ship. May the octopus have you killed! Haven't I told you to bring me a boat? I bet you're not a dolphine! A dolphine would have understood me by now: BRING ME A BOAT! What had I done wrong that you sent me such a stupid finner? Boat at last! I try to get on... Head on to the sunken ship! You are my army, so push me rapidly, like you were chased by a shark! Quicker, Quicker! I regain my magic! What are doing? Move on! Why did we stop again? Move on to the shipwreck!

WELCOME TO THIS FREEZING WORLD! YOU DOESN'T LOOK TO BE PREPARED. DON'T FORGET TO KEEP YOUR BODY WARM. WE CAN HELP YOU WITH SOME IF YOU SWIM BY US. STRANGE THINGS HAPPEN HERE I HEARD THAT SOME CREATURES SETTLED IN THE FORBIDDEN BAY. SOME OF OUR FRIENDS BEHAVE AWKWARD SINCE THEN. THE GOD OF THE OCEAN WAS UPSET LAST DAY. WE HAD NO REST BECAUSE OF THE STRONG CURRENTS. IT WAS DANGEROUS TO BREATH EVEN BECAUSE OF THE MOVING ICE BLOCKS. SOMETHING HAPPENED WITH THE NARWHALS, WE HEARD CRYING THEM ALL NIGHT. YOU LOOK FOR THE ALIENS? BE CAREFUL WE HEARD SCARY THINGS. THOSE BEAR THREAT US. THAT PATH WAS THE ACCESS TO THE GLACIER LAKE. THE NARWHALS HAVE MAGICAL POWER. THEY MAY HELP YOU BUT THEY ARE BUSY WITH THEIR POD. THE ONLY WAY OUT FROM HERE IS THRU THE BEARS. I KNOW, TRY TO USE YOUR SPECIAL ABILITIES! YOU LOOK TO BE ABLE TO SWIM FASTER AGAINST THE CURRENT THAN WE ARE. IF YOU CAN MANAGE TO NOT BEING SEEN BY THEM YOU CAN ESCAPE! I CANNOT HELP YOU I NEED TO HELP TO ESCAPE FROM THE ICE TO MY POD. THEY ARE THERE SINCE IN COLD SINCE THE YESTERDAY. THE GAPS ARE TOO FAR, THEY CAN'T SWIM THRU WITH ONE AIR. THE WATER IS WARM HERE. THIS WERE WE LIVE. THEY WON'T SURVIVE IN THAT COLD FOR LONG. THANK YOU I WILL NEVER FORGET YOUR HELP. LET ME CREATE THIS FROM YOUR MEMORY AS A GIFT. YOU WILL FIND OTHERS ON YOUR WAY, TOO THANK YOU YOUNG DOLPHIN YOU MUST KNOW THAT I ATTACKED YOU BECAUSE OF THAT THING. THERE IS ANOTHER LAKE CONTAINING MORE OF THESE STRANGE CREATURES. I HATE THEM BUT JOIN TO HELP YOU. THE ONLY WAY IS TO SLIDE DOWN. YOUR SKIN IS TOO SOFT, YOU WON'T SURVIVE IT. THERE MUST BE ANOTHER WAY. HOW COULD YOU DO THIS? I SAW THAT YOU ARE SPECIAL WITH THOSE STARS ON YOUR HEAD. THIS PLACE IS SCARY, LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

HELP ME... I GOT STUCK BETWEEN THESE ICE BLOCKS. THE WATER IS TOO SHALLOW AND COLD... I AM VERY TIRED... I CANNOT FREE MYSELF. YOU ARE STRONG... TRY TO MOVE THE BLOCKS TO MAKE A PATH... THANK YOU ECCO, I SAW THAT YOU WILL MAKE IT. NOW IT IS MY TURN, I HELP TO BREAK THROUGH THE ICE WALLS. STAY CLOSE, I WILL KEEP YOU WARM BUT BEWARE OF MY TALE. NOW WE HAVE TO SEPARATE, I CANNOT TRAVEL WITH YOU FURTHER. I HEARD ONLY STRANGE WHISTLES FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN. NO, THERE IS NO WATER PATH ONLY SNOW AND ICE. ONCE A YOUNG ORCA MANAGED TO JUMP OVER BUT HE NEVER RETURNED. IT HAPPENED WHEN THE GLACIER FELT. I WILL BE GLAD WHENEVER YOU RETURN TO ME. THIS WALL IS TOO STRONG FOR ME, I NEED YOUR HELP.

IT'S GOOD TO SEE SOMEONE AFTER SO MANY YEARS. MY STORY IS LONG AND BORING... YES THE BATS AND THE GEYSIR HAD TO BE TOUGH BUT FUN. NOW FOLLOW ME, I SHOW YOU THE EXIT

Atlantis

 Greetings Ecco!
 You are young and eager, but if you will listen to a wise old dolphin like me, maybe I can teach you some new things!
 If you wish to talk  just point your bottle nose at me and use your sonar!
 Good, you know how to talk!
 Now let's see if you can swim just as well as you can talk!
 Pump with your flipper to accelerate or hold down to keep a steady pace.
 Once you stop pumping you will slow down gradually.
 Try it now!
 Nice fluid tailwork there! But can you charge as well?
 Charging will give you extra speed, you can go faster and jump higher than you would think possible.
 Charging is also the way you catch your prey, the fish!
 Just aim your nose at a school of them and charge right in the middle of them.
 Go try it!
 Hey! Easy with that charge! You might hurt someone friendly.
 Charging is also used as a weapon against your enemies but never ever point your nose at your friends unless you want to talk!
 Now try a special manoeuver: The quick turn!
 You can do it left or right to turn around in an instant!
 Give it a try!
 Good job! Turning around quick may give you an edge when it comes to fighting enemies.
 Now another special trick! Not all dolphins are able to master it, but I know you can.
 Swimming backwards!
 Use it as a brake to slow down and stop in an instant.
 When you have stopped, use it to swim backwards!
 Can you master this one? Now, you are ready to learn the hardest special manoeuver
 of all.
 The Quick Roll!
 You do it the opposite way as you brake or swim backwards.
 Not easy to do, but worthwhile when playing chicken  with a shark!
 Go try it!
 You are a quick learner, Ecco!
 You have mastered all the basic skills a dolphin should know!
 Now it is time for fun!  Let's see if you can Tailwalk!
 Just slowly peek your nose above the surface of the water.
 When you can feel the breeze start pumping with your tail.
 You can Tailwalk around for a long time and see things not visible from underwater.
 Go try it and have fun!
 You are the most talented dolphin I have met, Ecco!
 There is nothing else I can teach you today.
 But I can give you advice which will serve you well:
 observe and remember and you will live long my friend!

 I am the lord of the bats.
 I am looking for a whistle.
 If you take it to me 
 I will reward you I am the lord of the bats.
 Thank you for the whistle.
