Proto:Baby Boom
This page details one or more prototype versions of Baby Boom.
 | This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article? |
Two earlier builds were also included in the 2006 Sega prototype leak.
June 3, 1994
The game is in a much earlier state.
General Differences
- Only one music track is available.
- Unlike later versions, sound effects are playable in the sound test.
- One can press Start and press Up or Down to go to different levels. To go to the selected level, press A. This tends to be inconsistent.
- The player is controlling a rather cartoony glove rather than a crane.
- Rather than picking the babies up by their diapers, the hand picks them up at their current frame of animation.
- The art style is somewhat different and focuses more on a present-day setting.
Test Screens
Aside from the three regular levels available, there are a handful of test screens that can be selected from the main menu.
-Password_Screen.png)
A password screen mockup, listed under "Level 4". It shows two possible ways a password could be entered.
_Bitmap_Test.png)
A bitmap test, listed under "Level 6".
A bonus round level can also be selected, but this crashes the game, likely because it's loading a room with 20 babies. However, it looks just like Level 1.
June 6, 1994
Rather than starting at a debug selection screen like the June 3 or August 11 prototypes, this build immediately begins at the first level. However, it's fairly similar to the June 3 build otherwise.
