Proto:Croc 2 (Windows, PlayStation)/April 30th, 1999

From The Cutting Room Floor
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This is a sub-page of Proto:Croc 2 (Windows, PlayStation).

A prototype dated April 30th 1999 was released by Hidden Palace as part of Project Deluge.

Most of the levels are the same as retail, with only a few minor changes here and there. The most prominent difference is the dialogue and text strings, which were almost entirely rewritten for the final release.

General

  • The legal disclaimer has an additional line:
Croc 2 is published by Fox Interactive, Inc.
  • The test level, AAAGH Mad Gobbo !!!, is absent from this build, as is the unused version of Chase the Choo Choo Train.
  • Completing the secret Caveman levels returns Croc straight to the credits, without even showing Croc rescuing the last egg. The credits have no personalized message about 100% completion, either.
  • A couple of text changes on the options menu:
Prototype Final
Dialogue Volume Dialog Volume
Share Play OmniPlay
Share Dual Shock Vibration Share Vibration
  • Croc's health remains on-screen when visiting the options.
  • "Calibrate Controller" shows up in the text, but cannot be selected. The string was removed entirely in the final release.
    • The menu associated with value 13 returns a blank option, making it possible that this was the original intended function.

Load Game Screen

  • There's an additional symbol on the name selection screen: . 🌸When selected, it acts as a blank space. In the final, this area also acts like a blank space, but is, well, blank.
  • The main text is a bit further down the screen.
  • The warning about switching memory cards is missing entirely.
  • A lot of memory card text was revised:
Prototype Final
Checking MEMORY CARD Checking Memory Card
Please Do Not Remove MEMORY CARD Please do NOT remove Memory Card
Not Formatted MEMORY CARD Memory Card not formatted

Do you wish to format card ? Do you wish to format Memory Card ?
OK DONE

Cheat Menu Differences

  • Displays the jumps as 'Jellies'. In the final, the NTSC-U game updates it to 'Gummis'.
  • The cheat menu in this build contains a fully working level select as opposed to just a hub select! You can select any level in the game. The only thing missing is the 'Map' function, meaning only the demo version of Find the Key! Save the Gobbo! is unavailable without further hacking. The old level select (which still doesn't work) is also here.
  • The level select here skips levels that don't exist, such as the missing levels, but it's still possible to load them by selecting a level ID first and swapping the hub ID. This will cause the game to soft lock on the loading screen. As there's no titles on the level select, it's possible for someone to crash their game unknowingly here.
  • The secret levels allow you to select levels that don't exist.
  • There's an additional option not found in the final:
    Set Level Complete
    . It does what it says on the tin, but only at the bare minimum - the Golden Gobbo is not collected. This doesn't work well for the secret levels at all, and always collects a red crystal instead of that level's specific crystal.

Swap Meet Pete

  • Swap Meet Pete speaks of the item selected first, whereas in the final he waits for you to make a selection.
  • Buy item is X in the prototype, but Square in the final.
  • This build allows Croc to select the exit, a feature which was removed in the final (but can be accessed through hacking).
    • Due to this, Croc can also skip from the Clockwork Gobbo, to the exit, to the Heart Pot. In the final, if Croc wishes to get from one end to the other, he'll need to scroll over the jellies and crystal ball.
  • As with the rest of the game, most of his dialogue has differences:
Prototype Final
I know the mysteries of these lands and I get quality goods wholesale for anyone with the appropriate crystals! I know the mysteries of these lands...and I get quality goods wholesale for anyone with the appropriate crystals!
I'm sorry Croc you are only allowed to have nine! It's the law! I'm sorry Croc. You are only allowed to have nine! It's the law!
Crystal Craze Gummi for simple jumps Croc, a mere 40 crystals! Be warned, make sure you buy the right Gummi for the job! Crystal Craze Gummi Savers Jump for simple jumps, a mere 40 crystals! Make sure you buy the right Gummi Savers Jump for the job!
Five Flavor Gummi for double jumps Croc, a mere 60 crystals! Be warned, make sure you buy the right Gummi for the job! Five Flavor Gummi Savers Jump for double jumps, a mere 60 crystals! Make sure you buy the right Gummi Savers Jump for the job!
Wild Berry Gummi for long jumps Croc, a mere 80 crystals! Be warned, make sure you buy the right Gummi for the job! Wild Berries Gummi Savers Jump for long jumps, a mere 80 crystals! Make sure you buy the right Gummi Savers Jump for the job!
This is the crystal ball. I can use it to send you to faraway places. This is the crystal ball. I can use it to send you to far away places.
Where would I want to go? I've never been anywhere! Where would Croc want to go? Croc never been anywhere!
This my friend, is our top of the line Clockwork Gobbo, but it's 50 crystals... This, my friend, is our top of the line Clockwork Gobbo! Only 50 crystals!
That is the way out my friend! That is the exit, my friend! (unused)
  • There's also some missing dialogue. When Croc is ready to progress to the Inca Village, Pete starts to speak, but is cut off abruptly and instead repeats a random piece of dialogue from his text bank:
Well Croc, it seems that

Five Flavor Gummi for double jumps Croc, a mere 60 crystals! Be warned, make sure you buy the right Gummi for the job!
  • Similarly, Pete has no text for the secret worlds. At all.

Levels

Intro

  • When Croc displays the note, the camera angle is different, focusing less on Croc.

Sailor Village

  • Croc just appears in Sailor Village. In the final, following the events of the cutscene, he lands there.
  • After speaking, the Gobbo that welcomes you turns abruptly. In the final, he doesn't turn unless Croc speaks to him from the side.
  • The Smash Box containing the Magic Eye-Zoomers is placed on the opposite side, much like how it's seen in the background screenshot in the final release.
  • Nearly all of the text was changed:
Prototype Final
Swap Meet Pete watch over us all. He real clever and nice guy too! Swap Meet Pete watch over all Gobbos. He real clever and a nice guy too!
Did you know, I have been fishing this river for a week! You know, Gobbo been fishing this river for weeks!

  • The first Smash Box in the level remains where it is in the demo releases - to the side of the cave exit.

Find 3 Lost Treasure Chests

  • Known in the final game as Find 5 Lost Treasure Chests.
  • Despite the name change, this level is the same as the final, and you need 5 treasure chests to complete the level. The title was likely just accidental leftover from the earlier version of the level, and was fixed for the retail build.
  • The only dialogue that was changed:
Prototype Final
Quick Croc, jump on other end, I'll reach treasure chest for you! Quick, Croc! Jump on other end. Gobbo reach treasure chest!

Croc VS Dantini Boat Race

  • The Red Crystal was placed at the very end of the track instead of near the beginning of it.

Save the Bird from the Thief

  • Croc starts a little further back.

Get the Gobbo's Sandiwch!

  • Croc starts on the grass, rather than halfway up the cobblestone path.
  • When climbing the ivy wall, leaving Croc static at a certain point can cause the camera to flicker vigorously. It's also possible for Croc to fall right back down to the bottom after reaching the top.
  • When leaving the highest of the moving monkey bars, Croc can stop following it abruptly and potentially fall.
  • Text is the same as that of an earlier known build, HEY! He Stole My Lunch!:
Prototype Final
Croc! Throw Gobbo! Gobbo get crystal! Croc throw Gobbo. Gobbo get crystal.

Cannon Boat Keith

  • Cutscene has changes:
Prototype Final
Arrr, you called me m'lord. Arrr! You called me m'lord?
Ah Cannon Boat Keith, I need you for an evil endeavor. Ah, Cannon Boat Keith! I need you for an evil endeavor.
Anything for you m'lord aahaar. Anything for you, m'lord...arrr!
You must find this little green trouble-maker and get rid of him forever. You must find this little green trouble-maker and get rid of him forever.
I'll do this for you m'lord, I'll scare him out of his skin! It'll be my pleasure, m'lord! I'll scare him out of his skin!

Cossack Village

As with the Sailor Village, nearly all of the text received modifications for the final:

Prototype Final

Swap Meet Pete an odd guy! Swap Meet Pete an odd guy!

Save the Ice Trapped Gobbos!

  • Croc starts just a smidgeon more to the left.
  • Text is the same as the attraction level from the final:
Prototype Final
I press button for bridge! You push block over the bridge! Gobbo press button for bridge, Croc push ice block over it!
Croc Gobbo hero! Croc is Gobbo's hero!
Gobbo stop spinning bridge. Croc push ice block over. Gobbo stop spinning bridge, Croc push ice block over.

Croc save friends. Now Gobbo get TNT out of block. Croc save Gobbos! Gobbo get TNT out of ice block.
Croc best friend. Croc is Gobbo's best friend.

Chase the Choo Choo Train

  • The switch at the end is coloured red, and switches to green. In the final, it's the opposite.
  • If you don't hit the switch in time, no mini cutscene plays, and you're sent back to the Cossack Village.
  • If you do hit the switch in time, no mini cutscene plays here, either. Instead, Croc can walk right into the collisionless train, stopping only when the Gobbos want to talk with him.
  • Speaking of which, their dialogue was modified for the final:
Prototype Final
Oh Thanks Croc! We thought we was goners! Those Dantinis are so naughty! Oh thanks, Croc! Gobbos were almost goners! Dantinis are so naughty!

It's Just Snowball Madness!

  • Croc is briefly seen hopping on the snowball as the level starts.

Hang Glider Valley

  • When Croc gets hit, steam comes off him.

Kabooom! It's Roger Red Ant

  • As with other levels, the text has changes:
Prototype Final
Let's have some fun! Can you get the bomb box to the end of the corridor before it goes KABOOOM! You better be quick! Watch for my swinging fireballs! Let's have some fun! Try to get the bomb box to the end of the corridor before it goes KABOOOM! You'd better be quick! Watch out for my swinging fireballs!

Find the wheels in the Mine!

  • Known as "Find the Wheels in the Mine!" in the retail version.
  • The minecart appears to be a little more to the left side of the track.

Find the Wheels in the Jungle!

  • When entering the first cave, the camera is a bit further back.

Climb the Devil's Tower

  • There's a missing Smash Box in the fourth area.

Save 50 Trapped Gobbos!

  • There's no fire surrounding the Gobbo on a pillar (as seen in the attraction level on the retail release).
  • There's a fire around a wall (also seen in the final attraction version of the level).

Venus Fly Von-Trappe

  • The skeleton Dantinis attack immediately upon entry to the first cave.
  • There's an extra skeleton Dantini in the second cave.
  • The fly traps still hit Croc as he sails past on the balloon.
  • The text was changed a bit for the final:
Prototype Final
Help! We're trapped inside Venus! Roll the rocks down the ramps! Venus spit us out! Help! Gobbos trapped inside Venus! Roll rocks down ramps! Venus spit Gobbo out!

The Village Masher

  • Text changes, matching the attraction level found in the final game:
Prototype Final
Hold on, we'll find you another bucket! Hold on! Gobbos find Croc another bucket!
Fill the bucket with water, and throw it at the fire breathing monster! Fill bucket with water, throw water at fire-breathing monster!
  • The cutscene also has (minor) changes to the dialogue:
Prototype Final
Hellfire!! That green do-gooder...Unleash My Terrible Village Mashing Automaton!! Hellfire!! That green do-gooder! Unleash my terrible Village Mashing Automaton!!
But it's not ready Your Meanness!! But...it's not ready, your Meanness!!

Save 25 Gobbo Babies!

  • Known as "Save 30 Gobbo Babies!" in the final.
    • Much like Find 3 Lost Treasure Chests, this title is merely a leftover from an earlier game, and you do still have to rescue 30 Gobbo babies.
  • In the final, Croc only has to walk over to the vases to break them. Here, he must tail whip or leap on them.
  • The wall in front of the carousel is extremely bright for some reason, suggesting a door would be there. This was fixed in the final.

Up the Waterfall

  • There's a second snake rope on the middle section of the waterfall. In the final, Croc has to swim across whilst fighting the current with no help.
  • In the same area, a rather unfortunate glitch can occur - Croc can slip through the waterfall and end up on an invisible plane underneath, making it hard to get back up without falling all the way back to the beginning.

Bride of the Dungeon of Defright

  • More text that was changed (and once again, it resembles the text found in the unused attraction version left in the final):
Prototype Final
Catch Bombs and blow up cage Croc ! Croc! Catch the bombs and blow up the cage!

I'm so glad you arrived Croc!

Whilst you were fighting Baron Dante, I escape using my self-propelling pencil!

The Baron escaped, he in the heart of his evil domain!

You keep the Baron busy and I'll try and find a way to send him whence he came!


You'll have to get through the Dungeon of Defright and defeat Goo Man Chu, the Goo monster!

  • Changes to the cutscene text:

Dante's Final Fight

  • Text changes at the end of the fight:
Prototype Final
Keep Dante busy. I'll use crystals to open a portal. Croc! Keep Dante busy while I open a portal with these crystals.
Oh! No! NO! NOOO! I can't believe it! Not again! Croc you little... Oh! No! NO! NOOO! I can't believe it! Not again! Croc, you little...

Look what Gobbo found! Maybe it useful for you?! Look what I found! Maybe it can be of some use to you?

Secret Levels

Secret Caveman Village

  • When Croc leaves the level, he ends up facing a weird angle, walking straight into the wall.

Ending

  • Last but not least, more text alterations:
Prototype Final
Oh Croc! It IS You! I thought I'd lost you forever! Oh, Croc! It IS you! I thought we'd lost you forever!
