On the last prototype's name

So. I struggled with naming it for a long time, and even now I'm refraining from straight up moving the article with the name I'm thinking of now because it's not decisive yet.
I went with Early Version at first because it's in the subtitle of the original file, "lamulana_early.zip". It made sense at the time, and it's also actually an ok translation of the Japanese name 先行公開版 (Senkou-koukai-ban). Then I saw that it was officially called "Preview" in the History of La-Mulana trailer for the remake, and decided to go with that instead since "it's official". However, since the English demo was also called Preview, I thought people would confuse the two, so I went back to the previous name.
Then I started documenting development stuff of the game, and had to put Early in the filenames of the images that would go there. Since there were already file with Early in the name used for the last proto, I realized this could also be a problem, and the struggle came back. My only idea was to use a translation of the Japanese name, which means something like "head-first release". I thought of pre-order, and also Early Access, but I immediately marked them off the table because they could lead people into thinking this game was on Steam, which it wasn't.
The only thing I can think of right now is to just go with "Senkoukoukaiban". --Gmestanley (talk) 15:23, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

Last prototype's subpage template

For the icon, should it use the title screen image actually used in its article? I feel like that one would be really hard to see in the template at the current resolution. --Gmestanley (talk) 15:42, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
