I truly believe this could become one of the greatest Bionicle games alongside MNOG, it looks really cool

"roadwork ahead"?? sure hope it does

For a PS2 game this looks like if it was made with Unity, UE or something

Bro literally brought the toa to life from their eternal game playing musical statues with a push of a button. Incredible :o

Highly recommend anyone with a PS2 copy of the game (and a second DualShock) to try these out. No modding required! 1. Pause the game or load the frontend with controller 1 2. Hold L1 and L2 on controller 2 3. Press any of the following ten times on controller 2: Unlimited Energy cheat (Does not work): D-Pad Up Complete level cheat: D-Pad Left Unlimited Health cheat: D-Pad Down Unlock all added content cheat: Triangle Unlock next level cheat: Square Unlock all levels cheat: Circle

That's interesting.

Mate, does anyone remember the Game Demo where you could play as Vakama in Metru Nui. There were mysterious tentacles growing out of the lava destroying the Constructions and you had to shoot them down. It might have been called City of Legends as well. I couldn’t find anything online but 2 screenshots and that’s it.

Sad, this looks about twice as exhilarating as the combat in the final version looks. I love that they melee attack when shielding and the holstering and the faster movement and cooler projectile effects. LEGO REALLY messed up with what they wanted to have changed.

This game really deserved more development time really wish it was finished

Sho looks really cool! Would have been so much fun to play as her and the other toa that were unfortunately not included in the final game.

One day, a coder will be able to finish what the OG dev could not. But until then... this is all we have.

i just came upon this randomly, looks good though, better than what i can do

Good job on managing to get the Gali Mata swimming animation functioning.

Amazing music. Should never be forgotten.

the music is so beautiful

What dashing creatures.

I love the several matoran getting blasted out of the one canister, it looks hilarious!

The path is blocked you have to find an other way! *freaking levitates in anger*

Nice way to start off the new year!

I like how the blades are placed wrongly on his shoulder and back it looks so goofy

I like how funnily wrong the hud is, it says Onua Nuva, has a picture of Lewa Mata; and you're actually playing as Tahu Nuva.

I first found your channel when I was 11 how am I nearly an adult and you're STILL finding things in this game

"wooooooooooo..." - Le-Ta-Matoran Interesting find. Definitely would have made canisters a more engaging mechanic; in the final game they mostly just serve as triggers for lightstone groups and occasionally elemental energy masks, so running into them generally nets you predictable rewards and usually not in any compelling way. Having them launch Matoran and maybe making them a puzzle to traverse to would add some much-needed depth.

This has tons of custom level/modding potential

0:10 Hilarious

This unused canister seem to launch matoran out across the map to be rescued.

I love that we got any form of this level. Honestly, I don't see how the matoran escort idea failing is any excuse to so badly shrink the areas. I hate how constricted and linear they made it in the final game, as someone who actually played this removed level, I can honestly say that the sheer feeling of freedom of being able to climb all over everything in such a vast area in this game felt absolutely amazing! Such a horrible loss that the general structures of the levels didn't stay like this.

Gali on the dance floor? How could I refuse? Really appreciate the work you do on this under appreciated game.

1:51 Unappreciative Lego Star Wars fan: "Erm, I never liked Bionicle because it took itself too seriously." Bionicle forest disco:

This is astounding! I seriously never thought we wound get to see THIS much cut content! You are truly amazing!

Now that's awesome! I seriously appreciate all of your work to get these lost assets restored at least enough to get a clear idea of how the game used to work.

Does a Kopaka Nuva model exist in the game?

Hi! Do you ever plan to make some mod expanding the original game?

Nice finds!

Bionicle 2025

There’s something funky about this version of Tahu having the wrong swords but the right board… made of the right swords… definitely a case of a separate model being used but it’s still funny to notice. The KopakaVision thing sorta makes sense, sharing code between the boarding characters, but I’m surprised there aren’t more instances of code for individual attributes being present but just disabled among the Toa. Safe to say this wasn’t a scrapped ability for you to swap mask powers since most of them aren’t more directly in the game to begin with and there’d definitely be more specific evidence of it by now were it the case.

I love it so much when more of the original Toa are added!

You have no idea how happy this makes me! You even got the really early blue version as an option!

Despite jank, it looks better with them. This would have been so cool if it came out!

Bob.

Like NoWy said, this is totally adding up that the GBA version showed many of the beta secrets in plain sight all along. That is why I love it so much, despite control and depth perception flaws, it is a great look into what all versions should have been.

@1:15 You spin me right round, baby, right round, like a record, baby, right round round round!

Well that is just awesome! It is like the GBA version with added abilities! I like the bucking bronco part! Cool that you can ride him! Also, Bob-Lewa-Mata-Onua-Nuva-Tahu-Nuva was always one of my favorite Bionicles, right up there with Takua Nuva and Good Guy.

That is amazing! I have been playing GBA BTG a lot recently and am completely convinced that the reason Gali Mata moves like that was that she walked underwater like in the GBA version. When she stops especially, it looks like she is preventing herself from floating away underwater.

Too busy looking at Gali in her original Mata beauty. Love what you did with her model. Albeit not as shapely as her "Nuva Cake".

THE LORD OF SKULL SPIDERS!!!
