it might be intentional? Remember how Crash in Crash Bandicoot 1 used to play like, maybe they just wanted to bring that classic crash gameplay from the first game to Coco👀
@@tgnoat910 It's admittedly a kinda cheap form of an alternative playable character, just Crash but nerfed. There's part of me that wonders if Coco was unfinished in WOC. we know the game was rushed like crazy.
Oh my god... the game's logo is supposed to be the portal things you jump into at the end of the levels. And they're just completely axed from the final game, leading to an artifact logo. That completely blows my mind.
That would be because the game was rushed by Universal from what I heard, who wanted to make their own Crash game just to spite Naughty Dog for being rebellious bitches during the creation of the trilogy. Explains why all this stuff and more (MUCH more) was removed from the core game, which is a shame. The tornado generators being able to move around and Crash and Burn being extended by the islands would've been great to see.
@@neilbowes7214 I doubt that was the reason lol. Most likely they just wanted to play it safe since this was Crash's first time on the PS2. Its typical for corporate bigshots to demand quick release to meet quartal projections etc...pure greed.
just realized that the crash walking animation in this one is the same one that was used in the opening Cutscene of Sonic 3D Blast (Genesis Version), wild fr
If I remember right, the long load times (on PS2, at least) were because there was supposed to be a load screen minigame where crash would float around and collect wumpa fruit. But it was cut last-minute due to Namco owning a patent on that, and load times were still longer by mistake. The greatest hits version fixes that
I Like it 2:52 In The Wrath Of Cortex Trailer Aku-Aku was moving his mouth when he's talking but in the the Prototype He Reminds normal with exposing his teeth.
At 5:43 you can see a long trail of what looks like more level behind The hut. I believe this is the original extended beginning. I think the terrain from it still remained, but you still start ahead of it so you can’t see it. This must’ve been a build when they were still in the process of removing it. You also can’t see it in the final version so…
Press L1 L2 R1 R2 to activate cheats while in the pause menu after choosing options and you'll get some cheats. I tried this with keyboard doesnt work and but on controller does.
I might have liked this game as a kid but the loading screens were a major turn off. The first release of the ps2 version seemed to take FOREVER TO LOAD. The old games you left a level and you were immediatly back in the warp room. In this game if you left you would sit like a moron for like 2 mins hearing 🎶 woo woo woo woo weeeeeee woo woo woo woo weeeeeeeee 🎶 and crash falling. I just grew sick of it and played klonoa 2 instead.

I wanna know who's dumb idea it was not to give Coco _any_ power-ups besides the super stomp. Like come on! They could've given her the double jump.
Yeah it's dumb but what can you do 😔

The only unlockable powerup coco can even use I think is the Crash Dash.
she can also use the speed shoes power up. the speed shoes and the super stomp are the only power ups that coco can use in WOC
That warp room is actually scary.
18:56 Wizards & Lizards was named Enter the dragon OMG
-Enter the Dragonfly flashbacks-
Also music from Medieval Madness
@@floydlawthon4340 Good Game.
This is crazy!!
Never thought I'd see the Prototype version for WOC!!
WOAH!!
THE BANDICOOT COMMUNITY DOES IT AGAIN!!
We recently got also a new Twinsanity prototype build!
Crash

@@HyperGolem I think they might've gotten a little too used to Naughty Dog's quick output
@@neilbowes7214 companies don't work like that bro
You are an absolute mad lad for finding this!
he wasnt the one who found it though???
@@richardc.mongler1029 It got recently leaked, you can find it in a website called Hidden Palace
Wow, awesome! Never thought we'd get to see this in full...
Nice! A newly discovered prototype of the first video game I've ever played.
just realized that the crash walking animation in this one is the same one that was used in the opening Cutscene of Sonic 3D Blast (Genesis Version), wild fr
Is it just me, or is Crash's running animation different here than in the finished game?
Why yes it is if I had to guess why they changed it I guess it looked goofy to them
Gamehut should talk about this.
You know what shocks me?
The loading times are actually shorter than the final version, by quite a bit too

That's because in the final version, the game loads the ENTIRE level at the start. Instead of in chunks like every other game.
The hub world with the giant cortex and elementals is awesome. I wish they left it in the final, because the final versions warp room is super bland.
I Like it 2:52 In The Wrath Of Cortex Trailer Aku-Aku was moving his mouth when he's talking
but in the the Prototype He Reminds normal with exposing his teeth.
Wow this is awesome!! I wonder if we can find any older prototypes?
Also I wonder why did they get rid of the cool 3d font in the HUD?
Ikr the 3d font is so cool !
Hopefully if Toys for Bob remakes Wrath of Cortex; they need to bring back all the cut content

I love the loading screen soooo much
This looks like it handles alot better than the actual game.
It does
0:00 I love when every creature is loading
Does the music actually loops correctly in this build? Because from what I remember it has looping problem in the public release of the PS2 version
I noticed that too lmao why did they change it.
Dear Gaia, that thumbnail of Wa-Wa is freaky…
23:52 Wasn't Crash supposed to fall from a plane in alpha build?
glad they didnt keep that run animation in
Loading Crash Bandicoot , Loading Angel Wings.
Cortex, eat your heart out
How the beta files only being published 20 years later? But Jon Burton maybe have more of these
This was released alongside a hundred or so other prototypes by HiddenPalace.org, as part of "Project Deluge"
Some people like to hog prototypes and stuff because they're worried it'll affect the value of them
freaky masks

It’s weird there only rhinos in jungle rumble not hippo giraffe elephant other
It's just me who thinks that Crash running animation was coller on the beta than the curent version?
113/114 because of the bonus level.. that hurts....
Crash’s run looks so goofy😂
Good I miss lab assistants
How to play this demo?
so they r taking a PS2 game and remastering it for PS4 and PS5 interesting
