This is a sub-page of Development:The Lion King (Game Boy).

To do:

  • Analyze and compare tUME maps

GAMEBOY#

OLD#

Contains assets that predate the July 13th, 1994 prototype.

GRID

Just a simple grid. Its creation date is February 25th, 1994, and may be one of the first level-related tileset, used as a reference.

GBSP

The unused contour graphics from the final, now in color form! (And with extended tiles)

EG

The Enigma Variations logo. Down here is a color list that looks similar to Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis).

MAPS#

TEST3

What appears to be a collection of assets for the Elephant Graveyard from the SNES version!

Bellow is a full comparison of the tiles:

Level 1 - The Pridelands#

GAMEBOY/OLD (April 29, 1994)

GAMEBOY/MAPS

The tileset for the first level. This set looks different from the latest set of tiles.

  • There is a scratchpad offscreen which uses green empty tiles that were removed from the new set of tiles.

Level 2 - Can't Wait to be King#

The tileset for the second level. The file LKTILES2 appears to be older, indicating that the second level (The Mane Event) has to be one of the first levels created for the game.

GAMEBOY/OLD (March 15th, 1994)

GAMEBOY/OLD (March 29th, 1994)

  • A variation of the G2 / NG2 ( Level 2 - Can't wait to be king ) tileset.
  • The most interesting difference is that Giraffes and Rhinos are larger, but was shrunken down to accommodate the Game Boy's small screen size.

Level 3 - Elephant Graveyard#

G3 / NG3 ( Level 3 - Elephant Graveyard )

GAMEBOY/OLD

GAMEBOY/MAPS

  • The tileset closely resembles this prototype.
  • Contains some offscreen Elephant Graveyard tiles that was removed in the latest (new) version.

Level 4 - The Stampede#

GAMEBOY/OLD

GAMEBOY/MAPS

Identical

Although there is no G5, which suggests that the stage does not have unique tiles.

Level 6 - Hakuna Matata#

GAMEBOY/OLD

GAMEBOY/MAPS

  • The tileset closely resembles this prototype. Offscreen, there is a scratch pad with tiles that also resemble the prototype.

Level 7 - Simba's Destiny#

GAMEBOY/OLD

GAMEBOY/MAPS

Although there is no G8, which suggests that the stage does not have unique tiles.

Level 9 - Simba's Return (Hyena Lairs)#

GAMEBOY/OLD

GAMEBOY/OLD

GAMEBOY/MAPS
