Extremely Early Footage#
Watch on YouTubeThe German trailer to the right came from the PowerPlay January 1998 magazine CD. It contains gameplay footage showing extremely early elements, but most notably there is a suburbia level which had a layout similar to the levels named "Lily Islands" and "Bow Wow Falls" in the final game.
A stitch has been created from the video to visualize the level layout as seen in the video. 
Research#
Several prototypes have surfaced which contain this level, including the Sony Presentation Build and Build 01, and have given further insight into the footage seen in this build. The level seen above has been identified as Peli's Island, a precursor to Bow Wow Falls.
The footage in this build has been dated to somewhere likely between April 30th, 1997 and May 8th, 1997, since it:
- Has the model texture problems fixed seen in the Sony Presentation Build.
- Does not have an ingame HUD yet.
- Contains the Bang Bang Barrel level.
