This article has a talk page!This page details pre-release information and/or media for RocketBowl (Xbox 360).
Very Early Prototype Footage#
There exist three YouTube videos from the developer of the Xbox 360 version of RocketBowl (21-6 Productions), and a fourth video from an unknown source, showcasing a very early prototype of what would eventually become RocketBowl for the Xbox 360.
These are clearly from a very early point in development, however the actual date of this build and footage is completely unknown.
The prototype showcased in these videos is running on a PC and uses PhysX for ball and bowling pin physics.
All three videos from 21-6 Productions were uploaded on January 8th, 2010, 485 days after the release of RocketBowl for Xbox 360.
The three videos from 21-6 Productions have no sound, while the fourth video from an unknown source seems to have had the audio added in editing.
RocketBowl 360 High Resolution Terrains#
Watch on YouTubeThis video showcases an early version of Quickstrike Alley, the first course in the final game. It is much more reminiscent of the PC version of the course, and is nowhere near the complete remake seen in the final version of Xbox 360 RocketBowl.
RocketBowl 360 Prototype#
Watch on YouTubeThis video showcases some prototype gameplay. Some assets are ported straight from the PC version of RocketBowl (such as the $5 coin), while others seem to be exclusive to this prototype build. The physics are shown to be in an incredibly rough state, with the gravity being noticeably floaty.

RocketBowl Demo Movie#
Watch on YouTubeThis last video is not sourced from 21-6 Productions' YouTube channel, instead it is sourced from a channel called Enrique G. Gálvez, it was uploaded on December 8th, 2013. This channel is probably not the original source for this video, however any other possible source hasn't been found.
This video showcases the footage shown in the last two videos, however with sound added, and new footage in between the aforementioned clips. A possible mockup title screen is shown at the beginning and the end of the video, which is just the title screen from PC RocketBowl with an Xbox 360 icon where the bowling ball is meant to be in the RocketBowl logo, and the Xbox 360 logo where "Admit One" is in the PC title screen.
