A late prototype of Banjo-Pilot, dated September 29, 2004, was released by MrHashshashin on January 1, 2022. At this point, the game is nearly finalized.

General Differences#

  • This build skips the copyright and title screen and goes immediately to the main menu.
  • The Multiplayer option no longer crashes the game.
  • Bottles' music and cutscene voice clips remain the same as the voxel build.
  • The animations on the character select screen have been re-rendered to be smoother.

Prototype

Final

  • The "Monkey Madness!" track remains unaltered from the 2003 Diddy Kong Racing build.
  • The scene with the racers standing on the podium has no sound effects, and some characters (Mumbo Jumbo, Humba Wumba, Jolly Roger, and Klungo) use their idle character select screen animations as placeholders.
  • Witchyworld doesn't play its unique music track yet, though it is present (it plays for all the Grunty cutscenes).
  • The end credits aren't present yet. If the player completes the Grunty GP and speaks with Grunty, the game will attempt to load them and crash.
  • The Jiggy Challenge does not point out where the Jiggies are.
