This is a sub-page of Proto:Chicken Run (PlayStation, Windows, Dreamcast).

A very small model preview demo dated almost ten months before the final release, and under five months before the film's actual premiere. It's one of the earliest builds of the game.

General#

Using an early version of the Debug Menu seen in the final game there are only four models to choose from, Ginger, Day & Nighttime Coops and an Interior of one of the Coops. When viewing the models there's watermark at the bottom of the screen showing the development studios and the Jan 18th build date. When viewing the Coops and the Interior the camera flies around the areas to give a good view of all of the area.

Character Model Differences#

Ginger#

Her model is slightly different from the final model.

  • Has a lower poly count compared to the final model.
  • Has earlier textures, ones that'll be used in more builds later on.
  • Her comb is miscolored grey instead of being red.
