This page details one or more prototype versions of Jet Set Radio Future.

A prototype from December 4, 2001 was released as part of Hidden Palace's Project Deluge. It is dated almost two months before the final build and has quite a few differences.

This prototype is documented on Hidden Palace.

Character Icons#

The character icons either have a cartoony look or use a render of the in-game model albeit taken at a different angle than the ones used in the final.

Gum refers to the graffiti marks as triangular instead of round-shaped. This is most likely due to the dialogue not being updated after the design of the mark changed.
