This page details one or more prototype versions of Pocahontas Part 2.

This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: Check the source code.

A prototype of Pocahontas Part 2 dated December 22, 1997 was released by ex-Super Game member Maxzhou88, who also released prototypes of Super Game's Boogerman and Earthworm Jim 2.

This prototype, named simply Pocahontas, is an extremely early build with a ton of differences from the released game - such as bad collisions. Maxzhou88 also kindly included the source code in the archive.

General Differences#

  • This version has worse collisions than the final game, but better scrolling.
  • The cutscene uses the final's title screen music and can be skipped by pressing Start, unlike the final version.

Proto

Final

  • As noted above, the game is simply Pocahontas at this point.
  • Different music plays on the title screen.
