Road Rash (Game Boy)

This page details one or more prototype versions of Road Rash (Game Boy).

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Some changes to graphics when compared side by side in Tile Layer Pro.

This prototype of the Game Boy Road Rash seems to have originally been released by a scene group named Anthrox, as the credits include "Released by A N T H R O X" instead of "Developed by The Code Monkeys".

General Differences#

• The game can be played on Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance, albeit with minor graphical glitches. This may not sound like much, but the final version cannot be played on those systems due to relying on a quirk of the original Game Boy.

Visual Differences#

Proto	Final

The perspective at the starting line was changed.

Text Differences#

• The character "Helldog" was changed to "Maddog" in the final.
• The following dialogue was toned down:
