A Boy and His Blob (Wii)

To do:
Document unused .wav sound effects, and possibly a test room.

A Boy and His Blob is a charming remake of the cult-classic 1989 NES original featuring hand-drawn animation and all sorts of blobby action that has, in the words of WayForward's Sean Velasco himself, been made a much more "forgiving" experience compared to the original.

Sound Test Room#

This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: Does the door at the top of the level work?

sound_test is a sound test room with 42 tracks. Tracks are selected by feeding jelly beans to various colored blobs.

Unused Video#

testmovie.thp#

The intro to the TV show Sam & Max: Freelance Police!!! was used for testing purposes. The video is cut off early by a few seconds.
