Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd You Steal Our Garbage?!! (Nintendo DS)

Adventure Time meets Zelda II. It's a good game with stellar writing while it lasts.

It was also released for the 3DS, featuring more soundtrack, better graphics, better sound quality and things that aren't present in the DS version. There's also a Konami Code Easter Egg.

Prototype Info Notes

Unused Graphics#

The game has a file named StrikerTest.anim which contains a boss graphic from the GBA version of X-Men: The Official Game, also by WayForward. This is also the only image that uses pure green as a background instead of actual transparency like the other images.

A Fionna button, stored with the rest of the game's menu buttons. According to the game design document, this would have appeared on the file select screen after a save file is 100% cleared, allowing you to play through a standalone dungeon as Fionna and Cake. In the final game, Fionna, Cake, and the Ice Queen were reduced to a cameo at the end of the credits, possibly using sprites made for this mode.

A Boss Rush button, also stored with the menu buttons. According to the game design document, this would have appeared on the file select screen after beating New Game+. The final game does not include a boss rush feature.

Test Levels#

Unused Music#

To do: Maybe check if the audio files still exist in the game? The first track is used in the prototype.

For some reason, some songs are never used in the game, but are present on the official D3Publisher soundtrack album.
