Polar Bowler: Pineapple Cup is the sequel to Polar Golfer, with Hawaiian scenery, two new characters, and a rather loud announcer.

"Hey you lolo, that out of bounds!"

Unused Graphics#

Loading Screen Mockup#

back_with_ads_mockup.jpg is a developer's partial mockup of the game's loading screen, with space for the "advertisements" the game will occasionally show during loading. This mockup has a static loading progress bar, along with some text saying "Loading..." that isn't present in the final.

Unused Course Graphics#

1 and 3 Hole Game Select#

These two graphics are for choosing to play a single- or three-hole game. The final game only allows you to play either the front or back nine holes, or all 18 in one game.

Locked Play Options#

There's also unused graphics for locked course options. None of the gameplay options are ever locked, but they might have been intended for demo versions of the game.

Early Character Icons#

Returning from the last game are seven older, unused icons of Polar Golfers player characters, in a file namedtouixang'.

Locked Character Icons#

Two locked icons for the Bear and the Hula Girl, respectively. These are the default characters available from the start, rendering these unnecessary (and therefore unused).
