Man, why do they always take the coolest ideas out of the final version? Universal needs to learn to slow down their development process so we don't end up with glitches and missing content. roll

The screenshots are interesting, but I don't think any of these things really would've made the game any better if they were included in the final version. I think the game is perfect the way it is. smile spyro

Re: screenshots of things that... aren't in the game?

same. i think the game's pretty much fine how it is smile

i wonder if they would have kept the fountain in Sunny Villa, if you would have been able to swim in it. as it is, even if you manage to get underneath the water in Sunny Villa (i don't remember how i did that), you can't do a swim-in-air glitch because swimming (underwater) doesn't seem to be programmed into the level.

Re: screenshots of things that... aren't in the game?

I know this thread is a little old, but thanks for posting this! I've been looking everywhere for early screenshots of the game but I just can't seem to find them. Finding sources would be great because it could help us figure out when in development these screenshots were taken - maybe they're all from the same point in development, maybe they're from different points. Things to note though:
-In the fountain screenshot, the second floor of that building is accessible. In the final game, this building actually contains the skate park portal, so it was probably removed to stop players from gliding from the tower down into the room and skipping half the level. Or maybe the tower wasn't there yet.
-In an early demo of the game, with a little bit of hacking you can access the main area of Sunny Villa. You'll quickly find that the stream which is in the final game is a different shape to how it usually is - there's a huge circular pool in the middle, as if they'd just removed the fountain but left the pool underneath as it is.
-The rhynoc in the screenshot with Sheila is seen in the buzz's dungeon cutscene along with Sergeant Byrd's alternate model. Sergeant Byrd uses this model in the early demo of the game, too.
If I find any more information then I'll let you all know.

Re: screenshots of things that... aren't in the game?

Well and the sacrificing a life for the swim in the air glitch isn't always gonna be ideal nor is it that you die when you leave the arena. The only way you can save yourself is to pause and select 'exit area' to leave the world. Knowing this when I did it, I intentionally completed the world first.
