Unused Text

Zool Leftovers

english.txt has some leftover text from the cancelled Zool pitch. This text also appears in Ninjabread Man.

LS_FRONTEND_TITLE_LEVELSELECT=CHOOSE A LEVEL
LS_FRONTEND_ITEMS_LEVEL1=SWEET WORLD
LS_FRONTEND_ITEMS_LEVEL2=TOY WORLD
LS_FRONTEND_ITEMS_LEVEL3=MUSIC WORLD
LS_FRONTEND_ITEMS_LEVEL4=EGYPT WORLD
LS_FRONTEND_ITEMS_LEVEL5=WORLD

Judging by the worlds' names, it's easy to assume that "SWEET WORLD" became Ninjabread Man, "TOY WORLD" became Trixie in Toyland, "MUSIC WORLD" became Rock 'n' Roll Adventures, and "EGYPT WORLD" became this game. Given that the fifth world has no listed theme, and that there was no fifth game in this pseudo-series, it seems the idea for a fifth world was scrapped early on.

It's also worth noting that all of these worlds are named after the Zool levels they're based on, with the exception of Egypt World, which seems to be either loosely based on Desert Island World from Zool, or Tooting Common from Zool 2. Given that all of these worlds/games are based on levels from Zool, it's likely that the fifth world would have followed suit.

Unused Audio
