A prototype of Airball for the NES.

Notes

  • Earlier prototype.
  • Unreleased puzzle and action game that was in development by Novotrade and published by Tengen. The game was cancelled for unknown reasons. Two prototypes were found with one being produced as a reproduction cart in 2007.
  • Boots to a more simplistic Tengen title screen in comparison to later builds.
  • Stays at the title screen indefinitely. Later builds will have a series of demo sequences after the title screen.
  • Pressing start at the title screen displays the "GET THE SPELLBOOK" prompt but without the voice or the sequence that precedes this.
  • Starting area is different.
  • Different HUD. HUD contains a label for the pressure meter. Later builds will display the room number instead.
