    Tech demo from Raylight. It was not intended to be released as an official port.

    I doubt the entire game can fit a GBA cartridge. I mean, yeah, entire Leon scenary of RE2 fit on Gamecom cartridge and 640x480 backgrounds fit on N64 cartridge but ... this demo is 1.3Mb and it just have like 15 very low quality backgrounds (totally washed out, with a few colors), a few voices (gamecom port have more sounds), not much more.

    Who knows, but i doubt it.

    I don't know anything about this project at all but you really shouldn't judge a final game's size on a proof-of-concept demo that hasn't been optimized at all yet (because there's no reason to optimize at that point).

    Back from a vacation. Tried updating as much as I could, may have missed some though so let me know! Surprised as how much has gotten out there actually, neat "betas" and a few unreleased game. 2013's turning out to be a great year for protos.

    Since we're talking about arcade games and protos, you'll probably find some games to add to the list on this website : http://mamedev.emulab.it/haze/

    Anyone can confirm if the Splatterhouse torrent is for real? Looks like it's going to be one seeder forever, kinda raises my doubts...

    Dumping it into uTorrent i get 9 seeds on peer exchange but only one of them connectible and every peer seems to be stuck at around 56%, although i do see it rising very slowly. I have no way of playing it so probably won't let it run but to me it looks like a case of too many peers choking the uploaders connection, patience might pay off, but then again it might lead to confirmation that it's bogus. I do remember a beta copy being up for sale around here though, so they are out there.

    Removed Splatterhouse from the list since it's apparently just a fake. Unless the seeder comes back on and proves otherwise, at least.
