| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) | comment |
In the late 1990s, Rareware had an idea for a new game: Dinosaur Planet. It would be an Action-Adventure game based around an alien planet. The two main characters are anthropomorphic canines named Sabre (a wolf) and Krystal (a fox). Sabre is a knight of the Wolven Tribe, and the son of a powerful wizard named Randorn. Krystal is an orphaned Vixon and Randorn's adopted daughter. Somehow, the two end up transported from their home planet of Animus to Dinosaur Planet, which is threatened by the despotic dictator, General Scales.Both Sabre and Krystal are playable characters that are used in different sections of the game. They play similarly, with Sabre wielding a sword while Krystal wields a staff. Sabre has a sidekick named Tricky and Krystal's sidekick is Kyte.Dinosaur Planet was an ambitious title for the Nintendo 64. In development between 1999 and 2000, Dinosaur Planet pushed the hardware capabilities of the dying console. It would have been a swan song... if it had come out as expected. Instead, as the game was a late release title, it was ultimately decided that the game should be moved to the upcoming Nintendo GameCube. During this phase, Shigeru Miyamoto noticed that the two protagonists, Krystal and Sabre, looked a lot like Fox McCloud of the Star Fox franchise. This comment led to the game being reworked into Star Fox Adventures. As a result of being a Dolled-Up Installment with drastically different gameplay, Star Fox Adventures became an Oddball in the Series.Dinosaur Planet was far into development when it was ultimately canceled. Most, if not all, of the voice acting had been done, much of the game was finished, and it had been shown off at several events.A playable prototype of the game was finally leaked on February 20, 2021 by Forest of Illusion, a video game preservation project. The prototype is dated to December 1, 2000, late enough in the game's development cycle that Sabre has already been reskinned into Fox McCloud, complete with Fox being referred to by name in some voice-acted dialogue; however, he still uses Sabre's HUD icon, other spoken dialogue still calls him Sabre, and the story itself seems to be largely unchanged from the original version. Shortly after its release, The Cutting Room Floor began putting together an article documenting the changes made since the game's showcasing at E3 2000. Currently, there is an active community of volunteers working to make the game playable from start to finish. The current roadmap of their efforts can be found here.The ROM for the game prototype is available for download from the Internet Archive here. The most recent fan-made patch as of July 2022, referred to as "Dinomod Extended," includes a complete restoration of Sabre's original dialogue and model, along with numerous bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements to grant the game a more optimal performance for both emulators and real hardware.A summary of the plot, screenshots, and videos of gameplay can be found here at Rare Thief. All recorded dialogue in the prototype build is compiled in this video, while many cutscenes can be watched in this video.Definitely not to be confused with the speculative fiction documentary by Discovery Channel, or the comedy rock opera. | |

| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: This game is a lot darker than Star Fox Adventures, with a lot more onscreen death, moral ambiguity and an overall gloomier and more somber atmosphere and tone. | |

Evil Versus Evil | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_1645005b | comment |
Evil Versus Evil: Initially, the Great War of the Krazoa and Kamerian Dragons is exposited as a straightforward good versus evil. However, this turns out not to be the case, and the Krazoa telling this story is an Unreliable Expositor. When going back to the past, Krystal learns that it was actually the Krazoa who started the Great War, hoping to wipe out the Kamerians so that the Quan Ata Lachu would allow only them to rule the universe. This leaves Krystal with a dilemma, unsure whether she should continue helping the Krazoa after learning that they're not as good as they claim. | |

Soft Water: After being teleported above the Golden Plains, Krystal and General Scales both fall from a great height. Krystal lands in a pond and is unscathed. The same can't be said for Scales, who lands back-first a rock and is left moaning in pain before finally passing out. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall: Rubble speaks directly to the player in the SwapStone tutorial, explaining that they will have to play as both Krystal and Sabre to complete the adventure. He's clearly not speaking to Krystal, since he refers to her in third-person and is looking right into the camera. | |

Uncertain Doom: General Scales is defeated when he lands back-first on a rock and then passes out. Just before losing consciousness, he swears that he will have his revenge, which would suggest that he survives; however, since he is never seen again in the story after this, he could just as likely have died. | |

Must Make Amends | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_2e5e04c0 | comment |
Must Make Amends: Krystal was adopted by Randorn as an infant, specifically to make amends for the fact that he was the one who personally orphaned her when he massacred her entire tribe in a fit of sorrow-induced rage. Krystal was the only one who survived his rampage, and only because she wasn't noticed until he had calmed down enough to be horrified at what he'd done. | |

Early Installment Character-Design Difference | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_4348c929 | comment |
Early Installment Character-Design Difference: Many of the characters in this game have different designs than they do in Star Fox Adventures. Krystal is probably the most notable, wearing a full yellow dress, lacking the blue hair on her head, and looking younger and more rotund, far more modest than her appearance in the Star Fox series. | |

Sequel Hook | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_6293c185 | comment |
There are voice lines in the game's files for what appears to be the ending after the Drakor battle, relating to the Alignment of the Majestic Eight (the planets of the galaxy). They were incomplete, somewhat out of context, and left a few questions unanswered but from what there is: The Krazoa would be revealed to be evil and unhinged, listing off the names of various planets and musing about their plans for conquest and to spread evil and death across the galaxy. It's not entirely clear if the alignment was stopped or not, but Krystal, Sabre, and Randorn apparently would have made a break for the teleporter back to their homeworld, with at least Randorn (and possibly Sabre, although his fate is not confirmed by these voice files) managing to get into it. Randorn would have attempted to tell Krystal the truth of him killing Krystal's tribe but he would end up failing to do so. Afterward, Krystal is stranded on Dinosaur Planet, as one of the Swap Stones notes his magic has faded. However, Krystal meets Tricky's parents, who state the tribes of Dinosaur Planet are gathering strength and aim to combat the Krazoa. It's unclear whether this is an unfinished ending or if it was intended to leave a Sequel Hook. | |

Cutscene Boss | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_9256ac7c | comment |
Cutscene Boss: Much like Star Fox Adventures, General Scales is defeated in cutscenes without a proper boss battle. This time, Scales confronts Krystal and Princess Kyte in the Desert Force Point Temple as she shuts it down with the last SpellStone. This activates a teleporter, sending all three of them to the Golden Plains. Scales is unceremoniously defeated when he lands back-first on a rock, although he swears that he will have his revenge just before falling unconscious. | |

Heel Realization: After being confronted by Krystal about their dark past, the lone Krazoa admits that they were wrong to have started the Great War, and insists that they have changed for the better. However, the condensed story's cliffhanger raises the question that this may have not been genuine, which is supported by the Krazoa's rather villainous dialogue during the alignment of the majestic eight in the leaked build. | |

My God, What Have I Done?: After Randorn slaughtered the Vixon village, he calmed down and was promptly horrified by what he'd done. Only then did he find baby Krystal, and he took her in to make amends for his crime. | |

Unreliable Expositor | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_a5adbbe7 | comment |
Unreliable Expositor: A lone Krazoa tells Krystal about the Great War, presenting it as a Black-and-White Morality with the evil Kamerian Dragons deeming themselves more worthy than the Quan Ata Lachu and the noble Krazoa fighting for good. However, when Krystal goes back to the past and witnesses the Great War herself, she learns that it was actually Evil Versus Evil wherein the Krazoa actually started the war in a bid to rule the universe. Even Drakor admonishes Sabre for believing everything that the Krazoa claimed. Although the lone Krazoa claims to have reformed, the story outline suggests that this might just be another lie, which is supported by more in-game dialogue for the alignment of the majestic eight. | |

Sole Survivor: Krystal is the only survivor of her tribe, the Vixon, because Randorn massacred the rest, and only spared Krystal because the rage had subsided enough for him to realize what he had done. | |

Dull Surprise | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_c1b2c63f | comment |
Dull Surprise: In the leaked build, Fox's model is locked into a single facial expression, with eyes staring blankly forward at all times; only his mouth is able to move. This leaves him with very little room for visually emoting. Contrast this with Krystal's model, which is far more expressive and able to emote. | |

Big Bad Wannabe: Just like in Star Fox Adventures, General Scales only appears to be the Big Bad and is later usurped by the true villain. To his credit he is a more consistent and present threat than he would be in Adventures, but he is still no match for Drakor. | |

Video Game Caring Potential: According to the condensed story, Randorn's survival depends on the player taking the time to plant moonseeds in advance. Doing so will bring Randorn back to health, and he will have a "special surprise" for them as a reward. If not, then Randorn dies. | |

Good Is Boring: The Krazoa ascribe to this, planning to use the Quan Ata Lauchu to bring war, death, fear, terror, and disease; things they feel make the universe "alive." | |

No Ending | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_ea2e9f2d | comment |
No Ending: The condensed story outline ends on a cliffhanger as Sabre prepares to fight Drakor, and it raises several questions about the ending that will only be resolved by playing the game... unfortunately, the leaked build does not have a finished ending, essentially leaving these questions unanswered on the same cliffhanger as the previously mentioned story outline. There are voice lines in the game's files for what appears to be the ending after the Drakor battle, relating to the Alignment of the Majestic Eight (the planets of the galaxy). They were incomplete, somewhat out of context, and left a few questions unanswered but from what there is: The Krazoa would be revealed to be evil and unhinged, listing off the names of various planets and musing about their plans for conquest and to spread evil and death across the galaxy. It's not entirely clear if the alignment was stopped or not, but Krystal, Sabre, and Randorn apparently would have made a break for the teleporter back to their homeworld, with at least Randorn (and possibly Sabre, although his fate is not confirmed by these voice files) managing to get into it. Randorn would have attempted to tell Krystal the truth of him killing Krystal's tribe but he would end up failing to do so. Afterward, Krystal is stranded on Dinosaur Planet, as one of the Swap Stones notes his magic has faded. However, Krystal meets Tricky's parents, who state the tribes of Dinosaur Planet are gathering strength and aim to combat the Krazoa. It's unclear whether this is an unfinished ending or if it was intended to leave a Sequel Hook. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_eb8f64a6 | comment |
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Krystal frees a captured LightFoot, who rewards her with a spell page. Later, when Krystal is captured by the LightFoot Tribe, the same LightFoot accuses her of being a thief who stole the spell page, and she is tied to a totem pole and jabbed at with spears. Understandably, Krystal is angry and reluctant to help the LightFoot Tribe again afterward. It's implied that Randorn sparing and adopting Krystal would backfire horribly if she ever learned the truth. | |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute | |
| Dinosaur Planet (Rare) (Video Game) / int_f5a3e496 | comment |
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Fox acts as one for Sabre in the leaked prototype, which was made right when Rare started retooling the game into Star Fox Adventures. He even introduces himself as a royal knight of the Lylat System, even though Fox is neither royal nor a knight like Sabre. Sabre's icon is still used in the game's HUD, and the prototype still contains other leftover data for Sabre, indicating that this was very early into the retooling process. | |

You Killed My Father: When General Scales kills Princess Kyte's mother, the Queen CloudRunner, Kyte forgoes all caution or stealth and instead flies directly towards them. It ends up getting her captured. It's implied that, if Krystal were ever to find out what Randorn did to her birth parents and home village, she would despise him. | |
