Marshall Leslie has recently played the incomplete release of Corn Buster, but there is very little information available about the game, and few people know of its existence. Marshall has sent a mail to Engine Software to ask if someone who was involved in the development of Corn Buster would have been willing to provide more information concerning the game’s development history, any planned elements for the game, and the reason for its cancellation. Ruud van de Moosdijk, current VP of Development at Engine Software  who had an integral part in the development of Corn Buster, was nice enough to answer some of the questions!

Corn Buster [SNES – Cancelled]

Corn Buster is an unreleased Super Nintendo game developed by Engine Software. The game is the story of a dragon named Globey, who sets out to defeat the person who’s stolen all the cornflakes in the world. The gameplay is an interesting mix of an Arkanoid-Style ball-and-paddle game and a vertical scrolling shooter. The game quietly began development around 1994, and was canceled soon after interest in the Super Nintendo waned in light of the release of Sony’s Playstation. Some time ago, Engine Software released a ROM of the game for free download on their website. The download page has since been removed, but the ROM is still easily obtainable. The game was 70-80% completed before it was canceled.

Thanks a lot to Marshall Leslie for all these information and screens! If you are a collector, you can buy an official cart of Corn Buster for SNES thanks to Piko Interactive.

The Lost? Not really lost, it just became Agni.

Chentzilla has gave us some interesting informations about The Lost, a cancelled action-adventure / survival horror that was in development for XBOX, PS2 and PC. It seems that the game is not really vanished: in March 2008 it was reported that all development and rights to The Lost was acquired by FXLabs, who later released the game for Windows PCs in India under the title Agni: Queen of Darkness. Agni is thought to feature redone art but keeps The Lost basic plot and gameplay elements intact. A cancelled game is not cancelled anymore: the dream of every beta-geek.
