A prototype of Frogger 2: Swampy's Revenge for Windows. Appears to be PC#4 Milestone, according to the dates found on the printed out document Projectchecklist.doc (10 November, 1999).

Known Rendering Issues:

  • Triangles rendering instead of quads (rectangles) for the game world.
  • Constant flickering where every other frame rendered is blank.
  • IMPORTANT: Certain monitors may flicker after running this prototype even when the game is closed. This is a result of the previously mentioned flicker causing a buildup charge (how LCD panels work), and it will dissipate after enough time has passed.

Rendering issues can be fixed by using DxWnd, by following the instructions included with the build.

Notes

  • Extremely early build.
  • Showcases some of the original plans for abnormally shaped levels.
  • Contains the level editor.
  • Uses sound effects from Frogger 1.
  • Seems to have significant rendering problems on certain hardware configurations.
