      "Has that sort of cheap American cartoon look." It's actually British. https://www.unseen64.net/2009/03/28/kartoon-kombat-text-from-the-lost-game/ …https://twitter.com/FalcoLambda/status/1234901957460008960 …

      Kaius / FΛLCO @FalcoLambda
      Kartoon Kombat was a fighting game to be developed by Technos in 1994. The game was featured at CES 1994 where it was called 'terrible'. It was slated for Autumn '94, but delayed to Holiday '94 and then being cancelled. There's a damaged prototype of it still in existence. pic.twitter.com/Oj2TCUI6mj

      The lead programmer of that company has a game called “Comic Relief ‘94” on his resume. Might be the same project? http://www.gavinwade.co.uk/

      Probably not. Someone in the comments brings up "Toon Fighter." (He's on Twitter, BTW.) http://miraclestudios.co.uk/gavinwadeblog/?page_id=9 …

      The actual code bit from Unseen64 lists it as “TOON FIGHTERS” so there is definitely a connection. Like to weigh in on this @miracle_studios?

      Wow, surprised that ever got anywhere near a magazine! We made a proof of concept for Megadrive, but had to stop developing it because the funding provided was only enough for one member of staff at 6 months max. There was no real gameplay, just a mock-up.

      Nope, long lost to magnetic degradation, acts of violence and/or the receiver (stuff went to auction and was probably formatted).

          It was intended as a charity supporting game. A character based on the Red Nose. It was under NDA with Sega, so probably still can’t say much.
