Katarn must return to his Jedi ways to stop a branch of the Imperial Remnant led by the Dark Jedi Desann from empowering their army with the Force. Jedi Outcast was developed using a more powerful game engine, id Tech 3. The hack and slash combat introduced in Dark Forces II was heavily reworked, becoming the main focus of the gameplay instead of the shooter elements, which are prominent only during the first few missions of the game.

QUAKE (Game Boy Advance Prototype) | The Story of Quake on the Game Boy Advance Made by Randy Linden

This is the prototype of Quake for Game Boy Advance made by Randy Linden in 2002. Upon booting the game, we can instantly see how impressive this demo is for the hardware, with its capabilities effectively managing to outshine just about every 3D game out there that was released for the system. Not only that, it feels exactly like a Quake game. From the guns to the environments. You can even dive underwater! The game is fully 3D rendered, rather than the ray casting method most GBA games are known for. It has 3D enemies, animations, and point lighting effects (even on pre-rendered objects like weapons, which use a clever palette-changing trick to achieve the illusion of dynamic lighting). The camera and movement work is equally as incredible; it travels very cleanly, as opposed to being jittery.

Star Wars: Dark Forces is a first-person shooter video game developed and published by LucasArts. It was released in 1995 for MS-DOS and Macintosh, and in 1996 for PlayStation. The story is set in the Star Wars Expanded Universe and begins shortly before the original film, then jumps forward one year after the events of the movie. The protagonist and playable character is Kyle Katarn, a mercenary working for the Rebel Alliance who discovers the Galactic Empire's secret Dark Trooper project, which involves the development of a series of powerful new battle droids and armored stormtroopers.

Upon release, the PC and Macintosh versions received generally favorable reviews, praising their level design and technological advancements, although the PlayStation version was criticized for its poor graphics and low frame rate. The game was also a major commercial success, selling nearly one million copies in the United States by 1999. Its success spurred the Star Wars: Jedi Knight series, beginning with the direct sequel Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II in 1997.

This is a short demo of Dark Eden for the Game Boy Advance by Rival Dreams. As one of the developers, Kynan Pearson, stated, they were highly influenced by Symphony of the Night and Metroid. You journey around a castle collecting four different power ups: the run, the wall jump, the fire sword, and the super jump. It’s a short and sweet demo that can be completed in one sitting. The controls are a bit slippery, but that’s to be expected from an early demo. You may notice that the build released here differs slightly from the photos within the Time Extension article; it lacks copyright information and has more refined character art and logo. This is because those images were partly concept art featuring various elements which never made it into the game. The project was canned when the three developers for the project couldn’t find a publisher to fund the project.
