This teeny-tiny article needs some work. You can help us by expanding it.
Time Trax is an unreleased Sega Mega Drive action game developed by Malibu Interactive and set to be published by Black Pearl Software, based on the TV series of the same name. Originally released for the SNES on April of 1994, the Mega Drive version was cancelled, though Malibu would be sold to GameTek in the coming months which may explain its disappearance.
The game is notable for its use of a relatively advanced sound driver designed by Dean Belfield for Follin - one which was never used in any other Mega Drive games neither before or since. The SNES version uses an entirely different soundtrack.
Many years later title Tim Follin, released the title screen music online. After this, development documents were acquired and a prototype ROM was released to the general public in July 2013. [4]
The game was reviewed by some magazines of the day, and reportedly priced at $59.95 in the US[5].
