Jelly Boy is an unreleased Sega Mega Drive action platform game developed by Probe Software and slated to be published by Ocean Software in February 1995. While Nintendo Super Famicom and Nintendo Game Boy versions of the game were eventually released, this version remained lost until a fully playable prototype was discovered in 20XX.

Development

Development is presumed to have taken place around 1994 and/or 1995, with review copies being sent to the gaming press, and receiving substantial magazine coverage. Like it's released versions, Jelly Boy was originally set to be published by Electronic Arts, and a copyright credit to the publisher remains on the dumped prototype's title screen.

In 20XX, a seemingly-complete prototype was discovered and made publicly available.
