- Back to: Nightmare Circus.
Development
Developed late into the lifespan of the Sega Genesis in North America, Nightmare Circus was virtually complete upon the cancellation of its late 1995 release. A deal was eventually struck with Brazilian Sega distributor Tec Toy to officially publish the game in that region, where the market was younger. Stefano Arnhold has a personal recollection of Nightmare Circus being the only Brazilian-exclusive Mega Drive game not produced in-house by Tectoy themselves.[1]
“ | This was fun to see someone actually caring about this game on the net. This was the first game I ever worked on in my career, The game was serverly delayed, and I was not really happy with the balance. The game should technically be beatable, but it might be too hard to actually do it. I know we had a few cheatcodes in it, but its 15 years since I last looked at the code and I simply can't remember it. | „ |
— Johan Andersson responding to modern fan discussion[2] |
