This short article is in need of work. You can help Sonic Retro by adding to it. |
The following list contains other scrapped Badniks which were to be featured in Sonic the Hedgehog 2. The badniks were taken from concept art found here:
Contents
Cactus
Though Dust Hill Zone was scrapped early in development, badniks were still designed for the level. Cactus is one of them - a badnik which would be either mobile or stationary and would flash green and red before exploding. It appears to be similar to Sonic 1's Bomb badnik. An armadillo is also present.
Dragonfly
Dragonfly is a airborn badnik which drops sections off its abdomen which would explode as they hit the ground. The concept may have led to the Bee or Buzzer badniks.
Lobster
Lobster is a badnik which would swim underwater. It may have been similar to the Zaririn badnik from the 8-bit version of the game.
Mole
Mole is a badnik which appears to drill through walls to attack Sonic if he comes too close. This design may have led to the Grounder badnik.
Penguin
A Penguin badnik with a spring on it's nose which would attempt knock Sonic away. Sonic would be forced to roll on the ground to defeat it. A similar design was used with the Crawl badnik, possibly because after scrapping Winter Zone there were no longer any "cold" levels where Penguins were suitable.
Pig
Various incarnations of a Pig badnik which seems to have evolved from a tank/cannon. It appears it was to shoot projectiles from its snout.
Porcupine
Porcupine seems to be a land-based badnik badnik. Possibly one that could only be rolled into.
Pteredactyl or Vulture
Pteredactyl or Vulture is a badnik which would fly in the air, opening a hatch in its stomach to drop projectiles on Sonic.
Squid
Squid appears to be a badnik which was to appear in underwater sections. More concept art can be seen here.
Unamed Stegosaurus
There were numerous scrapped dinosaur badniks, such as this Stegosaurus. As Hidden Palace Zone contained the Redz and Stego badniks, they may have been planned for that zone.Unamed T-Rex
A T-Rex. It's possible that the scrapped time travel concept influenced some of these designs.Unamed Octopus
This Octopus may have been an early version of the Octus badnik.
Unamed Flying Thing
A strange Flying Thing which may of been a eagle or some type of dinosaur. It may have become the Balkiry enemy.
Unamed Thing
Some Unamed Thing which may of been a lizard or some type of dinosaur.
Unamed Grasshopper
An 'Unamed Grasshopper. Sonic 3's Mantis badnik may have recycled this concept.
Unamed Flying Thing 2
Unamed Flying Thing which may have also been a grasshopper.
Unamed Spring Orb
Spring Orb badnik which hops and tries to land on Sonic to do damage.
Various Dinosaurs
Various Dinosaurs of various sorts.
