Holy hell, Crash Bandicoot Returns fooled you as well? That mod haunted my mind for an entire year back when that footage surfaced. It was too good to be true.
NST isn't a set of remasters, it's a remake. A remaster is the original game code, perhaps with some minor modifications to increase graphical fidelty, and optionally with a new coat of paint. It may look different, but the underlying game logic is identical. A complete recreation would be a remake.
I remember the Crystal's Wrath devs releasing some of their older assets & models for fans after they decided to reboot development. While they don't have any obligations to do so, it would be cool if they released whatever they have left of the game for the fans & let them have a crack at making their own Crash fan game while the devs themselves work on their own games like the aforementioned Antonblast.
Oh, wow! I haven't heard of Crash Bandicoot Frost in years! Apparently, the developer of that project stopped working on it due to the N. Sane Trilogy being released.
@@theloaten17 There is a running joke among PC builders: "but can it run Crysis?" Crysis was an FPS game released by Crytek using the CryEngine in 2007... The same engine would be used for the Far Cry series of games later on... Crysis was (and still remains to be) notorious for being taxing to run even on high-end systems at the time. The graphics were certainly breathtaking for the time, but the frame-rate would be low and laggy even on today's modern hardware. Optimization was an afterthought for this game, and it served more as a tech demo than anything, really.
I got pretty nostolgic hearing about Crystals Wrath. I was so hyped for the game back in 2012. Also you forgot to mention N EUROSIS, which was the earlier version of "Retro Hijinx" .
odd to know that there is earlier versions of that game that weren’t released to the public, But I think Loaten had enough of Guyus’ antics for the time being.
Very interesting video! I had never heard of any of these fan games, but it is always interesting to see some of these projects even if they were never finished. Fan games are always a mixed bag in terms of quality and many times they never even get completed. There are some great finished fan games out there, but it seems that they are the exception rather than the rule.
Crash bandicoot returns had a lost trailers or gameplays (i think) i can't find one gameplay of crash un the moon with the polar stages song, an crash bandicoot frost...Man i really want to played back un the day, i really love the desing
The footage of crash on the moon is still on TH-cam, it just takes a little digging to find it. Search "All Known Footage of Crash Bandicoot Returns". Also put "before:2014"
I love those games man, they were my childhood! I hope I could bring more crash content to my channel, but unfortunately this isn't my fanbase right now...anyway, keep going bro!🎉
Where can i find the dev videos of Crash Bandicoot Legacy ? Especially the one that says "prototyping 001" at the top of the screen? I think they have a cool vibe to them
It’s weird I was old enough to remember most of these on this list and yearning for when for an eventual release. But Returns is interesting because it was just Crysis mod which was an FPS game which makes its build more impressive. There was an Rayman fangame made in the Crysis engine too, since the developers made their engine open source, sort of like Unreal Engine. I was a bit older at the time, probably in my teens when Returns was showcased. But I do remember they had like two-three update videos but I didn’t know it was lost to time though. There was a lot of crash fangames made during the drought. I feel like a lot of crash fangames got cancelled just due to NSane Trilogy coming out. It was really the case of why make our fangames when the original came back? I think the only fangame from that era which didn’t cease was Crystal Wrath.
N Sane wasn’t photorealistic, it was a great balance between the cartoony aesthetic and “realism” it’s actually pretty cartoony, except things still look textured, and not like plastic.
Crash Bandicoot Returns and Legacy all the way. i remember crash bandicoot frost the developer was sound ended up gettin proper good views on his gta vids.

You are exactly right and it's also the same with Spyro Reignited Trilogy and Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled.
The Reignited Trilogy's a remake too.

Loved the video!! didn't know about a good portion of these games and looking forward to trying a few out! 😀

I enjoyed this video - it was a nostalgia trip and quite professionally done!
I'm glad to know that it is a universal experience for anyone who was young during the crash drought to be fooled by NEW CRASH BANDICOOT GAME 2012
Activision......

The part where you burped had me laughing my ass off
And the less we talk about Retro Hijinx, the better.
I didn’t know Crystal’s wrath led to the Anton game
That was a shock to me too. I guess that explains why AntonBlast has a few Crash Bandicoot sound effects in it.
Are these fangames still playable?
@@paninoselvatico5815 They never were
@@theloaten17 oh
does anyone remember crash flash ?
Yes

You should talk about the weird crash fan games like Crash Bandicoot Underwater 1 and 2 lol. I think it would be a funny video.
Lets go crash fangames
You should talk about Crash Twinsanity Infinity. Its a fan remake of Twinsanity which tries to include as much as possible cut content
Are you feeling ok?
And I don't mean because Crystal's Wrath is listed as "forgotten" for some reason, I'm talking about the constant burping lol
@@crashtefano its a symptom of being a gamer
I love Watching your videos a lot and i like Crash Bandicoot too.
Crash Bandicoot Returns and Legacy all the way. i remember crash bandicoot frost the developer was sound ended up gettin proper good views on his gta vids.
Man I didn't think Crash had that many fan games
can someone PLEASE tell me what the song that starts playing at 10:43 is it's on the tip of my tongue but I can't find it DX

Hey man, I just found your channel and love the content. I would love the opportunity for a collaboration if you're interested.
