The slime enemies are called Zols. Zols exist in Zelda 1, ALttP, Link's Awakening, and the Oracles to name a few games. Weird how they never made the transition to 3D.
Technically Chus from Twilight Princess are those, but with a different name and they produce Chu Jelly
Zols break down into small Gels. Then in Zelda 2 you had Bits and Bots, neither of which break down. Since the OoT beta ones break down into smaller ones I would agree with you that they are Zols. The TP Chus should also be Zols.
I think they just became the Chus in later games, and they never bothered to retcon the original. Or maybe that's just what they were called at that Hyrule timeline.
Zelda 2 just randomly renamed a bunch of monsters unnecessarily to add confusion (Keese are called "Aches" for some inexplicable reason, and you'll never convince me that Iron Knuckles and Darknuts are not the same thing).
@@dawnbreaker2912 can the Zelda 2 shenanigans be chalked up to translation liberties?
@@Wyatt_James Almost certainly.
They never thought people would actually care that much about their games back then. Deep lore beards weren’t all about video game lore back then because the limitations of the medium.

That Beta Octorok is cute. He's so happy to be found ^^
We've been looking for him for a while, i'm glad he is :)
(TURNS INTO THE BETA OCTOROK) meow
Beta Iron Knuckle is based on his original design in the first Zelda, hence the winged helmet.
Good eye on that! There definitely is an allusion to them designing the characters and enemies like NES Zelda including the Stalfos looking more like their Zelda 1 variant
Darknuts, you mean?
You mean Zelda II?
Here's to learning about more cut content
Hopefully it was informative :)
It was really cool to see some info on some cut enemies from Ocarina of Time. I really like the prototype Octoroks as you can see how they tried so hard to model it off the original NES version....and it looks so ridiculously out of place-straight out of the early trailers!
The current version in comparison looks so much different.
I also want to give a high five to whomever in the development team thought to use the ARWING to simulate Volvagia’s movements-that’s some ingenuity right there! The beta chu was funky to see as well. I wonder why it was scrapped? I always love when a prototype element from an earlier game makes its way into a newer one-like how we see the chus in Twilight Princess and Wind Waker.
All of these videos have been very enjoyable to watch so far. I basically eat up any alpha/beta/cut Zelda content, so the gigaleak was a great time for me LOL
Thank you! Yeah I feel early builds of Zelda 64 were taking more a NES inspiration with its cartoony design while later they started to go for more the ALTTP realistic look.
I do have in the description a link to the interview of the Arwing which credits the guys who thought of this genius move if you are interested.
I imagine the Beta Chu was taken out cause him splitting apart into multiple enemies may have been a bit much for the N64s memory to muster.
Regardless, thank you for enjoying all these! planning to return with more.
I thought that I was watching a swanky box video, good job man!
Thanks! Not the first time some have thought that. Glad you enjoyed it!
@@TheObsessiveGamer I I'm happy that they found Luigi in Mario64
Notice how the beta floormaster/wallmaster has 4 fingers, while the final one has 5. This change was probably done to conform to censorship laws and standards, because four fingers is associated with Yakuza.
Hmmm is there a censorship law like that considering Yakuza games have the 4 finger display at times?
@@TheObsessiveGamer The four-fingered thing isn't a law as far as I know, but it's still a standard in that publishers will usually self-censor themselves in order to avoid controversy. There are cases like the Simpsons which famously have 4 fingers without much trouble, but on the other hand, there are many cases where publishers go through the effort and expense to add a finger.
you're videos are really interesting and well made man keep up the good work!
Thank you!
I watched many Zelda theory videos before. But newly discovered your videos. I've seen some cut contents of the game before, but for example I never thought of Arwing animation was used for Volvagia. And your videos kinda reminds me of Dr. Wily's Zelda videos. Thanks for putting up a lot of effort and making these videos! 💖
Great video man, keep up the good work. Thumbs up from Italy
Thank you! Will plan to!
As a child i swear the ar-wing would appear in the ice cavern room with the boots. Its the strangest thing i feel like im having a Berenstien bears moment
I imagine the game could have glitchrd to make the arwing appear as it's not programmed at all to appear there. Maybe the actors!/objects code glitched to it
@@TheObsessiveGamer thats what i assume happened it must have been a bug, i had just assumed was an Easter egg all these years haha
I hope I don't work when this is premiering aaa
Hopefully you are are then. If not, always can watch later and try for another premiere :)
What I find interesting about the Beta Iron Knuckles is how close they were to how Iron Knuckles were in Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link, with them wielding a Sword & Shield and everything. Though having Iron Knuckles wield an axe in the final game does help the Iron Knuckles stand out from Darknuts. Even though Darknuts & Iron Knuckles never appear in same the game together outside of The CD-i games, Cadence of Hyrule and The Relics of Hyrule Mod for Skyrim.
Thx for all the information! :D
No problem! glad you enjoyed it!
@@TheObsessiveGamer :D
Floormaster is really Ganondorf's hand and they are nasty.
3:10 Slimes, they are in the final game game. They are the floor slugs that are always on Fire. Found in the Adult Fire Temple, you can flip them over with the Hammer and they make the same sound as the "Like-Like's"
(I forget the name of those things)
I consider them seperately as slimes are supposed to split apart. Both are soft though lol
@@TheObsessiveGamer soft and floor-based, it's all the same to me.
thanks for the video
5:09 "Don't mess up that Arwing!"
Thanks for watching! We got a Discord running now too. Join our growing community: discord.gg/26q4ChH
no no no i missed the premiere again!!
Always next time :)
Just a thought but could the beta poe model have been used for the poem in the desert that you need the lens of truth to see that guides you through the desert so you can get to the sprit temple
Omg dude that beta Octorok is so freaking cute 😍🐙
The first time I saw the Arwing in OOT is a video showing a montage of OOT photos. And because of that, I thought the Arwing was photoshopped until I saw actual gameplay footage.
Yeah it's a weird one that one would at first think is fake.
@@TheObsessiveGamer how can you load it into the game please?
I think that the chu enemies from Majora’s Mask might be more direct descendants to those slimes
TH-cam is drunk again... it says 126 comments, 8 views and 79 likes..
Anyways, Great vid, Cant wait for your next vid! 👍
Yeah that happens sometimes lol. Thanks for watching!
What is the outro theme? I can't remember!
That is the end/credits theme of Ocarina of Time :)
@@TheObsessiveGamer I feel so stupid for past me.
I would have instantly known had I not been so sleep deprived!
Thanks for your exhaustive coverage of the game btw. I didn't grow up with the original but playing 3d in middle school during summer vacation was quite the magical experience. So I really value stuff like this.
Great work as always.
Additionally if you don't mind maybe the end slate segment with the video links and subscription stuff should be lengthened for about 10 to 15 seconds longer than it is now?
Just a suggestion. Regardless Thanks again
@@PrimevalDemon Thank you! 3D is the definitive way to play it, so good on you! I usually like to make those 20 seconds just cause that is the limit TH-cam allows and gives people time to click on it
I don't remember if this was confirmed or not, but wasn't Ocarina originally being developed as a Zelda II overhaul/ remake on the N64? I want to say a lot of the earliest content, even Link's model with brown hair and yellow band hat were evidence of this. Not to mention a lot of the enemy designs, when compared to their Zelda II counterparts, do have quite the similar look before being remodeled, textured, and completed to what we see in OoT.
Floor Master beta looks like a Yeti's hand or an Ice Cave enemy.
More like the Wall masters from the NES.
A question, was navi supposed to be in a Zelda game ?
There’s beta content about her ?
She was definitely planned for the game. There's plenty of footage of her in the beta. You can actually see her hovering over links head near the end of the video when Link is in front of that sunset.
The Obsessive Gamer thank you very much, I really appreciate your answer.
But why Nintendo make her so annoying?
@@leberpower2022 Hard to say but probably wasn't meant to be intentionally annoying.
A fucking arwing as an enemy..... Dope.
When i saw the 1995 mario 64 beta on the real nintendo channel it shocked me kinda but kinda scared me cause the beta of mario 64 is really creepy like the a.i making the game personalized
Well the whole personalized copy isn't real actually, but alot of the of the old 1995 build does have a creepier element to it I agree
The Obsessive Gamer ehh but i wonder... Did they remove the A.i??
@@Mickeyink idk
This man is like SwankyBox Jr.
I'll take that as a compliment I think lol Thanks!
Zols are cute. Ashamed Nintendo doesn’t care for Zols but maybe someday they could comeback in a 3D Zelda game
slime enemies first appeared in Z2
Yep
can you do luigi's mansion next? (the OG luigi's mansion for the gamecube)
It is the month of halloween... maybe later this month? Stay tuned :P
But serious answer, I already have one planned ::)
@@TheObsessiveGamer sweet, I’ll be looking forward to it :P
You should do sonic 2 /sonic 2 betas
That's something i'd like to tackle at some point actually :)
WHOO LEGEND OF ZELDA :OFT
Did ocarina of times leak have the unicorn fountain
Unfortunately not. So we are still stuck just a few screenshots. Hopefully one day in a Gigaleak 3
@UCq9w_OhPK-OE0yK4Gm07Dvg Nothing we heard or ever even saw in the beta concepts as far as we know. Who knows if it ever was intended to exist
I imagine that if you pulled up the master sword if the Temple of light existed you'd be warped there you as child link you would have to beat the dungeon become adult Link
I love the octarok
Yo, Dinolfos always Scared me
Ok i watched the video, i can vote now
☆☆☆☆☆
Much appreciated! Thank you!
golden knuckle
DO A BARREL ROLL
4:10 gangnam style
Beta stalkid really did skip face day
At least got around to it eventually for launch :P
Wasn't the r wing a myth?
Clearly not as we can see it here
@@TheObsessiveGamer But there's a red B button on the screen, that came out until the gamecube release of OoT, I recall they later remade the same video switching the buttons for credibility, and that the article saying the arwing was fake.
@@tafferchuck1349 The big red button is from the GameCube version of Ocarina of Time. The Arwing is found within the data of the game. I literally captured this footage myself by enabling from within the data, the Arwing to appear. I only use the GameCube version because it is easier to mess with, but this can be done on the original too.
Hell, literally pull out an N64 copy of the game, a gameshark, and find the code to activate the Arwing. It works.
Close your eyes and it's gene from Bob's burgers!
Now you get shitty steampunk robots
Hey
