  RETROACTIVE NOTES:<br>1. This was voted as the top non affiliate project that was part of the 810nicle Day 2023 livestream. There was a consistent average of 330 viewership for this video. And of the 57 surveyed, 42 of you included it in your list of favorites. Thank you SO much for that support.<br><br>2. I started writing this before the speed running community for this game specifically exploded. So, I didn&apos;t have a chance to discuss it in this. That would be a fun topic to discuss in the future, however.<br><br>3. Somehow, an interview with someone who worked on this game existed, and I never stumbled on it in my research. Hexadecimal Mantis is another person who seriously needs a commend as well for their indirect help with this video. Reading that interview is on my radar to look into some time soon. <br><br>Thanks again for the support! There will be more to come, I promise!

  Fun fact with gali&apos;s level, you can defeat all 6 bohrok kal with a single nuva blast as soon as they shoot up out of the ground.

  Apparently the levels were supposed to be much longer and more complete, and each Toa would have 2, one for their Mata forms and one for Nuva forms. So it&apos;s safe to say a lot was cut lol.

  That explaining of killing rahi is basicly &quot;your dog is in a better place living in a farm in another state&quot;. I kinda wanna use &quot;teleport away from Makuta&apos;s influence &quot; from now on as explaining death lol

  This game was bad, but it was the first game I ever finished all the way through when I was 8. So it holds a special place in my heart.

  The sounds the Bohrok make in this game are especially horrifying when you learn much later on in the series that they are in fact transformed matoran and not just machines as initially assumed

  the easiest way to remember stone from earth is<br>earth has dirt, dirt is brown, therefore the brown toa isnt earth, its stone

  There&apos;s a YouTuber called Hexadecimal Mantis who, for the last 8 years, has been compiling and restoring cut content from this game. He&apos;s found cut music, sound effects, entire levels, sprites and the Toa Mata.<br><br>It&apos;s clear the content was cut extremely close to the deadline, since entire levels are still in the game files.

  Anyone notice that the eyepieces of the bohrok are all wonky?

  Even though it definitely is not at all, what we should have gotten.<br><br>It was 1 of 2 of my very first video games, that I got as a kid from my dad for my birthday and so it holds a special place in my heart regardless of its quality.
