Vanishing Gungaroo | |
Gungaroo is a bounty hunter who has holed up in an underground tunnel system converted for heavy weapons storage. His Reploid brain was only programmed with the intellect of a child, so he feels most comfortable cradled in the cockpit of his humongous kangaroo Ride Armor, like it's a mother's pouch. His comrades are glad to have him around, but they try to stay out of his way. |
Behind the Scenes
Developer Commentary
- "We put boxing gloves, shoes, and headgear on a baby wearing a diaper. Of course, he's all pink, reminiscent of X3's Kangaroo Ride Armor. In the cockpit of the Kangaroo Ride, there is a sprite that shows "X Locked On" secretly placed on its console. Unfortunately, I don't think you'll be able to see it during the game." - (Concept Art Room)[3]
