Virtua Hamster — About this game
This early 32X prototype preserves a small part of the cancelled Virtua Hamster project. Chip is the only selectable character, and exploration takes place in a single empty tube environment containing static models. The available movement lets you inspect the connected space rather than play the planned rodent battles. Treat it as a glimpse of development: it does not contain the finished roster, hazards or complete competitive game.
