Over 10 years ago game studio, Steel Minions worked on a proposed a third installment in the Zool series. It was to be called Zool Planets and never picked up.

No idea how many people here are familiar with Zool but it was an especially charming platformer for early PC gaming. I think it's more remembered on the consoles from the time but the best versions were on PC (Amiga CD32 for Zool 1, either Jaguar or CD32 for Zool 2, i gotta write a comparison of those).

Imo, I'm glad it didn't get picked up. Graphics aside I really don't like the concept of old man Zool. Just looks dumb. Zool Redimensioned proved that concept can stay in 2D and still be 'modern'. They really should just make a 3rd game in that style. Have it conclude the Zool's fight against Krool.

(though it looks like we're not getting a Zool Redimensioned 2 either)
