The Shadow the Hedgehog Beta

The production of Shadow the Hedgehog was worse than the game itself. People at Sonic Team were working their asses off to create a good game for the glorified Sonic recolor. The beta for Shadow the Hedgehog was WAY different than the original.

The original work in progress name was "Shadow's Rainbow Adventure" but they scrapped the name because they figured that MLP:FiM won't come out until at least 7 more years. They brought the first alpha to Sega and they responded, "EDGE the character is always about the EDGE, you can't have hEDGEhog without the EDGE".

So the dumbfucks at Sonic Team replace Shadow's "Lili Poopy Flower Stick" with a sword. It took those ass monkeys 12 months of insomnia and hunger too model that stupid sword. They left the rest of the game untouched. They sent the v.0.2 and the response was an angrier, " EDGE! Do you dumbfucks know what EDGE is?! We want the character to have RED on his gloves".

"OF COURSE" exclaimed Sonic Team, "It's all so obvious now". So they went and modeled ketchup on Shadow gloves. This took them another year to concept art, model, render, and fix that stupid tiny ketchup stain in Shadow's glove.

Sega was now PISSED, like, holy shit. You could taste the salt coming from the Meeting room. "FUCKING EDGE, YOU IDIOTIC CHILDREN! HERE'S A URBAN DIC DEFINITION FOR YOU ASSWIPES. EDGE ADJECTIVE. USED TO DESCRIBE SOMETHING THAT IS COOL, OR CUTTING EDGE."

Sega, those mfers, made everyone at Sega Team to commit Harakiri and hired angsty teenagers to work on the game. "If you don't bring in a beta with EDGE you're all FIRED!" the new staff were like, "Ugh, fiiiine. You better give us Hot Topic clothing for this".

They made the Beta in a day. The game depicted Shadow killing innocent humans, the only obstacle were guards and military officers. There was no homing attack or chaos control, not even any platforming. It was a shooter game with disgustingly cruel finisher blows with bloodcurdling screams, swearing, and real to life gore. In fact, you could say that the gore had blood, and this blood was like no ordinary digitized blood. You can say that this blood was... HYPER REALISTIC OMFG WORD OF TEH DAY WOOWIEZOWIE.

Erhum... anyways, the game was pretty edgy. The people at Sega were hi-fiving and masturbating to the snuff game. Until Naoto Ohshima, creator of Sonic the Hedgehog, went and kick the asses of everyone who worked on the game, even the poor janitor who died of butt cancer for taking the massive beating (RIP Janitor, 1950-2006). Naoto Ohshima was all like, "Idiot, if you don't make this game E for everyone I will smack you with a dead hedgehog" The game ended up getting rated E10 so they only received half the dead hedgehog.

No one knows what happened to the beta, although rumor has it that a videogame company bought the beta for 10 bucks and the game had a huge controversy. It was taken off from the Steam Greenlight but it was brought back with the power of Gaben. Hopefully, you can create a theory on what game this is, furthering the fame of this creepypasta and making me practically e-famous.

Note: The beta for Shadow the Hedgehog was actually really edgy. It had more swearing and violence but Sega wanted an E rating. I just exaggerated everything because this is a story on the internet. If you take this as fact you are a huge dumbass.
