In the world of retro video games it is not uncommon for information about games that never saw physical release to come to light. Back in 2003 a video game company named 7th Sense Studios planned to bring both of Lee Falk's heroes to the digital screen. Although unreleased, we can now learn a little about what could have been.

I can understand why it was unreleased, the screenshots look like the game is little above SNES level in graphics.

Well we don't know what stage it was at before it was released. This may not be the final graphics, however it would be strange for a publisher to release them to a magazine/site if they weren't. Still, some graphics look much better in motion than in still images. The GBA as 32-bit so it had some power under its hood. Still, most games were 2D-sprite based due to the small screen.
