Clockwork Aquario was the last arcade game ever developed by the legendary Westone Bit Entertainment in 1992, but was never finished. The game was thought to be lost in time, but Strictly Limited Games set out on the mission to dig deep into video game archeology and save Clockwork Aquario from being lost in time.
Beautiful pixel art and vibrant colors with three unique characters: Huck Londo, the daring ghost hunter, Elle Moon, the brave adventuress and Gush, the warmhearted giant robot.

30 years late, literally.
This is a nice arcade platfomer in its own right, but what makes Clockwork Aquario really interesting is the story behinf it. It was cancelled in 1992 when it was almost ready to release and the code got archived. Now, almost three decades later. The old developers helped unearth it and launch it on PS4 and Switch.

About the game, is a fine game for early 90s standarts. I had a lot of fun trying to finish it without continues (that takes around 25 minutes). It has a few nice extras too.
