Baby's Day Out

About

Baby's Day Out is a platformer you play as an angel for the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis versions that never saw the light of day. Your main job involves steering the baby toward the finish line while dodging robbers who want to snatch him. The developer behind this project, Designer Software, also worked on another unreleased title based on the movie Beethoven around the same time. You navigate levels filled with hazards and enemies in a single player session that stays true to the film's premise without releasing commercially. This game stands out mostly because it is one of those rare lost treasures from the SNES and Genesis era. There are no community ratings or sales figures since Hi-Tech Expressions never pushed it past development. Fans of obscure gaming history often dig up screenshots and clips to see how close the final product came to matching the movie. It remains a curious piece of software where you guide a child without the usual pressure of commercial release data backing it up.
