Fall Guy

About

Fall Guy is a racing and platform title designed for the ColecoVision that never saw a commercial release. Players control the show's main character as he navigates road sections and performs stunts based on the TV series from the early eighties. The game was scheduled for launch in February 1983 but remained unreleased due to development issues. It features single player action where you drive vehicles and jump over obstacles while trying to stay ahead of bad guys. This project stands out because it offers a rare glimpse into an unfinished product tied to a popular show. Very few details exist about the final state since the cartridge was never mass produced. Fans of retro gaming often discuss this title as one of the most intriguing lost games from the era. The concept of merging action stunts with racing on a system known for simpler games makes it a fascinating piece of history. Collectors and historians keep track of such prototypes to understand what could have been added to the console library if the release had happened.
