The enemies in the first beta level were different as seen in this preview video of a sample Demon’s Crest demo for retailers. The color is a bit darker but it could be because of the magazine. In the screenshot the earth gargoyle has a slightly different sprite. Thanks to Casey Strange we were able to note some minor beta differences in the some screens published in old magazines. As we can read on Wikipedia, this is the 3° game starring Firebrand (an enemy character from the Ghosts ‘n Goblins series), following Gargoyle’s Quest and Gargoyle’s Quest II. Ouch.Demon’s Crest is a 2D action game developed by Capcom and originally published in 1994 for the Super Nintendo. That means, in the course of one week, there were more people who returned the game to get their money back than there were others who actually purchased and kept it. Maybe parents took offense to the creepy demonic art on its box? Maybe the game was too tough for players to handle? Who knows why, but Demon's Crest somehow managed to earn an interesting distinction among the entire SNES library – it became the only Super Nintendo title in history to actual register negative sales at one point. But because, for whatever reason, it bombed in sales. Not because it was a bad game – we wouldn't be honoring it if it were. This one, unfortunately, didn't do that well. After that memorable supporting role, someone at Capcom saw something more for the flying demon and decided to give him his own series – including Gargoyle's Quest on the Game Boy, Gargoyle's Quest II on the NES and this game, their 16-bit sequel Demon's Crest.
