Description
A piece of conceptual artwork showing the whole cast of characters for KazooaWare. The game were going to be based on the first title in the WarioWare series, revisiting the settings of that game.

Kazooa the Seagull was going to be like how Wario usually is (greedy and all that). Frankie the Weasel (from Conker’s Bad Fur Day) was to be based on Jimmy T., rocking out at disco clubs and such, and his games would also revolve around sports. Crowiolina was to be like Mona, and her games would be quite weird in nature. Project 67 and Dummy’s set of microgames would be similar to Dribble and Spitz.

Tailyna and Applelin (called “Cherri” in the pic becuase the original name was still in use by then) were to be based on Kat and Ana, and their microgames would have been nature-based. For some reason they were later replaced with Lucy and Jasmine from the Lazy Lucy series, and their theme would have been “Lazy”(to what I can remember writing among the game’s text strings). Comparing this drawing with the characters that evenutally ended up making it into the early protoypes for KazooaWare, I now think the former duo (Tailyna and Applein) should have been kept alongside the newly added characters.

Kid Conker would have been based on 9-Volt, and his games would have been based on ones made by Rare(similar to how 9-Volt’s games are based on Nintendo games). I was at one point considering replacing the character with someone else, but was unable to come up with anything good before the project was put on hold anyway.

Dr. Stock is basically a Wood-Stock, with a few changes to make him look a bit like Dr. Crygor, and like Dr. Crygor his games would be based around science.

Weirdo, the last character of the entire cast, now redesigned to look a bit like Orbulon. His games would have been IQ-based. He even has his own little spaceship as seen in the above pic.
