Pre-release Content
From KanColle Kai Wiki
What's this? Did someone find a dump of an alpha/beta/pre-release copy of KanColle Kai?!
As the game went through development, many screenshots shown to the japanese press and gaming magazines may show content that never made it into the final release. Things such as Debug Menus, prototype UI layouts, completely different menu designs and possibly even different game play can go unnoticed by the casual person. However, some who are passionate about games can use their eagle-like eyes to detect screen shots that were in development or mockup stages.
This page shows some of the ones that have been found to show the game in a earlier or a prototype state.
Screenshots
| Image | What seems different about it? |
|---|---|
| Probably from a test or old build of the game. Sidebar and bottom bar look very different to the final. Hexagon and Fleet Icons look unprofessional. | |
| Same as above however this time it shows the sidebar. No "wheel" to the left of the menu. No english helper text under the kanji representing the menu option selected. | |
| Very different character information screen. Top bar starting to resemble the final design. No "art window" showing portrait of the character. Bottom bar shows available menu options. | |
| Some sort of Escort Fleet Menu? | |
| Still uses the old design, but shows the kanmusu in the fleet (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th). Also shows a new design for the fleet icons that change depending on the type of flag ship. Resource counts are at the bottom of the screen, rather than in the top bar as seen later in development. | |
| Probably an early incarnation of the Transport Ship menu, which allows you to gather resources from hexagons. | |
| UI starting to look very close to the final, without the glossy/metal appearance. Points icon is different (it's a gold P instead of papers and a pen in the final). | |
| Different "Select Battle Formation" Menu. | |
| Enemy HP Gauge lacks the background that gives it the proper look but demonstrates its purpose. | |
| Slightly different quest details screen? Still using the non-metallic UI design. | |
| Different Akashi's Arsenal improvement screen? Still using the non-metallic UI design. | |
| Pre-final card library menu? |
