As many Nintendo fans from the N64 era already know, the foul-mouthed and filthy Conker’s Bad Fur Day<\/a><\/strong> began life as a cutesy platformer before changing lanes and becoming an over-18-only affair full of innuendo, naughty words and wee.<\/p>\n

Plenty of titbits related the game have come to light over the years and Chris Seavor – designer on the N64 game and voice of Conker himself – has even discussed the cancelled sequel<\/a>. Recently, responding to a question via Twitter<\/a>, Senior Software Engineer Chris Marlow<\/a> gave us a little more context regarding the game’s transition from twee platformer Twelve Tales to the foul-mouthed Fur Day we know and love.<\/p>\n

Marlow worked as a programmer on the game (as well as providing the dulcet tones of The Great Mighty Poo) and in the video discusses a trip to E3 following two-and-a-half years work on Twelve Tales where the team realised on the show floor that their game would get lost in the crowd of colourful 3D platformers.
