Eventually Blue Sunset Games overtook the project in 2018 while keeping the artist's involvement and as of this edit ''Skinny & Franko: Fists of Vengeance'' remains in development. It did at least recently get [[https://store.steampowered.com/app/2114970/Skinny__Franko_Fists_of_Violence/ an alpha demo on Steam]] out.

Added an example. Getting Crap Past The Radar is not trivia (and probably wouldn't fit on the main page either, considering that trope's new rules or whatever). Fixed Example Indentation.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Hard to believe Franko somehow used to be even ''raunchier'' during the development but as much [[{{Bowdlerise}} as the publisher tried to cut some obscenities]], the developers were able to sneak past some things nonetheless, including one of the second boss's taunts, and the exhibitionists.
** Of special note is the scene with Franko defeating the first boss, which has Franko [[PottyHumor piss on the opponent]]. Mirage wanted that scene to be cut, and while the developers were about to do it, they've implemented a cheat code that would restore said sequence..... and made the aforementioned cheat mode enabled by default just before submitting the game.

*StartMyOwn: Mariusz Pawluk - the game's artist and primary idea man - was a big enthusiast for beat 'em ups and wanted to do one for the Amiga after how a number of [[PortingDisaster not very well made ports of contemporary games]] left him cold.
*TheShelfOfMovieLanguishment: Development on the game was started in 1992 and actually mostly completed later that year, but it took World Software 2 years to find a publisher. They were polishing the game in meantime.
