This is a list of beta elements of the game Yoshi's Story.
Early ideas
The game's working title was Yoshi's Island 64. The early logo looks similar to the SNES game Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island logo, implying that Yoshi's Story was originally planned as a sequel to said game.
Early builds
As seen in early footage and screenshots, there was originally going to be a playable Brown Yoshi and Purple Yoshi.[1] Flowers were set to appear in the game, but didn't make it to the final version. Large Shy Guys resembling Fat Guys were going to appear[2] and Bone Dragons were to be purple, flesh-covered dragons rather than bony, undead ones. They also looked less sinister. Also it appears that these flesh-covered dragons would have appeared in a more vibrant looking cave rather than the dark one seen in the final game.
Stage 4-2: The Jungle Puddle was known to be much more menacing, with large bubbles and a Bone Dragon. Jungle Hut also looked different than the final version. Yoshi was also going to use the same noises he did in Super Mario World, but for some reason, it was removed.Template:Refneeded
