The earliest version of T'ai Fu (PS1) yet discovered was traded into RetroTaku Videogames! We got to dump & preserve it. The disc contains significant differences compared to the final retail release.

You don't need to give me a shoutout just for stopping by on a stream. When I get settled send me some tapes & I'll run them through VHS decode. Then you can thank me!

Miss your vids, Kenny. Hope you take care =]
This game is clearly the template that was later used for Kung-Fu Panda. 😏
Notice how the characters, including Tai itself, were already pretty final. That shows clearly where their priority was, and this makes sense in the context of being a game from an animation company! Thanks for the video!
While I couldn't find a direct connection between T'ai Fu & Kung Fu Panda, several people who worked on this game would later work on some of Activision's tie-in Kung Fu Panda games. This was also an early voice acting role for John DiMaggio (Futurama, Adventure Time, Gears of War), he played the title character. He unsurprisingly later played several Kung Fu Panda characters.
I miss DreamWorks Interactive.😢

Well the company is DiCE LA
love everytime you guys upload. you guys have that authentic old school youtube feel in the best way possible.
That last part where you said you hope Tony doesnt edit this out made me laugh 😂
I feel like I remember playing this as a kid on a PlayStation many years ago.
I love this game. Childhood favourite
I just noticed the Pippa Shirt your friend wore in the video lol
Yo! I love your content. I'd love to see some early builds of Mario games! However, I know that you've only got so much content to show off regarding Nintendo. But I appreciate your work, and look forward to what you show off. Thank you
Nice a new video with my favorites youtubers John and Tony! The game than John played 2 times because he played the worng version at first haha! but i love John stream and yours too Tony.
I remembering coming home from Kindergarten and playing tf out of this game!
I didn't know that this game existed, but I would check it out someday. Also, nice Pipkin Pippa shirt.😆
Dreamworks made Shrek, Bee Movie, and T'ai Fu?!
Oh wow - I remember in I think 1998 in the UK this game was featured on a bus tour for the Playstation - I got to go but the Playstation that was running this game was constantly being hogged. Then I sort of forgot about it and never found a copy once I eventually got over my sega fangirling to get a PSOne. I remember the promo art looked really cool tho
I wanna see all the handheld stuff!
This game was amazing in my childhood.
Shame people see this as just a beginning start of Kung Fu Panda, I wish everyone would see it as also it's own thing.

Give it a try and let us know! 🙂
T'ai Fu always felt like it was just a couple of gameplay mechanics away from greatness. Weird to think it could have been even more janky without that final polish.

It seems like they wanted a bit more from it, but just couldn't do it due to constraints. Kinda unfortunate. Overall I liked it, even though I tend to get a bit desensitized when playing beat-em-ups.
where yo you guys stream from?
Where do you post the prototypes you find
