Game Freak
In the proposed sequel, the player would take control of one of six different playable characters, each with a unique special ability. The game would have also featured an updated engine allowing for larger gameplay and enemy variety. Despite the cancellation, "Smart Ball" was not the last Game Freak game to be published by Sony. The last Game Freak game published by Sony was "Click Medic" for PlayStation, which was published in 1999.
