Looks cool, but also completely unfamiliar to me.

Looks like the unrelease PC Cocoran.  There've been a few threads about it.  Supposedly a prototype was found and then hoarded by some asshole.  So all we get are some screen shots.

I also have a few mags with teaser pics/previews.  I will have a flick through these and will do some scanning if I get chance tomorrow.

Yes it's PC Cocoron
SamIAm covers it a bit in this post translating PC Engine Fan Magazine August 1993

The ironic thing is that the Sega CD also got a finished Cocoran game, which was cancelled as well. Same series, different game.

suckd that it was never officially released. it looks like a fun platformer.  should have been released at least on the sega cd since the sega cd library was shit compared to pcengine library

When should we tell folks that I would like to organize a "liberation party" to free the PCE prototype from a collector?

Hmmmm...
