The same was also true for overseas magazines, which incorrectly referred to the game as "Hanasaki Gassen" and Blue Planet Software's own Tony Caton also seems to have copied this mistake.

Hanasaki Gassen (also known as Flower Blooming Competition, Hanasaki Kassen, Hanasaki Gassen, Hanasagi Gaassen) is a cancelled game for Game Boy Advance.

Announcement

Hanasaki Kassen was announced in various Japanese magazines between late 2000 and 2002, such as the Japanese 64 Dream, Nintendo Dream, Weekly Famitsu, Dengeki Nintendo 64 though it was restricted to lists and there was no real information other than it was a planned Nintendo game for Game Boy Advance. The same was also true for overseas magazines, referring to the game as both "Flower Blooming Competition" and "Hanasaki Gassen".

Gameplay

Hanasaki Gassen was a real-time strategy game possibly involving flowers. The game involved a complex AI system that would simulate annealing (possibly the term describing recombination of DNA).[1][2][3][4]

Development

Blue Planet Software were developing this game in C++, but the game never surfaced.

It may be worth stressing that this game was also being developed at a time period close to another cancelled online real-time strategy game by Blue Planet Software known as Genesis (two videos of Genesis originally from Blue Planet Software's website were backed up: [1], [2]), themed in outer space. The player would assume the role of a team member of an advanced alien race, and gameplay was about planting "seeds" and taking over solar systems one moon at a time. Players would compete with each other with the same goal in mind. However, the game may be unrelated to Genesis.[5]

Notes

"Gassen" is taken from "合戦" (kassen), meaning "battle or engagement" but the form of some Japanese nouns change when appearing after to a different word (the same case as "hako"/"bako" in Kirby no Omochabako).
