Okay folks, I have some interesting updates on the elusive 'Greed Island'. For those not in the know, 'Greed Island' is this supposedly lost MMORPG from the late '90s that was based on the anime 'Hunter X Hunter'. Rumour has it that only a handful of copies were made.
After months of deep diving, I've found evidence of its existence through a custom server response printout I found in an old web archive! However, it doesn't confirm 'Greed Island' ever got past alpha development.
The printout does reveal some game mechanics though. Apparently, players were to have some sort of physical constraint - a heart rate monitor, maybe? - that would affect in-game stamina. This is just speculation, of course. This case just got a lot more fascinating. Will keep ya'll posted.

This discovery might give 'Greed Island' a place on lost media maps. Having a physical constraint affecting in-game stamina sounds too innovative to be true, but if it is, they were seriously pushing the boundaries! Keeping an eye out for more info on this one.

Big fan of 'Hunter X Hunter' and MMORPGs here. I've heard of 'Greed Island' before but never gave it much thought. I'm really intrigued now. I can't believe they were planning such an ambitious mechanic in the '90s! Could've easily been ahead of its time!
