The game was revealed in an article by Eurogamer detailing Argonaut Games' involvement in the development of Star Fox where the game was described as a 3D platformer and left unnamed, while a message board post by an Argonaut employee named the game "Yoshi Racing" and described it as a character racing game. Following their successful collaboration with Nintendo on Star Fox, British game developer Argonaut Games pitched a 3D game starring Yoshi and made a prototype for it.

Following this setback, Argonaut decided to retool the prototype as an original IP, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos.
