In the early 1980s, 20th Century Fox's game division planned to release a trio of environmentalist games designed by Steve Beck - Save the Whales, Dutch Elm Defender, and Attack of the Baby Seals - to raise money for various charities and organizations. None of them were released, and Save the Whales is both the only one with a known attached charity (Greenpeace) and the only one that ever entered development.
