Loadstar II: Showdown on Phobos is a science-fiction action game for the Mega / Sega CD, that was in development in 1995 by Rocket Science Games, but then cancelled for some reasons. As Tim Stoddard has commented “chances are that this was cancelled because Rocket Science Games decided to move away from the FMV game genre (their reason for scrapping Wing Nuts) and since the system was almost dead in late 1995”. Loadstar II would have became the sequel of Loadstar: The Legend of Tully Bodine, released in America in 1994.
Thanks to Celine for the contribution!

Being a Mega CD collector and expert, chances are that this was cancelled because Rocket Science Games decided to move away from the FMV game genre (there reason for scrapping Wing Nuts) and since the system was almost dead in late 1995.
Thanks for the info Tim! :) I’m going to update the description
another reason is that in 1994, Sega has partially bought Rocket Science then canceled half of its games for economical reasons.
I was checking some old CD’s that come with a Spanish videogame magazine called “Micromania” and there is a video of future projects for 96 and beyond of Rocket Science Games and in that video along with some clips of Obsidian there is footage from a game that I think is Loadstar II. I uploaded it on YouTube (sorry there is no audio).
