Receiving a distress call from Krazoa Palace, Krystal discovers that it was attacked by General Scales and the SharpClaw army. Krystal is persuaded by a wounded EarthWalker in the Palace to collect the Krazoa Spirits and return them to the palace, which would supposedly tilt the war in the dinosaurs' favour and stop Scales. After releasing the first one, however, a mysterious being sends Krystal into the spirit's path, trapping her in a floating crystal atop the palace until all the spirits can be returned.Meanwhile, on the edge of the Lylat System, General Pepper contacts the Star Fox Team, asking them to investigate the invasion of the Dinosaur Planet.

Since the team are desperate for money and maintenance, team leader Fox McCloud agrees to take a look, arriving unarmed at Pepper's request to avoid trouble with the locals. On the planet's surface, Fox obtains and wields the magic staff which Krystal lost earlier. Fox learns from the Queen of the EarthWalker Tribe that Scales stole four Spellstones from the planet's two Force Point Temples.

Resolving to prevent the planet from breaking up further and restore it to its original unity, Fox traverses the planet and retrieves the stones to the temples, with the help of the Queen's son, Prince Tricky. As Fox retrieves the stones, he discovers that he must also retrieve the other five Krazoa Spirits to repair the planet and save Krystal. When Fox finds the last spirit, he discovers that it is guarded by Scales himself. However, just as Fox and Scales engage in combat, a mysterious voice orders Scales to surrender the spirit, to which he reluctantly agrees.

Afterwards, Falco rejoins the Star Fox team and Krystal is recruited into the team beginning a romance with her and Fox.Development. Dinosaur Planet artwork showing various characters, including Krystal's original designWhat would become Star Fox Adventures was initially developed by Rare as Dinosaur Planet, a game unrelated to the Star Fox series. According to lead software engineer Phil Tossell, development of Dinosaur Planet began after the release of, with two teams to work on the latter title and towards the end of the Nintendo 64's lifespan. The game was changed many times during early development before Rare settled on the eventual idea of a adventure-game based around two interwoven stories. The plot concerned Sabre (whose role was given to Fox) and Krystal, along with sidekicks Tricky and Kyte (who both appear in the finished game), and Randorn, a who was Sabre's father and Krystal's adoptive father (who was dropped entirely).

The game featured elements such as the 'SwapStone', which would let the player switch between Krystal and Sabre. Dinosaur Planet was intended to be Rare's last game for the Nintendo 64 and was adorned with gameplay and cinematics introduced. Dinosaur Planet initially utilised the Nintendo 64's and was housed in a 512- (64 ) cartridge, which would have placed it among the largest Nintendo 64 games by stored data.mentioned in a retrospective interview that, after reviewing content of Dinosaur Planet, the similarities of Rare's design of Sabre to Nintendo's design were striking.

The title was later changed to be a Star Fox-brand for the Nintendo GameCube. According to Tossell, the sudden change was not 'accepted willingly by all' of the team as the plot had to be entirely re-written in places to accommodate the Star Fox canon. The updated title was originally named Star Fox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet, but 'Dinosaur Planet' was later removed. The team later realised the potential of using the Star Fox licence in hopes of boosting awareness, and decided to switch development from the Nintendo 64 to the then-upcoming console.

Before the change, Rare released downloadable, limited full-length from the unreleased game—many of which did appear in Star Fox Adventures—to video game websites, along with numerous trailers and screenshots of gameplay. We were slightly disappointed at having to change Dinosaur Planet as we had all become so attached to it, but we could also see the potential of using the Star Fox licence.Phil Tossell in an interview with NintendoLifeWith the Star Fox theme established, Rare begun re-working the game for the then-upcoming GameCube and was subsequently met with little interference from Nintendo. During development, the team was invited to Nintendo's headquarters in to discuss progress and certain changes; in return Star Fox creator came to stay at Rare's studio to oversee development. Tossell stated that 'without a doubt', Nintendo strengthened their relationship through trust and respect, despite Nintendo only having a 49% stake of the company at the time.The game was Rare's final console video game released under Nintendo before the Leicestershire-based studio was sold and became a first-party developer for Microsoft.

Shortly after the game's release, Microsoft purchased Rare for £375 million, thus ending most of Rare's association with Nintendo; Rare did, however, still develop games for the. Many fans and critics do not consider Star Fox Adventures to be an 'essential' Rare title, as the negativity was attributed to Microsoft's takeover, which led to some fans speculating that Microsoft were 'buying out competition'.David Wise used Peter Siedleczek's Advanced Orchestra library in creating the music for Star Fox Adventures. Wise said the tracks that referenced the music for the previous Star Fox games came very late into development, which was after the developers changed Dinosaur Planet into Star Fox Adventures.

Wrote that the 'visual splendour is immense', whilst in a similar fashion Matt Casamassina of noted that the game is a 'perfect companion' to The Legend of Zelda series, to which Adventures is often compared.

Casamassina noted that elements of its graphical rendering were sophisticated for its time, in particular the advanced real-time rendering of the movement of the characters' fur. Praised the game's vibrant atmosphere and detailed textures, adding that Adventures had 'the best real time graphics on the GameCube so far'.

The game's combat system garnered some accolades, with adding that the combat is simplistic, despite being 'good looking' and not 'frustrating'.

NGC Magazine similarly praised the use of the combat system, however they noted that the battles did not require any skill and eventually 'felt like a dull chore'.

The was viewed negatively, with Casamassina remarking that it is 'over the top' in some places. NGC Magazine felt that the accents of most of the characters did not suit that of the Star Fox world, in particular they noted the use of a Scottish accent for the Warpstone Master was 'awful'.Despite the mostly positive reviews, Star Fox Adventures is often criticised for its setting being too much of a departure from the other Star Fox games. Casamassina said that 'Fans expecting a true Star Fox experience akin to the older games are in for a disappointment'. He also added that the Star Fox license has been utilised sparingly to the point where the game felt 'out of place within the confines of the Star Fox game universe'. Casamassina asserted that Fox was 'clearly only on 'Dinosaur Planet' at Nintendo's request, not because he belongs'.

NGC Magazine similarly expressed concern on why Fox was added to the game, adding that Adventures was 'one game Fox himself would probably want to forget' and further speculating that Nintendo only added the Star Fox license to prevent Dinosaur Planet from appearing on the Xbox.
