This page details development materials of BFDIA 5b.
The source code for BFDIA 5b was released on July 4th, 2022 by Cary Huang in a Github repository. This contains all the source assets for the game, with some unused content.
Unused Graphics#
An image of Book standing with her hands on her hips and with cheeked eyes. This is oddly named "book walk", despite there being no walking.
An early version of Ice Cube's idle pose.
An early version of Ruby's idle pose.
An image of Match sitting. This is oddly named "mathc talking".

An unused space background named "epicwallpaperexploredia.jpg". It was used in a now unlisted video showing off an update for the game.
Unused Animations#
An early walking animation for Book, which has walking legs instead of running legs, no arm movement, and the face being different. The animation also doesn't loop properly.
An early walking animation for Ice Cube, which uses her isometric body instead of the side version, uses walking legs, and doesn't loop properly.
An early walking animation for Ruby. This animation also doesn't loop properly.

An early walking animation for Pencil without a face. Does not loop properly.
Unused Audio#
An unused sound of someone saying aaaght (ow) named "ow.wav". This may have been planned to be used when a character dies. This audio comes from Htwins hidden swf, named LOSG when the player gets hit by a ant.
Internal Name#
The name of the fla file is "FSELA". This likely stands for FreeSmart's Evil Leafy Adventure.
Facts#
Fact 1: There's (what the editor assumes) a visual character switching feature that was left unused for unknown reasons.
Fact 2: Book's asset is named by her debut name (Dictionary) and Ruby's asset is named "Diamond". The reason why Book's asset is named by her debut name and Ruby's asset is named "Diamond" is because their assets were recycled from the BFDI 17 FLAs. This confirmed with Book's asset due to their modify dates being the same in both FLAs. (4/16/2011 6:57:20 PM) And Ruby's asset is confirmed with their names being the same in both FLAs. (Though her asset in 5b was modified to look like how she does in BFDIA.)
Fact 3: The cliff asset from BFDIA 1 and BFDIA 5a can be found.
Fact 4: Waffle and Lego Brick were supposed to be playable at some point. The reason this is a fact is because they both have bobbing animations. And they are fully playable by modifying the "levels.txt" file.
