Spider Texture#
A video of 0.26 SURVIVAL TEST was uploaded on October 23, 2009, shortly before the version's release on October 24, 2009. The video shows an alternate spider texture where they were colored brown instead of the usual black with red eyes. It was changed after a TIGSource forums user named Xion suggested to change the colors of the Spider.

Arrow Counter#
The video also shows an arrow counter, which were later replaced with bows on January 22, 2010, on Indev Version 0.31. The player didn't need to shoot arrows with bows, before the release of it. However, arrows still had to be collected to shoot.

In this version, Creepers are much darker than usual. Creepers were once meant to explode and make a 4x4x4 crater after being slain. This was changed on January 22, 2010, on Indev Version 0.31, where Creepers stop moving within 3 blocks of a player, hiss, then explode. This mechanic is still present to this day.
