Experiment World

This page details one or more prototype versions of Experiment World.

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Check for more differences. Maybe also look into the other two builds (dated October 22 and November 5, 2008).

To do: A few unused sound effects which appear to be leftovers from anothe game. Upload them.

This prototype is documented on Hidden Palace.

The earliest known prototype of the game, dated October 17, 2008 and labeled as 0.1.346 (for comparison, the April 11, 2009 build documented on the main page is labeled as being 0.1.435).
