Sub-Pages#
General#
- The demo begins and ends in Zanydu.
- Drew and Flux have unique dialogue referencing the demo's objectives and the $5 rebate for those who received the demo.
- Drew starts with three items: a plunger, a red herring, and one stick of Marge's butter.
- A few puzzle solutions were changed so that they may be entirely completed in Zanydu.
- Some dialogue was chopped up into separate files for the final release of the game, presumably for timing.
- Most of the items used in the retail version of the game can be found inside the game's files.
- There's a leftover video of the mouse dancing in the tavern (retail filename: 406M.SMK) in place of the scene where Nefarious is working on his ship (207M.SMK), likely for space.

HUGHPORT vs. OUTGUARD#
|
Demo |
Final |
|---|---|
|
|
Instead of the Toilet Sentry, there is a portrait of King Hugh on the wall of WACME customers. He's holding the unused WACME Safe and Insane™ item, and probably its combination.
Some dithering and the color of the wall was also changed.
KNIFE#
Like the final game, there's an image of the unused Cutopian Army Knife item in the game's files.

OUTHSDBL#

Demo |
Final |
|---|---|
|
|
The instructions for fish-flushing are more straight-forward about getting the sole fish. In the retail version, the puffer fish is (misleadingly) the best prize.
