Cosmonious High

Careful, you'll lose an eye.

This page or section needs more images.
There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough pictures. Please fix this.

Cosmonious High is the most complex and technical game Owlchemy Labs has created, along with breaking from prior tradition by filling the game with aliens instead of filling it with robots.

To do:
LOTS of weasel words in there. Might need to fix this for grammatical reasons.

Unused Graphics#

A crudely-drawn Cosmo Comet Cookie stomping around the city. May have been an artist's joke.

Sun's Molten Core Premium Spicium Snack#

A snack version of the Molten Core Premium Spicium hot sauce. The text on the left, if reversed, says:

It's Spicy as heck
Will probably be banned
Might get you a detention

Flan Feelings Icons#

Inside each emotion's respective textures, there is an early version of their icon. Weirdly enough, they don't have any icons in-game, which makes these unused.

Vacation Simulator Backpack#

A slightly recolored version of the Vacation Simulator backpack, possibly used as a placeholder during this game's development.

A somewhat re-textured version, seemingly with the ability to add pins on the backpack.

Blackboard Graphics#

A chunk of the blackboard drawings are still in the files. These were used in an early prototype. One of them has a frog-like hand which was shown in the "Handy Dandy Dev" blog.

Early Screenshots#

Present in resources.assets.

"Okay" Cookiemoji#

The only Cookiemoji that never made in the game was an "Okay" Cookiemoji. This could have made the characters' personality changed to a normal one, which seems pretty useless since most of the characters act normal when idle.

Unused Voicelines#

Voiceline files that are labelled as "CUT" means that a certain feature or change got scrapped, making the voicelines useless or unused.

Notes

"What are you doing back there? We cannot art the hallways!"

Intercom

Spraying paint at the Intercom just makes them gargle and glitch out.

"Hmmm, a pun... Did Fren make these pedestals?"

Gleg

Oog says this line in the final game.

You can pick up a different backpack and some swag right there! Or, if your ready, head to the space bus.

uncertain

Placeholder intro audio, perhaps?

Old Student Name#

To do:
Get the rest of these

Scattered throughout the files are remnants of an old Prismi name, being called "Varian". Only textures and some strings remain of this name.

"Banner_WelcomeVarian". It got later changed to a purple version saying "Greetings New Kid!" Surprisingly, the texture got reused, removing the Prismi and changing the banner to say "Under New Managment".

Strings#

Here are a bunch of characters still using this line. A bunch of these are weirdly cut off.

Easy, Varian. I can only be so exhuberant in one day.

Whoa! You must be the new Varian student! Welcome to

"Chatter_Oog_Varian"

Good morning, Varian! Cosmonius High has experienc

Mm. Unnecessary, Fren. Varian. Time to adapt.

Hope Varian adaptation useful...

"Chatter_Fren_Varian"

Whew! Intense start to the morning. You're the Varian

Hmm... Keen to see more Varian powers. Perhaps

Varian, would you mind helping me It can go up just

Sup Varian! Nice hand!

Personal space, Varian!

Good to see you, Varian.

Varian, can I have a little space

Fluid generated by Varian or... Hmm, no...

Hey! Varian I was using that.

Welcome, Varian.
