Trophy_Bopopolis (non-loop ending) |
A proper ending for the Bopopolis DK Island Swing track, heard in the game's reveal trailer, is present in the file. Since the track is only ever looped indefinitely, it goes unused. |
Unused Code#
|
|
To do: |
Build Date#
The executable has a string value for a build timestamp under the !#$RetroBuildInfoStamp!#$??? entry but it was stubbed with useless padding.
PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD_PAD
Alternative Boss Sequences#
Big Top Bop#
The level has an flag named DebugEnabled, set to 0, setting it to 1 makes the boss perform an alternative sequence for testing.

Leftover E3 Demo Assets#
|
|
To do: |
A number of assets weren't removed from the final game.
Graphics#
The icon for 2-4 (Sawmill Thrill) in the level selection menu.
Internal Oddities#
Grape Juice Island#
The level package for the boss in Juicy Jungle, has _grapeJuiceIsland in the name for the world instead of _juice like the usual level naming structure. Most likely the file would've been named b00_juice_polarBash or that name would have been in the world directory and file name.
MP4 Compilation Dates#
The movies have dates for when they were compiled. The intro movie was compiled on Nov 2nd of 2013 at 2:05 PM. The outro movie was compiled on Oct 31st of 2013 at 2:35 PM.
Achievement Strings#
A strings file labeled "miiverse" seems to have strings for some kind of cut achievement system.

Internal Project Name#
|
|
This needs some investigation. |
The game's internal project name is "rs10", according to the rpx filename and a filepath in the rpx. "rs" presumably stands for "Retro Studios", suggesting that this is Retro Studio's 10th project. But it's not clear what constitutes a "project" in this case or how their other games fit into this numbering.

Revisional Differences#
The original release of the game had a glitch which had a rare chance of not unlocking 3-4: Scorch 'N' Torch after completing 3-3: Frantic Fields. On April 3, 2014, a patch labeled as Version 1.1.0 was released that fixed this glitch.
