Unused Graphics#

Early App Icon#

Early	Used

An unused app icon located in resources.assets, which uses part of the game's poster art.

Early Screen Selector Splash#

Early	Used	Steam Store

An early screen selector splash image located in resources.assets, featuring a slightly different logo (without the dot after Dr) and a background image of Wildlife Preparation, rather than the vault. The 'header' image used on the game's Steam Store page does use a screenshot of Wildlife Preparation, though a different one from the early screen selector image.

Unused Glitch Images#

Only three out of the eight 'glitch' images in the game's files are used. Most of the images are stored in sharedassets2.assets, but 2, 4, and 7 are located in resources.assets.

Early Game Poster#

Early	Used

An earlier version of the game's poster. The following differences are present between the early poster and the final one:

• A dot was added after Dr in the game's title.
• The logo of Crows Crows Crows was updated.
• 'Keith Carberry' was replaced with 'Simon Amstell'.
• The poster was made 'cleaner'; a particular overlay on the texture was removed.

"Unknown" Sign#

Early	Used

Alongside the (used) signs for the 'secondary interruptive' and 'lasers' switches in Lighting is an unused sign for the 'unknown' switch. A post-it note is used instead.

Work-In-Progress Elevator Stencil#

Early	Used

The texture has 'wip' in its name, indicating that it almost certainly was never going to be used.

Cassette Labels#

All of the cassette tapes, which are voiced by Justin Roiland, have "JUSTIN R. AUDITION" written on the bottom side of them, which is not viewable in-game.

Unused Signs#

These three signs can be seen in the game's trailer, but not in the final game.

'Kill' Button#

A button with the word "KILL" written on it.

Painting#

A painting depicting ships sinking.

William's Secret#

This texture can be found in sharedassets2.assets, and is a reference to an easter egg in The Stanley Parable, also placed there by William Pugh, with the same text.

Rob#

Unused Fonts#

There are eight unused fonts in resources.assets and sharedassets0.assets, stored as SDF font atlases.
