Still incomplete:

-- In World 3, Zeph is used as a placeholder for the Mesa Town villagers

Filename Oddities#
Hollow Champions#
Hollow Champions are internally referred to as Hollow Knights.
This was changed due to the developer worrying that people would associate the enemy as a reference from the game of the same name.
Neo Smilby#
A lot of Neo Smilby's files are simply titled "Smilby", this is due to the "Neo" name originally being used for when the developer imported new files, but they grew attached to the name, and so Smilby got the Neo prefix.
