Unused Graphics

	A special trademark symbol. The final game just spells out "TM" with the game's font.
	Half of a custom Tehkan logo. The first half was overwritten with other graphics.
	What's a tropical island without palm trees? It's Swimmer, that's what it is.
	Vertical logs. The final logs are horizontally aligned for maximum blockage.
