Psychonauts

Psychonauts is an underselling game about a psychic boy that infiltrates a psychic summer camp. Using several kinds of psychic powers, Razputin must try to stop the children's brains from being stolen. In his adventure, he'll navigate inside other people's minds and help them with their psychological turmoils. It's mostly humorous, but some small details may prove to be... incredibly terrifying. Some of them might have actually been considered too extreme, so parts of the script got left in the cutting room floor.

Sound test?
Inside the game's main data files is a picture of a simple sound test background. At the moment, there is no known way to access a sound test screen.

Milla's orphanage tragedy
There is an... unsettling room inside Milla's Dance Party, that, along with the nearby memory reel, reveals that the orphanage in which Milla worked with had burned down, with the children inside. There are sound files and transcripts about Milla living the experience. After you hear these... you can imagine why they weren't included in the final game.

Milla and Sasha's makeout
Milla and Sasha... romantically involved?

Milla's Dance Party cameras
Some scripted lines about the in-game camera, or some cameras in the party itself.

Milla's Dance Party misc.
Some misc. lines.

Milla's Dance Party dancers
There are a few scripts pertaining 2 cut characters. They both have the same lines, and the sound files use the same names, except that the high-pitched girl's files end with a, and the lower-pitched girl's with an. These don't even have subtitle text.

Late for Basic Braining
You can't read the message boards until after you've done Basic Braining. However, there is data for a board post that only exists before you can actually read it:



"If you're reading this then you're late for class! Report for Basic Braining immediately to avoid detention in the Geodesic Psychoisolation Chamber. --Coach Oleander."

Your name here
In the Collective Unconscious, if you look out of the main ring, between the doors to Coach Oleander's Basic Braining, and Lungfishopolis, is a small slide, like the ones that fly around in the main menu, with "Your Name Here" written in it. You can even go to it with Levitation and take a closer look.

Unused textures
Unused referenced textures have been left in with the main game.

For example, psychonauts\WorkResource\Textures\LevelTextures\SA_SashaBrain - contains reference64x64.tga, reference128x128.tga and reference16on256.tga, a simple checkerboard pattern.

Photoshop documents used to construct textures were also included in the game. For example, the Photoshop document GMen_Disguises.psd contains textures that are shown in-game, although the file itself isn't used by the game.
