Unused Sprites

Looking through the game files, there is a texture called AreaText.png. The use for it is unknown.

Calibration Sprites

Some sprites are actually calibration images.

Calibration Value Marker

A downward arrow.

Unused Sounds

BAL_All8

This sound effect was used in the public demo when you find all 8 notebooks. This is never used in the current version of Baldi's Basics Plus.

BAL_CongratsDemo

This was used for the public demo when you complete all the levels it had to offer. It may be a leftover.

BAL_Countdown

All of the sound clips of Baldi saying a number from Baldi's Basics Classic combined. It's use is unknown.

BAL_DemoIntro

This sound clip plays in the title screen for the public demo of the game. It may be a leftover.

Test

This sound clip is a direct reference to an unused voice clip found in the files of Sonic's Schoolhouse. It's mystman12 saying "Elephant hit". This was also used in the Testroom Easter egg in Baldi's Basics Classic.

PRI_NoStabbing

This sound clip is Leftover from Baldi's Basics Classic from the scrapped and unused "Pencil Boy" character.

Unused Developer Text

In the game's main folder, "BALDI_Data/StreamingAssets", there are public files called "Subtitles_En" and "Subtitles_Fr". These files are used to modify the main menu texts, item names and subtitles in-game. Both of these files include a "number" test, from 0-9, followed after that by "Elephant Hit." These test lines can be also found in "Subtitles_Fr", but in French. "Elephant Hit" is another direct reference to the unused Sonic's Schoolhouse voice clip.

Unused Code

Unused CRT Effect

Looking through the files, there are scripts called "BaseCRTEffect" and "CRTEffect". There are multiple mentions in code about a CRT Effect, although it is never used. It may be implemented later in the game.

CRTEffect

using System;
using UnityEngine;

// Token: 0x020001AA RID: 426
[AddComponentMenu("Image Effects/CRT/Ultimate CRT")]
public class CRTEffect : BaseCRTEffect
{
	// Token: 0x06000994 RID: 2452 RVA: 0x00008241 File Offset: 0x00006441
	private void OnPreCull()
	{
		base.InternalPreRender();
	}

	// Token: 0x06000995 RID: 2453 RVA: 0x00008249 File Offset: 0x00006449
	private void OnRenderImage(RenderTexture src, RenderTexture dest)
	{
		base.ProcessEffect(src, dest);
	}
}

Anti-Piracy

To do: If it's only in a demo, might be a better fit for a prerelease or proto page.

The Kickstarter exclusive demo for the game contains an anti-piracy method. If a non-backer or a backer who pledged less than $30 attempts to play the demo, this screen, showing an upset Baldi in his office, will come up along with some unsettling music. This is similar to the anti-piracy method Donkey Kong Country 2 and 3 used, and it may be a reference, as developer mystman12 is a Donkey Kong fan. Another anti-piracy method is also present; while playing, Baldi becomes impossibly quick after collecting only two notebooks, Gotta Sweep has no cooldown between sweeping times, there are 2 Principal of the Things (Principals of the Thing?), and the game will crash randomly. For some reason, however, these anti-piracy methods seem to be absent from the current Early Access build of the game.
