Hmmm...
To do:
Test out the debug enabled 'Dumb Ways to Die 2'.

Dummy Minigame

Not the sharpest minigame in the shed.

Sprite ID: 2091 In dumbways.swf In the game as 'DummyMinigameClip' there is a dummy minigame, most likely used for testing. In the center it says "Playing a Minigame", and on the top right corner (In bright red text) it says "PRERELEASE BUILD 31.10.2014" (31 October 2014).

Debug Menu

Mercifully not seen here: a rapidly flashing black and white background.

Sprite ID: 3976 In dumbways.swf Is A sprite labeled 'DebugClip' is used for a disabled debug mode. The debug mode can be enabled but since this is a game from the Windows Store, there is no actual way to see how it works.

Full Carousel Music

The music track used in the Wheel of Misfourtune (Sound ID: 3991 In dumbways.swf) is actually longer than what you can normally hear. The music ends after about four seconds, which prevents you from hearing the full 22-second loop. You can hear it in the iOS version by double-clicking the home button when the music is on.

Testing Button

Alternately, F4 is a pretty swell button too.

Sprite ID: 751 In dumbways.swf Is A button used for testing. found offscreen in the title screen (Sprite ID: 752)

Facebook Station

Error!!! this Facebook station is unused. so your offline. Sprite ID: 2135 In dumbways.swf

There is an unused station in the game called "Facebook Station UI" with a button below saying "Connect" (similar to the testing button above) with a back button on a blue background. It lets players connect to Facebook and challenge their friends and mentions 'Kids Mode', both leftovers from the mobile versions.

      FACEBOOK_LOGIN_SUCCESS:String = "facebookLoginSuccess";
      
      FACEBOOK_LOGIN_CANCELLED:String = "facebookLoginCancelled";
      
      FACEBOOK_LOGIN_FAILED:String = "facebookLoginFailed";
      
      MSG_SIGN_IN:String = "Sign in to see how you rate\nagainst your friends.";
      
      MSG_SIGN_IN_FAILED:String = "Sign in to see how you rate\nagainst your friends.";
      
      MSG_SIGN_IN_NOT_SUPPORTED:String = "Facebook is not supported on this platform.";
      
      MSG_SIGN_IN_NOT_SUPPORTED_KIDS_MODE:String = "Facebook is not supported in kids’ mode.";
      
      MSG_LEADERBOARD_LOADING:String = "Connecting ...";

Additionally, the player would've also had the option to share their victories and deaths to Facebook.

         _loc1_:ShareData = new ShareData("a facebook death share");
         _loc1_.title = "a facebook death share title";
         _loc1_.caption = "a facebook death share caption";
         _loc1_.url = "http://millipede.com.au";
         _loc1_.imageURL = "http://millipede.com.au/wp-content/themes/millipede5/resources/img/millipede.png";

Wheel of Misfortune Room

Size matters.

The Wheel of Misfortune room (Sprite ID: 440 In dumbways.swf) is considerably larger than what can actually be seen. The wall is made up of two squares, and the floor is one big circle, the knife can also be seen floating in the air, ready to be thrown.

Shape ID: 999 Sprite IDs: 1000,1001,1002,1003,1006,1008 In dumbways.swf is A crudely drawn arrow. Its purpose is unknown, most likely a placeholder.
