Unused Graphics

Chinese flag

A Chinese flag exists in interface.xnb despite the Chinese translation of the game being only available in China.

Reference sprites

Among Quinn's sprites in quinn.xnb there are some reference images likely used as a base for his animations.

Small logo

A smaller version of the logo exists in the interface.xnb spritesheet, although it is partially overwritten by a floppy disc icon.

3 2 1 GO!

Text reading "3 2 1 GO!" found in special.xnb for a Smash Bros-type hidden gamemode.

Player icon frames

Mugshot frames for a Smash Bros-type hidden gamemode.

Twist logo

Hidden away in eagled.xnb, the title logo from the upcoming release of Eagle Island: Twist can be found. TW and ST seem to be further away from I than in the promo art posted by Pixelnicks.

SuperHot style logo

A superhot-style logo reading "Eagle Island".

PlayStation buttons

Icons for buttons of a PlayStation controller. These are doubly unused, as Eagle Island has not been ported to PS4/5 yet, and these icons are duplicates of ones found in the fonts folder with the rest of the button icons.

Cheat Coin

A "cheat coin". It doesn't perform any cheats, and only plays a sound when picked up by Quill.
