Unused Graphics

Early Logo File

UI\Logo\logo.NCGR contains an early version of the logo graphics displayed before the game's title screen.

• CyberPlanet Interactive's logo is an older version, which was used from 2008 to 2010.
• Phoenix Games' logo is present. This hints that an European release of this version of the game was planned, but never came to fruition.

"Cancle" Button

An unused graphic for a Cancel button can be found as part of UI\Player\vk_letters.NCBR. Noticeably, it is misspelled as "Cancle".

Demo Leftovers

Throughout the game's files are many leftover graphics from a demo version.

Unused Text

At the root of the cartridge data is the game's banner file, GameBanner.bnr, which contains an icon, alongside text to be displayed in the DS's main menu. However, there are three other banner files that go unparsed, and reference two other potential publishers, as well as the game's developers, CyberPlanet Interactive. Some of them also reference an earlier title for the game; Hoppies II.
