Hmmm...
To do:
Go though on every older version of Pou and try to find the main differences and graphics and such.

Pou is a virtual pet game created by Zakeh in which the player must take care of a brown triangle alien of the same name.

Mirror

There is a sprite of a mirror in assets\images\mirrors in the Android version and Pou.app\images\mirrors in the iOS version, named long_simple_darkgrey.png. Given its resemblance to the icons that show up on the lower left corners of the screen, this might have been an icon that could've been used in the bedroom before the closet was chosen.

Toyze Icons

There is a unused icons of Pou toys from a now discontinued toy service brand, Toyze, which was a company that sold customized toys figurines to mobile game characters like Cut the Rope, Talking Tom & Friends, The Tribez, and plus even Pou. On 2015, the service was shutdown, leaving the Toyze icons now unused in the files.

Unused Sounds

There's an unused sound at res\ in the Android version and Pou.app\ in the iOS version, called Gv.ogg and fall.wav in each version respectively. It 's an eerie-sounding arpeggio produced by a string instrument. In previous Android builds, it was known as fall.ogg and was located in res\raw. It was supposed to be used when Pou fell in Sky Jump, but the game abruptly cuts to the Game Over screen when this happens, rendering it unused.

This was a reused sound from a now deleted game by the same developers of Pou: Persian Maze, it was used when the player falls into a pithole in-game.
