Prototype Info

Unused Graphics

There is one unused Bubsy frame where he looks to camera.

Unused Text

Loading Screen

Whenever the game displays a loading screen, it shows one of several randomly-chosen "humorous" messages. However, the game's code contains a much longer list, which doens't seem to appear in-game. Interestingly, many of the unused messages seem to relate to Bubsy being killed by obstacles (water, cars, eggs, etc.). A loading screen occurs whenever Bubsy loses a life, so presumably these would have been used in the appropriate situation, but in practice the used messages are all generic (and mostly just about loading/waiting).

The full list is below. Since the selection is random, it's possible that any of the others can appear and just haven't yet been observed to do so.

Unused Sounds

BUBINTRO.WAV

A studio quality mix of the title theme from the original console versions. While the title screen itself is silent in this remake, the theme is still heard in the bonus areas. However, a MIDI rendition is used instead. It was probably intended for the title screen, but goes unused.

ALARM.WAV

An alarm sound, taken from the Pilot episode of Bubsy.

Unused Music

1DEMISE2.MID

A short jingle resembling the first level's theme. Given the file name, its intended use may have had something to do with losing a life.

W2FLARE.MID

Strangely enough, while the fair chapters have an exact unused snippet of the SNES version of Bubsy that goes unused on the game as well.
