The Town With No Name is a parody(?) of Western movies, and... Well, it's a bit hard to explain. Some claim it's a shoddy game made for a dying console (the CDTV) and one of the worst games of all time (what with the creators trying to distance themselves from it)--others think it may be one of the first examples of a shitpost/joke game that somehow got published (what with its poor art and voice acting, bizarre dialogue and gags, and rudimentary gameplay).

While we may never know which one it is since the development of it is shrouded in mystery, two things are certain about it; it's entertaining, and it has unused content that we get to cover!

Unused Animations

BUNNYGUNNYANIM

Found in the tutorial files. It was most likely supposed to be used while you're told about the action screen and you have to shoot Bernard the Bunny.

Evil Eb

Several unused animations of Evil Eb popping up from behind buildings and shooting. In the final game, Evil Eb is not fought at all - the player character spares him instead.

CROWDMISTAKEANIM

An animation of the priest talking, accompanied by a few of the game's other characters. Judging by the name of the animation, it could have been used if the character makes a mistake or as an alternative game over.

SPECIALKITANIM

The shop apparently had one more item besides baked beans: the Prospector's Gold Panning Kit.

CLOSEDANIM

An animation of the store closing. This may have been used the second time you go to it.

TTWNNTITLEANIM

An alternate variation of the game's title.

FMP2ANIM

An unused opening credit.

Unused Graphics

ORRIDTESTPIC

Some kind of placeholder image.

MEANWHILESIGN

An unused version of the "MEANWHILE" splash card, on a sign instead of in the Back to the Future font.

FLAGS

An unused language select screen; It can be accessed in-game by replacing another 'SHOT' file with the file 'LINGOSHOT'. It is obviously incomplete as only clicking the UK flag does anything and that seems to just return you back to the title screen.

DDNLDPOSTER

The first of a unused set of images possibly intended for the 'making of bit'.

DIRECTORCUT

A rather confused looking Fergus points at something offscreen while holding a gun incorrectly. It is very similar to the used images in tone.

GIANTINHISFIELD

SEANKPIC

I have absolutely no clue, probably some sort of inside joke from Delta 4.

Unused Audio

Music

MOD.BADSECTOR4

A calliope-like tune, purpose unknown.

MOD.BIZARRETUNE

A bizarre tune, purpose unknown.

MOD.SALOONTUNE1

Probably an early version of the saloon jingle, or a loop for when in the saloon.

MOD.UPSTAIRSTUNE

This song was most likely to be used for the upstairs area in the saloon.

Sound Effects

Several unused sound effects can be found. Where some of them could've been used is a mystery.

Audio	Filename	Note
	AAAAHHHH!	A high-pitched shriek.
	AARRGGHHFX	A low pitched scream, followed by a crash. Likely meant for when you jump off the 2nd floor of the saloon.
	CRY4	A woman moaning loudly.
	DRAWBANG	A crude mouth gunshot noise.
	RICOCHET	A crude mouth ricochet noise.
	STARWARSFX	The Star Wars theme, intended for the train ending but cut likely due to copyright.

Voices

Low quality takes of the game's dialogue exist, likely from before the switch to CD audio. Somehow, the voice acting could have been even worse than it is in the final game.
