Trial Version Text

There are 2 text strings referring to a trial version of the game, which would've seemingly been the final but with a time limit on how long you can play. No such trial version of the game exists, as the game is completely free.

HUD Text Strings

There are sprites for buttons or other stuff with text. Text strings for these can be found in the files, and go unused due to them being handled by images.

Unused Sounds

Fire Sound Effect

Alongside the other sound effects for powerups, there exists a sound effect for a fire powerup, named "get_fire.wav". This is likely related to the unused fireworks upgrade.

Internal Name

The lib file for Fling a Thing calls it "Suckies". Suckie is the name of the Things you fling.
