Face Raiders is an application for Nintendo 3DS systems that allows users to shoot their face. Like, you take a picture of your face and the game lets you shoot a bunch of clones of it. Got that? Good.

Dummy Textures

Present in the files for most models is this dummy texture named dummy8x8.

Present in a file named "pnote.bctex", there is a 256x256 dummy texture named Dummy256.

In a file named "unknown.bctex", there is a 128x128 dummy texture named unknown_face. This is same face used if you got a high score, but then deleted the face from your Face Collection or if you get a game over.

In a file named "face.bctex", there is a 128x128 dummy texture named DummyFace128. This seemingly would be used as a dummy for the faces of various enemies rather than a photo of the user's face. The same face is used on the Home Menu banner if you haven't saved any photos and the tips in the game over menu.

Unused Graphics

In the files, there exists graphics of the diver enemy able to take up to 8 hits. However, because it can only take up to 5 hits, 6-8 goes completely unused in gameplay. By modifying the game to make it have 8 hp instead of 5, this graphic can be seen.

Like the skull, The 8 only has half of a graphic, and that half is copied and mirrored to make the other half.
