The Cutting Room Floor is a site dedicated to unearthing and researching unused and cut content from video games. From debug menus, to unused music, graphics, enemies, or levels, many games have content never meant to be seen by anybody but the developers — or even meant for everybody, but cut due to time/budget constraints.
Feel free to browse our collection of games and start reading. Up for research? Try looking at some stubs and see if you can help us out. Just have some faint memory of some unused menu/level you saw years ago but can't remember how to access it? Feel free to start a page with what you saw and we'll take a look. If you want to help keep this site running and help further research into games, feel free to donate.

Tetris Attack is a re-branding of Panel de Pon, a cutesy puzzle game featuring fairies. However, due to the (mis)usage of the Tetris license, the rebranded version of the game has not seen a re-release. The original Panel de Pon would be released internationally on the Nintendo Switch Online service 25 years later.
