Unused Animations/Moves

Mach 3 Animation

This animation was the original Mach 3 animation. Originally, Mach 3 was going to be like a shinespark, which would be toggled optionally instead of automatically like in the final game. However, Mach 3 is still active in the game. When you start running, you can see that Mach 3 is active for a single frame, but it skips straight to Mach 4. Some footage of Mach 3 can be found here.

Super Side Jump

This unused move was never seen on Tumblr or Twitter and is disabled in-game. However, there are mentions of this move in the script scr_player_Sjump. Loading this in-game replaces the regular superjump with the sidejump, but slamming into walls and bricks does nothing. You can cancel the sidejump by pressing Shift. A similar move is used for the Noise in Patreon builds where he is playable, where he can steer the move and/or go back to using the Pogo Stick.

Meteor Peppino

• 

  Flying

• 

  Bouncing off a sloped surface.

• 

  Hitting a wall

Animations exist for an unused transformation where Peppino is launched by a strong enemy. Peppino would break through metal blocks and bounce off of slopes in this form.

Sprites Used in Later Builds

Many of the unused sprites in here would see later use in future builds. These include;

• The icon for the gun ammo in the Halloween Demo.
• The Forknight, Pepperoni Goblin, Pineacool, Piraneapple, an early Trash Pan, and Winged Anchovy.
• The orange cloud backdrop used for the end of both the Halloween demo and Demo 2.
• Pepperman and Pillar John.
• The pizza hud element, used in early playtest versions of the Halloween demo as an early take on the combo system.
• The game's logo with "Demo" underneath it.
• Peppino getting bonked by a bowling ball, using the shotgun, and feeding Toppins to Pillar John.
• The cutscene of Peppino climbing the spiraling staircase.
• The Noise throwing a bomb.

Unused Misc. Sprites

Early Test Build	Final (First frame)

An image of Peppino giving two thumbs ups with the words “YOU SUCK!” over his head. While this was remade and used as the lowest possible judgement in the final game, the original sprite is still present in the final game's files.

• Some extra shading was removed.
• The lower portion of Peppino's body has been touched up, along with his hair and stubble.
• The color choice for the "You suck!" lettering was made more saturated.
• For some reason, the shading on Peppino's hands is now transparent.
