Scrapped Island

Chapter 0, also known as The Moon 2.0 or island6, was a DLC which got scrapped mid-development. It has a level and various strings left over, but the assets are all removed. The level was entitled "Center of the Moon" and is supposedly meant to be a sandbox in the center of the moon. The strings also imply a destroyed state. A sign is leftover, saying "PLACEHOLDER: this is the center of the moon". Its season text would say "one year ago" and the icon is not finished, using Epilogue's icon instead. It exists in the main menu, however has been hardcoded to be hidden.

Unused/Removed Levels

ThrusterTest

An unused test level present in the WiiWare & 1.5 versions of the game. It works like Going Up, the first level of the game, but commons are replaced with ivies and the commons that are used to build with are replaced with gooballs named "Thruster". Their purpose stems from an also-unused attribute.

MightyBlimp

A cut level from the mobile versions of the game found in the files of version 1.5, all that'd show up is the titular "Mighty Blimp" with a sign that says "I Bought a Blimp!" on a windy and dark background. The Player cannot do anything here.

Route99

A cut level from the mobile versions of the game, found by a new level button in chapter 4, It's a road with a guy who, after talking to them long enough you can "buy" the mighty blimp, to which returning to the stage you could sell your blimp if you didn't like it.

Unused Attributes

Leftover in the game's behaviors are the Thruster and Decay attributes. These are both unused, but are partially completed. Thruster would act like a thruster and thrust the goo, but it does not have any assets associated with it. Decay, meanwhile, is intended to kill the goo after a set amount of time.

It's unknown if these were meant for the unused Moon 2.0 or for a scrapped level.
