The Cutting Room Floor
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 ourcollection of games and start reading. Up for research? Try looking atsome 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.

Featured File
Dungeon Keeper is a strategy video game that was the last to be developed by Bullfrog Productions under Peter Molyneux.
In the game, the player attempts to build and manage a dungeon or lair while protecting it from (computer-controlled) "hero" characters intent on stealing the user's accumulated treasures and killing various monsters. The game was met with high critical praise and positive gamer reaction, resulting ina sequel being made.
There are six possible Bonus Levels to be located in the game, including the "Moon" level. However, you can only gain access to five of them in unmodded games.
The "Locate Hidden Realm" bonus crate should have been located in Level 14, "Sleepiburgh", to the opposite side of the "Transfer Creature". The crate itself is not in the game, possibly due to a mistake by the programmers where they forgot about it or (accidentally) erased the crate.
