The Cut Content of Rain world

IIRC in a Q&A videocult said that nightcat almost did get a campaign but their color scheme made it really hard to tell the slugcat from the background. So the idea was scrapped and Nightcat was regulated to the arena mode 4th character.

i think nightcat is canon because when you beat as gourmand you can see a black slugcat with white eyes telling the pups about him.

Nightcat exists in the same void of necessity that spawns characters like Waluigi. Waluigi exists because Wario needed a doubles partner for tennis, Nightcat exists because arena mode needed a player 4. Nightcat and Waluigi are kindred in this regard, lost souls adrift in a world that only ever needs them incidentally, novelty placeholder playthings to be callously discarded after their expiration date. Whether you are Nightcat, Waluigi, Sisyphus, or the Itsy Bitsy Spider, your efforts are in vain and your merits will not be recognized. The rain is coming little slugcat, wahaha.

You made me realize that all the slug Cats in the survivor intro were the devblog slugcats, 1 large pink one, 1 large white one, 1 small white one (survivor) 1 small Yellow one (monk) and one small green one

The Suburban area for Outskirts is very interesting as Spoilers: Suburban Drifts is the name of it in Saint's campaign

Very well made! Shame rain world content doesn’t really get many views.

Fun fact, nightcat makes a little cameo in Gourmand's ending cutscene

If you want to find out about more cut content you should read through the entire devlog. It's really long, but there's a ton of cool stuff in there that never made it.

There’s a bit more cut content from downpour now, like the mushroom threat theme layer, pit spider thing in riv, and prolly some more if you look (that’s all I remember 🤷)! Scavs in the base gamer were originally meant to glide, and there are many assets in the files of hologram things the overseers were supposed to show (but didn’t ig) you depicting strange creatures! There was originally (according to the game sfx library) supposed to be a kraken entity but I think that was translated into the leviathan, though the kraken sounds were never used. Great work on the editing and trasnitions, although it seemed a bit slow 🤔. Nice work anyways :)❤

Actually Nightcat and Inv/Enot are the same Slugcat. If you beat Inv campaign and play the dating sim a line of dialogue with spear master reveals this with Inv saying "I know how it feels to be nerfed. I mean they removed me from arena mode!!!"

nightcat is not really scrapped, and if you wanna find cool scrapped content you should look at the dev comments in game, there is cool stuff like the pit monster or the original stowaway concept

Night cat makes anmaperance in the gourmand end cutscene

feels like a zullie the witch video, good job!

Really well made video! Congratz!! 👏🏻

Nightcat shows up in gourmand's ending so it is canon

did slugcat just hyperventalate after facing a vulture straight on? 3:40 im not the only one seeing this right? bro got traumatized after a near death experience lol

Downpour has a lot of cool cut content. Yeeks were going to be a lot more complex, and they still have code from before they were simplified. Yeeks were honestly done dirty by Akupara.

you missed a really cool detail you can see in concept art, the superstructure was originally meant to be a massive pyramid instead of a cube

Fun fact: Nightcat shows up in the gourmand ending cut scene

Such a peaceful music for such a chaotic game lol
