The Cutting Room Floor

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


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.

Tropes used in The Cutting Room Floor include:
  • Dummied Out: Covers all sorts of games with this sort of content.
  • Lemony Narrator: Some articles, when being informative, or written in a very whimsical and snarky tone.
  • Minus World: How many of these exist in games is explored in extensive detail.
  • Obvious Beta: Covers both the intentional versions of this trope and released games, often with examination why the release versions are this trope.
