Despite being cut, his sprites would later be used for [[Rocko]] in ''[[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]]''. According to [[Drawn to Life Credits|Joseph Tringali]], he was "just another Raposa", and was removed due to the plot not developing to necessitate him as a character. | Despite being cut, his sprites would later be used for [[Rocko]] in ''[[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]]''.

On November 13th, 2020, Joseph Tringali shared some concept art and cut content for [[Drawn to Life]], [[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]], and [[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]]. Among them was a cut minigame where the player would have to pour buckets of water on the village, covered in fire. Unlike the other unused minigames, we know when this game was supposed to be played.<!--see comment below--> | On November 13th, 2020, Joseph Tringali shared some concept art and cut content for [[Drawn to Life]], [[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]], and [[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]].

| − | According to | + | <!--According to an early draft of Drawn to Life (The GDD snippet), during the [[Beach Gate]] segment of the game, [[Isaac]] would have been corrupted by a "Shadow Stone" and influenced to set the village on fire. The player would then have to take water from the Lake and put out the fires. After this event was completed, [[Cricket]] and the [[Mayor]] would confront him while the [[Hero]] took the Shadow Stone to a "Village Pedestal" and destroyed it.--> |

If you press start from here, you are taken to a very early Drawing screen, where you are presented with the outline of the Hero. You can draw whatever Hero you like, as no templates are available. If you press start from here, you are taken to a long, looping corridor that uses [[Snow Gate]] textures and the same Blue Monkey as the Hero. You can jump by pressing A, walk using the D-Pad, run with B, and change between three sizes using Y. The top screen shows a graphic resembling the top screen during levels in the final game. In this graphic (which is one full sprite and not a collection of sprites), the player has two lives, 102200 points, one [[Template]] piece, and is in World 2-1. | If you press start from here, you are taken to a very early Drawing screen, where you are presented with the outline of the Hero.

Pressing start from here takes you to a brown void with no top screen. The Hero is overlaid on top of the brown void. Leaving the Hero idle will cause them to start dancing, although you can change its animations by pressing L or R. Pressing L will cycle through an idle animation, a dance, the jumping animation, running, and walking, while pressing R cycles through these in reverse. Pressing B will still alter your size, and pressing X will put you in a T-pose. You can move left and right with the D-Pad, but not up and down.
