Throughout the history of Battle for Dream Island, there exists content that was not generally intended to be seen, noticed, or otherwise was lost to the basic audience at one point in time. Content here could include items from the drawings (TFI, TFP), the show (BFDI, BFDIA, IDFB, BFB, TPOT), hidden content out of bounds in .fla files for animations, or other media that is BFDI related.
Please note that for all intents and purposes, none of the information documented is considered to be canon with the rest of the series.
Yeah, Who? I Wanna Know[]
Evil Leafy sneaks up[]
In 1-1.fla, when Pencil brings out the Leafy Detector, an outline of Evil Leafy appears behind the trees on Layer 116. It never shows up because the layer that Evil Leafy is on is a guide layer, which when exported into a .swf, doesn't appear.
However, Evil Leafy appears in an alternate cut of the scene.
Reference picture[]
In 1-1.fla, there's a graphic in the library labeled "screenie", which contains "frame 001.png", the first frame from the BFDI intro. This was most likely used as a reference. This is also left in 1-voting.fla.
Extra tosser footage[]
In 1-3.fla, there's an extra second of footage of the tosser resting on the grass after sending the eliminated contestants away.
Gelatin's early design[]
A drawn picture of Gelatin with no arms can be seen in the object library named as "gel pic" in 1-4.fla. It's possible that this was going to be the original design of Gelatin, being armless. Another unused Gelatin related symbol is "gelatin2", which contains "Gel ATin" written in blue.
Lollipop's Expression[]
When a piece of paper lands on Book's face, there is an off-screen expression on Lollipop, which is a look of surprise.
"Don't read this yet"[]
In 1-2.fla, when eraser reads the first rule, there is an offscreen rule that says "Rule Two: Don't read this yet."
"No reading ahead"[]
In 1-5.fla when Yellow Face reads the rules, Rule Four is at the bottom and says "No reading ahead", which is the same message for Rule Three when Eraser was reading off the rules.
Unused Golf Ball line[]
In 1-screens.fla, Golf Ball's line at the end was originally:
but it got cut to:
with scribbles over the deleted line to imply it wasn't needed.
1-screens[]
In 1-5.fla, before the scene with Firey nearly slapping Coiny, 2 frames read "1-screens", which is the name of the Flash file with the screens scene.
Fries sitting with old asset[]
In 1-2.fla, there is a graphic of Fries on the ground after being slapped by Book with his old asset.
bubble and flower vid (S1 episode 23)[]
In 1-2.fla, there is a graphic of a volcano scene in "Hurtful!" where Bubble throws Flower into the lava.
2 year old vid (S1 episode 1a)[]
In the same file, there is a graphic of a Balance Beam scene in the first part of "Take the Plunge" where Leafy gets rescued by Pin.
Gallery[]
Zeeky Boogy Doog[]
Book Bitmap[]
In the fla file "4-1 with bending", there is a bitmap called "Bitmap 97". It's a pose from BFDIA 1(it is likely that Book was originally supposed to use this pose while trying to freeze Firey)..
Gorge 2[]
The asset
In 4-4.fla, there is a symbol named "Gorge 2" that is used in that scene. The HPRC is sitting at the edge of the first platform. However, theres another platform offscreen.
BFDIA 5[]
Original Script[]
History[]
On January 29th, 2014, BlockyCuzco/Blocky roblox cuzco created a page on the Battle for Dream Island Wiki titled "BFDIA 5 Original Script" which contained an alleged early script for BFDIA 5. The page was eventually deleted by Cloudy176, but later archived it on a subpage titled User:Cloudy176/BFDIA 5 Original Script. The original page had this text blurb when it was created:
"This script was found on a page on http://htwins.net/edit/ (I'm not telling you which one cause you'll probably mess it up). Here is the original script for BFDIA 5. View it correctly here."
Given this summary, the original script was found on Edit the Text, a game hosted on HTwins.net, which allowed random users to edit fields of texts for others to see and change as well as creating subpages. The game was taken offline in 2018 after HTwins.net went offline temporarily, with no reason given for it's closure.
Summary[]
The episode was originally intended to release in smaller chunks, and BFDIA 5b was originally intended to be a normal episode rather than a flash game.
BFDIA 5a[]
The episode mostly plays out the same as it did before the challenge wheel is spun. However, a few minor differences are present before this scene.
- According to a note, putting Nickel and Coiny together would create clones of Evil Leafy. The final episode changed this to a portal that spews money.
- The first negative viewer comment regarding Match when she was in the bottom 2 was said by a user called "Nicholas Chadderton". In the final version, this user is called "Epicfaceness483".
- After Pin's limbs are removed, Book was going to say "Lol!" instead of "Haha!" in the final episode.
- After Gelatin kills Leafy, Firey makes a remark about strangers being stranger these days, he says "...Hey!". This was omitted in the final episode.
- Puffball was going to say "Spin it for me Book!" after it is revealed she won the prize. The final episode recycles a similar line from "Insectophobe's Nightmare 3".
Once the challenge wheel is ready to be spun, Ruby tries to spin it, but it won't budge. Book finds out that it requires a passcode, and it belongs to Puffball Speaker Box, according to the back of the wheel. Fries is asked to remove the knife from Puffball Speaker Box. Fries is initially reluctant, but Ruby convinces him to do it. After much struggle, Fries successfully pulls out the knife, but it flies out, passing over Firey, popping Bubble, and ricocheting off of the Swings, until being stabbed once again in Puffball Speaker Box. Fries tries once again, successfully removing the knife, but shatters Ice Cube and goes into the Hand-powered Recovery Center, making strange noises, before activating a siren.
Tennis Ball is shocked and enters a state of panic as the HPRC malfunctions. Meanwhile, Fries tries to talk to Puffball Speaker Box, who is successfully revived. Fries asks her to unlock the contest wheel, and she agrees to do so. After the wheel is unlocked, Tennis Ball says that the HPRC will "delimbify". Firey brushes it off, before Tennis Ball explains that the HPRC has a reserve of limbs that will burst any second. As Firey refuses to believe Tennis Ball, the delimbification process starts and limbs fly everywhere. A stream of them hits Puffball Speaker Box, knocking her into the Evil Canyon's spikes, with a stream of rainbows being seen from the distance. Firey says that there is no more host anymore as Puffball Speaker Box, at that point, officially died. Golf Ball asks Tennis Ball if the HPRC will still work, who says it won't. Firey then panics, saying that they will die forever. Golf Ball tries to calm down everyone by saying that if they use common sense and avoid Evil Leafy, they will all be fine. However, everyone continues to panic, making Golf Ball herself panic. Suddenly, Evil Leafy teleports on top of Golf Ball, making her faint. Evil Leafy then sinks into Golf Ball. Earthquakes, fires, and chaos happen as Evil Leafy and clones of her terrorize the contestants. At least, Gelatin spins the challenge wheel, ending the episode. The episode then says that BFDIA 5b will release on December 17th, 2012.
BFDIA 5b[]
This episode would have used the second half of "Get in the Van" and parts of "No More Snow!", as well as an alternate adaptation of the events of BFDIA 5b. The episode starts with the beginning of the 3 teams preparing for the challenge in what is now "Get in the Van" plays out mostly unaltered, with Needle asking where Yoyle Mountain is being replaced by Yellow Face. The episode continues to be mostly unchanged from the final until the scene where Tennis Ball is explaining that they could be saved by a trebuchet and Evil Leafy eats his group and FreeSmart is seen. Afterwards, what sounds like digesting or chewing sounds play. Walking sounds are then heard, and the scene where Pin gets stuck in Glue and gets crushed by a tree from "No More Snow!" plays out, without any edits. Afterwards, persumably inside Evil Leafy, the weird creature sounds from "Take the Plunge: Part 2" play at a low pitch, until Ice Cube says "I'm scared!". Match then asks Golf Ball how to get out of Evil Leafy. Golf Ball is surprised that Match had escaped the Tiny Loser Chamber. Match does not care about Golf Ball's reaction and just wants to know how to get out. Golf Ball replies saying that she refuses to help cheaters.
Unused level versions[]
In "5b Update", several unused versions of the levels are shown in beta. With one of them showcasing playable versions of the other FreeSmart members.
001. Time to explore[]
The map is the exact same, except Book's dialogue sprite has a rainbow gradient as a background instead of the light pink in the final version, the ground had no border and was a brighter shade of red, and the menu sprite was just a black box.
006. Landfill[]
The level is the same except the background is The Clubhouse Of Awesomeness
007. Rock Bottom/A friend[]
The number 007 is assigned to the level "008. A friend", the differences are, instead of Book, Match is the only playable character here, and instead of the ground being gray, it’s the old red stripe texture without borders
008. A friend/Pillar 2[]
The number 008 is assigned to level named 012. Pillar 2, but the difference between 012. and this level is the addition of Match, Ice Cube, Bubble, Ruby and Pencil.
009. A Companion/High[]
The number 009 is assigned to "014. High" and High has a space background. And the menu sprite is a black box, just like in 001.
BFDIA 5c and 5d[]
The episodes play out somewhat differently compared to the final versions. The episode opens with Puffball, Firey, and Gelatin flying over the Evil Forest and descending into it. Evil Leafy then teleports onto Fries and sinks into him. Firey then tells Fries to vomit up Evil Leafy, referring to Evil Leafy as a male. Fries says he's never vomited before, but then vomits up Golf Ball. Firey asks Fries if he has taken any Anti-Poison, to which Fries denies before vomiting up Tennis Ball, and then the FreeSmart Van with the FreeSmarters driving away, with Gelatin remarking that FreeSmart is now ahead. FreeSmart sings a song as they approach the Goiky Canal, with Bubble remarking that it's 500 miles wide. Like the final episode, FreeSmart recovers every members who passes out from a lack of oxygen and throw the dead bodies out.
W.O.A.H. Bunch is seen once again at the Evil Canyon, sans Pin. Nickel complains that there is no way to get across, and Coiny says that there is a way. Coiny calls Needle "Needy", and she slaps him across. Bomby, Yellow Face, Spongy, and Nickel all do the same. With no way to get Needle across unless they kill her and recover her later on, Yellow Face kills Needle with a flamethrower, similarly to the final episode.
BFDIA 5e[]
The episode's beginning plays out nearly identically to the final version's first scenes with FreeSmart, where they emerge from the Goiky Canal, travel through Yoyle City, and Ruby places the HPRC on the glue trail that the FreeSmart Van had left behind, and Pencil, getting trapped by a Fish Monster, and asks Match to kill her by sawing her in half. Meanwhile, W.O.A.H. Bunch is readily approaching the Goiky Canal, and Fries then vomits Evil Leafy. The teammates cheer as they throw Evil Leafy into the Goiky Canal, transforming it into a bright red color. Despite Coiny's warnings, Yellow Face cannonballs into the water, creating a giant Evil Leafy. Golf Ball and Gelatin notice as they fly overhead on Puffball, until the giant Evil Leafy teleports in front of them, causing Fries, Gelatin, and
BFDIA 6 (2013)[]
Meatball by rj3ful1[]
In the file 15i-rcolumn.fla from the BFB 15 fla files, there is an RC called Meatball. For some reason, this RC has an asset that dates back to 8/11/2013, 10 days after BFDIA 5e was published. As seen in the Back 2 School Bad News video, there is an unreleased .fla file that has the original BFDIA 6 RCs, and this means that Meatball would have appeared in the episode if it was released in 2013 as intended.
Intruder Alert[]
- During Cake At Stake, Yellow Face originally said 20,000 people would not be getting the family discount instead of 10,000, as he does in the final episode. It's likely that the 20,000 amount was a temporary recording to allow animation to begin for the episode prior to the voting period being finalized.[1]
- The line “Hooray, but with arms!” was originally neutral, but was changed for the optimism.
Well, Look Who It Is![]
- According to CARY REACTS TO BFDIA 13, During the bridge scene, Firey would have gently nudged Gelatin and Rocky into the water instead of shoving them.
PointyPointyPointy ♫[]
In the meetup version of "PointyPointyPointy ♫", the scene where Pin rages was 2D, and had the islands being electrocuted instead of only the bed pole.
