The zombie children actually fits perfectly with the first games goofy but strangely gloomy style. None of the later games has that spesific feel to them, they follow the more comedic and cartoony path.
There's mods for PvZ that make it way harder. I can't remember if it's Hard or Brutal, but one gives this "Double Jump" to the Pole Vaulter, having him do the jump as normal, and then again before walking slowly as usual
Fun fact not covered! In the Bloom and Doom beta, there's a Bassline in the Grasswalk Horde that's exclusive to that beta. It's not present in both the OST version or the In-game version! Alongside that, the beta has an unused intro song cue that plays as well.

I am so hyped to see unused Plants and Zombies! As a huge PvZ nerd this just warms my heart, and I NEED to list all who appeared in later games: First, about the other enemy types. George Fan stated in multiple interviews that they first had the tower defense mechanics planned with the plants, but couldn't decide on an enemy. They wanted to change something slow, and the final decision was zombies because they were just booming at the early 2000s. 1:59 Carrots and Beetroot both got added in PvZ 2. In the same world even, Neon Mixtape Tour. Onions appeared in the Ice Age. There are multiple iterations of these veggies in later games like Heroes and Garden Warfare. 2:34 Multiple peapod-looking Peashooters made their way in PvZ 2. Also the Peashooter in garden Warfare has Peapods as arms. 4:30 I think many of these unused zombies give a vibe of Garden Warfare and also the card game Heroes. The zombie monkey appeared in PvZ 2 and also as a costume in Battle for Neighborville. 4:48 These t h i c c Zombies' body shape for me looks kinda similar to the Cardio Zombie in PvZ2 and some Zombie classes in Garden Warfare. 19:10 The snow level, of course, appeared in PvZ2 being the Ice Age. ALso, the quote "Bloom and Doom" was said in many later PvZ games. For example, the card game PvZ Heroes was adverticed as "A battle between bloom and doom".
fun fact: in the comics, dino might has tugboat wearing clothing similar to the zombie at 4:28, the only difference i remember is that the middle part on the arm is split on the left arm in the comics, here it's together.
1:30 fun fact: the bottom left robot looks like one of the robots from the Far Future PvZ 2 (the Shield Zombie). The fly like enemies could've been inspiration for the Bug Zombies that's in the Lost City in PvZ 2.
Cool stuff, always interesting to see just how much content was actually left out on some of these games. a lot of the ideas shown were really good, can't imagine why they were scrapped.
17:13 I remember there being a mini game one the DS version of pvz where the level would randomy change the fire rate of the pea shooters you were given as the it got less/more sunny. And I think the level was called sunny day. (I remember everything else except the name lol)
I noticed in the short clip of the place holder lawn mower caution bars, that when it blamoed the zombies out of existence, only one of the caution bars disappeared, which I find interesting as it implies that in that early build that you could have the zombies get past your defenses twice before getting game over for each row of the lawn, as in the finished build with the lawn mowers, once the mower was used, it was a one and done, and couldn't be used again in that row for the rest of the level. I also wonder if that idea of a second line of defense partly made it into the rake mechanic, a rake you can buy from Crazy Dave that instantly kills just about every variant of zombie, but instead of being at the back with the mowers it's near the front, being two slots back from the zombie spawning area. This is pretty damn neat seeing an on depth look at some of the behind the scenes of my childhood classic game I first played on those play games online for free websites, where it had the demo. I eventually got to play the ds version and beat it so many times I actually have no idea how many times I had lmao, and then I played the mobile version and beat that one several times too, and finally I'm trying to figure out where I placed my pc port of it as I really would like to play that one for the first time in the full version rather than the demo on an ad ridden website with so many flash games its probably a graveyard by now lmfao, I also would love to get the console versions to look at how different each port is from each other, as from what I've seen so far, there is quite a lot of differences, makes me wonder if Cut content in one is used in another, or exclusive content like the zombie choking animation, which if I recall correctly that it is real, it should be part of the console ports.
3:57 Imagine fighting goofy zombies with adorable plants the whole game then a giant frankenstein zombie steps onto your roof... Actually it would be cool to see a more threatening horde with modern extension/beta zombies and the concept Zombot.
This is going to be a great evening! I'm watching this while completing some half-finished homework, while drinking some warm tea. Today is a good day, and you make it even better. I love your content Tetra!!
i think the zopmbie designs were basically meant as why the have the item like the cone and bucket, but they made it look more simplistic and made them look the same but with the item.
Great video overall, but small correction: 4:24 the "leather jacket" zombie you showed on the concept zombies part of the video was actually just a design for an internal popcap shirt Rich had designed, not an unused variant or anything Still a great video though, liked it tons
4:00 In fact, this strange concept can explain why in the first part, Doctor Zomboss was tall like an ordinary zombie, and then in subsequent games and comics he became much shorter, he is now a little taller than an imp
I thought the elevated part in the backyard was just surrounded by a weird fence, still making it so only catapult plants could shoot over it and giving ladder zombies something to do besides harass tall-nuts. Glad it was changed to the rooftops though, makes more sense overall
Thought I'd share this cause I found it interesting. There's a mod called PvZ2Pak, which changes the graphics to look like PvZ2. The only reason I bring this up is cause there is 1 notable change. All the missing Survival Endless were moved to the Survival page. I know it's not vanilla, but just wanted to share it
Tetra, I'm Not Sure If This Was Correct, But I Think The Scrapped 2 Player Mode In The Concept Art Of The Gameplay You Showed Earlier Was Probably Reworked Into The Vs. Mode On The Console And Nintendo DS Versions.
I believe that the early concept sketches of the aliens and other creatures were originally from a time where Popcap was making a sequel to insanaquarium that involved the 2 screens of the DS that would have the player defend the aliens using plants but things changed so far from insanaquarium that they decided to change the entire game. Now I’m not entire sure about this so…
The "Peanut" or something at 2:25 is most certainly an early design of an imitater - its almanac description makes clear references to him being a veteran.
There technically is a 2 player mode on the Nintendo DS version where the person who plays as the zombies has to chose a team just like the plants and there currency comes from placeable gravestones. On the zombies side they have a 🎯 at each of the lanes and the plants goal was to destroy 3 of them before the zombies can get to crazy dave
the early tracks are all in the DS port of the game, I'm pretty sure I heard them all on that port. since the DS wasn't very powerful they had to cut corners somewhere
At around 3:00 when you mentioned the 2-player mode, it actually did end up being released but only to the console versions where it was easiest to play 2-player.
I’ve played the PC version with a widescreen mod that just gives the limbo page. From that I was able to get into the zen garden before I had unlocked it in story. It was kinda cool to see an empty garden
The 2 player mode actually got implemented in the DS version of the game, one player would choose a lineup of plants and the other would choose zombies, for the plant side it played like normal, the zombies would get brains falling from the sky to send out zombies and the plants would win if they destroyed 3 zombie targets (by shooting ofc) I think the zombies have a different way to get brain but idr it
Dude I can't wait to see what's in Garden warfare. Yes all of these games are great and as equally sad. Because it died and will never return. But I love how great it was back then and I'm just interested in seeing more unused stuff.
Im Guessing The Big Zombie with the electrical pole was an early version of the gargantuar. EDIT: Also the Unusued song are Deemed Non-Ingame Versions by Me and Probably only me, And they're on her channel. EDIT 2: I Soloed Air raid with only Blover and Sun shroom (aside from the 2 doom shrooms for the flag zombies) Thats probably why it was scrapped
ok so the 2 player mode is on the xbox version where you would have to plug in 2 controllers one would be the plant and one would be the zombie it was not online tho.

What's your favorite plant?
(You can't pick Wall-Nut 'cause it's No Nut November )
First
Awesome video
Plantern EZ
Snow Pea. That sound effect is angelic.
Its the best plant
The zombie children actually fits perfectly with the first games goofy but strangely gloomy style. None of the later games has that spesific feel to them, they follow the more comedic and cartoony path.
They would've fit Garden Warfare 1 very well. That game's style was both goofy and gloomy too, but had a larger emphasis on gloominess.
Actually, as a person who played gw1, it has the same feel
Personally, I wish they went more towards creepy.
Isn't the balloon zombie meant to be a kid?
@@Fernsaurno...? He's just ment to be dressed with the "generic" kids clothes to fit with the balloon theme, but he's not a kid.
The fact that old titles are used as Easter eggs now are incredible
Yeaaah I thought so too. Especially Bloom and Doom appeared alot.
Bloom and doom appears everytime its on the card where the plant is
there's has been found new footage from the Mario party beta. Check: ruclips.net/video/H3AQx84QWNg/видео.html

Damn bro was so interested in unused pvz content he watched the video 8 hours before it got uploaded
This was posted just a few minutes ago... how tf did you post this comment 8 hours ago
@@Gilbert101. they are a member
The “double jump” alien could’ve been turned into the ladder zombie because it can go over a tall nut
I would say Pogo Zombie.
I thought the double jump would be the pole zombie but it can jump twice
Maybe it the idea behind imp and giant zombie
There's mods for PvZ that make it way harder. I can't remember if it's Hard or Brutal, but one gives this "Double Jump" to the Pole Vaulter, having him do the jump as normal, and then again before walking slowly as usual

There's also an extension to Watery Graves that was cut. It would have been an extra loop of the ending portion

I'm so glad you're showcasing PvZ, it's one of my favorite game in the whole world!
I am so hyped to see unused Plants and Zombies!
As a huge PvZ nerd this just warms my heart, and I NEED to list all who appeared in later games:
First, about the other enemy types. George Fan stated in multiple interviews that they first had the tower defense mechanics planned with the plants, but couldn't decide on an enemy.

Someone acknowledging the comics? I guess it's more likely than I thought!

4:34 HES HIS HOLDING TEA OUT
17:13 I remember there being a mini game one the DS version of pvz where the level would randomy change the fire rate of the pea shooters you were given as the it got less/more sunny. And I think the level was called sunny day. (I remember everything else except the name lol)
I think on the pool levels there was a feature where plants would overheat in the sun and you had to blow on the mic for them to cool down
What are the odds I literally just got back into this franchise. Great video as always!
I noticed in the short clip of the place holder lawn mower caution bars, that when it blamoed the zombies out of existence, only one of the caution bars disappeared, which I find interesting as it implies that in that early build that you could have the zombies get past your defenses twice before getting game over for each row of the lawn, as in the finished build with the lawn mowers, once the mower was used, it was a one and done, and couldn't be used again in that row for the rest of the level.

That Gymbro zombie is in the final game with a different design. He still uses a telephone pole to attack, and he's called a Gargantuar.
That zombie and the dog-walking one are in the mod called Modern Extension
Nice video! I'd love to see more tower defense games covered in this series.
I thought the elevated part in the backyard was just surrounded by a weird fence, still making it so only catapult plants could shoot over it and giving ladder zombies something to do besides harass tall-nuts. Glad it was changed to the rooftops though, makes more sense overall
No way he's sponsored by gfuel but also a healthy food alternative 😭

Honestly, it's a shame Unsodded was unused in the final game. Sounds like it'd be an interesting challenge, albeit a simple one.
Unsodded came back in PVZ2 but only for Chinese Ver. And its a Brain Buster for Lost City In China
i mean you can still technically play it,its just a whole lot more complicated than just clicking the minigames button.
Tetra, I'm Not Sure If This Was Correct, But I Think The Scrapped 2 Player Mode In The Concept Art Of The Gameplay You Showed Earlier Was Probably Reworked Into The Vs. Mode On The Console And Nintendo DS Versions.
16:35 “BIGGER NUT” got me good
Fun fact:that huge garg thing is the garg in modern extension which smashes plants in a 4x4 area
fun fact: crazy David is actually based off a pop cap employee. every time there’s a party or gathering he always wears a pot in his head.
The other survival endless levels were actually used in the Xbox and PlayStation version of pvz, idk why not in any other version
chomper was a flytrap? i thought he was a grape 💀💀
I believe that the early concept sketches of the aliens and other creatures were originally from a time where Popcap was making a sequel to insanaquarium that involved the 2 screens of the DS that would have the player defend the aliens using plants but things changed so far from insanaquarium that they decided to change the entire game.
Now I’m not entire sure about this so…
4:39 bro skipped every single leg day that he could.
4:37 Boomer!
Wait. WAIT. I ALWAYS thought that main instrument in Graze the Roof was piano. And now i cant find this early version anywhere.
@OfficialTetraBitGaming491 shut up scammer
2:10 Many of these plants came later in PVZ 2 as well in the form of Intensive carrot and dandelion.
The early zombot design makes sense why the early version(s) had organic legs instead of robotic it was essentially a Giant Frankenstein
alternate universe plants vs aliens
The "Peanut" or something at 2:25 is most certainly an early design of an imitater - its almanac description makes clear references to him being a veteran.
16:32 🤨📸
Also the zombie looking infront is also in modern extension
16:43
These eyes will give me nightmares
8:31 field of hopes and dreams just playing in the background
oooooOOOOOOOOOOO
The Double Jumper Zombie Could Have Been Pogo Zombie
There technically is a 2 player mode on the Nintendo DS version where the person who plays as the zombies has to chose a team just like the plants and there currency comes from placeable gravestones. On the zombies side they have a 🎯 at each of the lanes and the plants goal was to destroy 3 of them before the zombies can get to crazy dave
The early unused version of Graze the Roof also doesn't loop properly. It restarts the loop way too early then finishes the whole song.
I'd recommend covering the plants vs zombies 2 unused content, since that game has a ton to offer
I wasn't going to think that they will be a second PvZ video on this channel
4:38 massive garg imp? :0
I'd like to see a closer look at what alternate designs the plants would've had for this game.
Bloom & Doom is the name of the company that makes the plants didn't know that before it was the name of the game
the early tracks are all in the DS port of the game, I'm pretty sure I heard them all on that port. since the DS wasn't very powerful they had to cut corners somewhere
7:10 mark rober moment
Recommended: try a PVZ2 lost bits video😀
Love the Deltarune soundtrack in this video considering Laura Shigihara sings the ending songs for both Plants vs Zombies and Deltarune.
At around 3:00 when you mentioned the 2-player mode, it actually did end up being released but only to the console versions where it was easiest to play 2-player.
Yeah, but it's not the same idea I don't think
The plants vs zombies game had better time management than FANAF Security Breach
14:29 NAH BRO THEY JUST DUMPED THE TF2 DISPENSER
Zombotony is the name of one of the modes in the game
I’ve played the PC version with a widescreen mod that just gives the limbo page. From that I was able to get into the zen garden before I had unlocked it in story. It was kinda cool to see an empty garden
2:56 The unused 2-player mode was brought over to the home console versions (somewhat)
The name Air Raid shows up as the final minigame on the DS version, but it's way different, more like a Cuphead boss.
4:32 blacks and whites zombees for brainz :0
some older ones i remember even the free vision with the book in daves shop my whole family was playing this
You should do pvz 2 and the garden warfare pages
1:28 ah yes, insane aquarium
not insaniquarium, insane aquarium
"this mini-game boils down to balancing how many of *DEEZ NUTS* you want to keep around
-tetra
(P.D:Love your content)
5:04 The Baby JR Buff Zombie
a youtuber named xplodin apples put the unused zombotany track over the normal zombotany level i think you should check it out tetrabitgaming
The old conehead and buckethead designs were so good, I wish they used them.
Originally PvZ started as a sequel to insanacquarium on the DS, however it later changed to the PvZ we know and love.
13:50 when a zombie is on the elevated portion, will they fall when they get to the end of it?
I played a ver when i was a kid, (might have been the demo) where the original michael jackson zombie was used rather than the current dance zombie
Do the whole series if you can ❤️
The 2 player mode actually got implemented in the DS version of the game, one player would choose a lineup of plants and the other would choose zombies, for the plant side it played like normal, the zombies would get brains falling from the sky to send out zombies and the plants would win if they destroyed 3 zombie targets (by shooting ofc) I think the zombies have a different way to get brain but idr it

I think it would make a good video if you find unused content in Everhood.
7:59 am I the only one thinking this shouldve been used in either of the garden warfare games?
3:04
There is a 2 player mode in the console versions
Hell yeah more PvZ content!
Im Guessing The Big Zombie with the electrical pole was an early version of the gargantuar.
EDIT: Also the Unusued song are Deemed Non-Ingame Versions by Me and Probably only me, And they're on her channel.
EDIT 2: I Soloed Air raid with only Blover and Sun shroom (aside from the 2 doom shrooms for the flag zombies) Thats probably why it was scrapped
'Something came in the mail today' 20:05
The endless survival version is actually on the mobile version
18:02 *Beeg Nut lol*
The unused zombies where in the modern extension version of Plants Vs Zombies
Tetra you drop this video on my birthday
I think the thing at 2:08 is a beholder. It's a monster in D&D.
To think that Plants vs. Zombies was nearly a deck-builder before they suddenly exploded 10-15 years later
The 2 player mode is an actual thing, I would play it with my siblings all the time, it was on a disk but we lost it
I'm surprised the zomboss in zomboss idea wasn't used, it would seem like zomboss to do that
Correction, the 2 player mode did indeed make it in but only in the console versions
The thing is the reason he covered it is because he is focusing on the pc version, and on the pc version it did go unused.
ok so the 2 player mode is on the xbox version where you would have to plug in 2 controllers one would be the plant and one would be the zombie it was not online tho.
Proto & final are epic
I think a the escapists lost bits would be cool
6:32 Both versions I really like
Imagine aliens were the main villains and we had to play onions vs aliens
20:03 He made a Deez Nuts Joke lol
