	Some other things to note. The monsters here all seem to be borrowed from ''[[Andy in Asunderland]]'', unless that game borrowed them from here. More pertinent is the small non-game ''[[Fireworks]]'', which appears to be a test for a special effect or interstitial scene for use in KonoTest, much like the cutscenes and level introductions in Levy's ''Asunderland''. Clearly Levy had big plans for KonoTest, before he met one stumbling block too many. It's a shame, but an illustrative one in many ways.		Some other things to note.

 In December 2011 a passing reference to Game-Maker in the TIGSource forums led to direct communication with Levy. On December 30th he provided the sum of his surviving Game-Maker work, which was then added to the archive.

 Although the venture was quickly abandoned, likely due to some technical awkwardness, the surviving material is rather miraculous. The environments look lush. The character, Mogo, is polished in design and vibrant in animation, full of an effortless charisma. The whole effort shows how much visual design can elevate a project.
