Little Nightmares - Cut and early content explored

This video explores the cut content of the First Little Nightmares game. I go back to the Hunger build and look at all the available trailers and also check out the gamescom kitchen demo as well concept art and unused things (like the wax bellman). I hope you enjoy my video.
If you like this video be sure to check out the one I made on the sequel!

I'm sad that the wax bellman got cut from both games:( he seems like a really interesting character! Like the area you would first see him in would most likely be a hotel for the guests seems like a really cool idea. I really hope the game developers add him in some day

Kinda wish they kept the part at 6:50 in the final game. It much scarier, and it makes more sense that there’s an elevator to the meat grinder area because in the final game there’s only a little shaft and no actual door in the freezer so how do the chefs even get the frozen meat??

[@gardenerguy2.065]

I think this shows some lore. Lore that says that The Maw used to be very different in the past. Perhaps back then, the children would go to get the food for the chefs that used to be in the kitchen.

@BruhBoiJr I like your theory and all but I gotta drop a bombshell of information Commas exist,

[@gardenerguy2.065]

Actually, I think he could still be alive. In fact, I beleive that there may be even more chefs. Remember, The Maw is a very vast location. There are many secrets behind the doors of places we may never get to see. It could be possible that he is just behind some of the doors in the kitichen, working with his own sibling, or perhaps siblings.

[@breaker1196]

2:18 the leech model does have legs they just dont use them, and its hard asf to see ingame, but you can see it in the model! 4:41 im not sure about this but i think that concept was also used in the kitchen level, there was a chance where when you got the key and went down, you'd see a nome running inside of the food closet place, then a nome stuck in a jar. you can break him free and hug him, but he doesnt do much. 5:05 theres a part in the last level of the game where you jump across food plates after escaping the twins, i'm pretty sure this is reused in that part. 5:21 freezer was probably reused in the kitchen where you get the meat and make a meat swingy thingy and swing into the vent, i dont know though. 5:43 that same exact cart model is used inside the second part of where you meet the eye. 5:47 this section was probably reused where you jumped ontop of the food plates, im not sure tho 6:22 the whistle idea was reused in LN2 where you call six, its very helpful :) 8:35 just a theory of mine, but what if bellman moved by hanging like a puppet? that would make him VERY scary in the game, but it was probably cut due to bellman being too fast. 8:49 another theory of mine, what if this was a cut area for the final level? this could be another version of the food plate jumper, it would have been AWESOME for this to be in the final cut of the game. ( 6:30 BONUS : unused concept of the kitchen where you first meet the chef. ) i dont know why i spent so long on this for no reason lol

[@mikecherry7548]

The whistle thing kinda sounds like the calling mechanic but most bosses don’t hear you when you call six. I don’t even think you can call in the teacher scenes

[@breaker1196]

@@mikecherry7548 they mostly dont hear you cause they make mono whisper to six when monsters are around.

A lot of this content is really cool, I get that it was likely cut for a reason but it would be cool to see a finished version of what could have been. Another thing they removed to keep the rating as it is was more gruesome deaths for Six btw, pretty interesting that the game was originally going to go that way.

[@bag3378]

ik im super late, but i REALLY wish they kept the hotel area for the bellman in the game 8:39, it would have been a cool concept for like maybe a big hotel lobby somewhere with these little rooms, it just would have been great, and it would have made the game longer, and it seems like in 8:33 the bellman was going to be the hotel staff member? giving out the cards to the rooms?

[@trenth.7053]

Im a little late, but I still hope we can eventually get a game that takes place in a hotel. Like you would either start from the top and go down or start from the bottom and go up. Having LN3 take place in SEVERAL places kind of makes it seem overcrowded imo, and uses ideas that easily could've been developed into their own individual games. Such as a carnival, or the Necropolis.

It might’ve happened when Six was taken to the Maw by the Ferryman, also LN deserves another comic, it would probably show that in the prologue, of how the chefs, And the Janitor taken to the Maw.

@@raptorjesus2516 If you read towards the beginning of the video, the Maw is described as an "underwater resort" for the powerful elite. Basically like a luxury cruise. On cruises, they usually have spas (bathhouse concept), buffets, nightclubs (not mentioned in the game, but when they are talking about these guests indulging in their whims), etc. And the fact that the game itself is inspired by Spirited Away makes all the sense in the world.
