Information on alpha or previous versions - alexbaker20155 - 09-14-2019
Hi dear Soma fans. I need your help to clear out one issue that's been bugging me for a long time.
Am I right thinking that the vast majority of all data on alpha version, previous plot have been taken from the archive _supersecret.rar right as the main source?
I mean, that's the main source of information for us as the fans,right?
The information about the old plots was taken from design documents from that archive?
Or there were other sources of information? (not like trailers, more like leaks)
Thanks for reading this and sorry for stealing your time

There's also this video that has a lot of information about the earlier versions.

Edit: I guess this originally came from the supersecret file so you might've seen it.

So you can prove that all information about early versions of game came mainly from dev's archive right?All concept arts, design docs, early stage videos all were from that archive ,correct?)

Well I can't prove anything. I'm sure there are some items out there that didn't come from the archive, but I don't remember any right now.
Edit: Someone on a Discord server wanted me to relay this video to you:

Yeah that second video is the bees knees. He talks about the video and content in the secret RAR file but also about unused assets in the game files.
