According to certain files found in the OSX version of OE-Cake, the developers had plans to make a much more detailed and capable engine. There are a number of cut tools that did not make the current version.

BLUR[]

Blur

Not quite sure what this tool would have done. Soften edges, perhaps?

CROP[]

Crop

This tool seems to be the result of a series of tools for particle selection, perhaps to crop certain pre-selected particles?

LASSO[]

Lasso

Another particle selection tool. Too bad this feature didn't make it to the final game, it would have made for a very different engine...

MARQUEE[]

Marquee

Area select tool for particle selection.

LINE[]

Line

First of a series of advanced drawing tools. This one *really* would have made the game different, I don't know why it wasn't added.

OVAL[]

Oval

A useful tool for arbitrary ellipses.

TEXT[]

Type

Presumably, would have wrote letters using particles. Could be a useful feature if they found a way to consolidate resolution, especially because a custom fontset could be used to mass-produce small shapes.

ZOOM[]

Zoom

Oh boy what a loss. OE-Cake's greatest impediment was it's small map size and lack of a viewport. This tool alone could have made a powerful engine even more so, after performance has been taken into account. Many of the features of this tool can be accessed with the scrollFlag in the Parameters.
