** Weeds have a dummied out upgrade path, as seen in SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Transistor\Content\Game\Units\Priest.xml: "Old, Pretty Broken Priest Upgrades": Level 2 would go invulnerable or something when hit by all weapons, and Level 3 would probably just clone itself indefinitely, instead of only when damaged like in the released game.

* DummiedOut: Version 4.0 versions of most enemies exist, but they aren't that much of an improvement, Weeds only get 20 more HitPoints, for instance. It's been [[https://www.reddit.com/r/transistor/comments/27pn4k/a_quick_note_on_the_subject_of_rank_4_process/ speculated]] it's some kind of FridgeBrillance, that Red wasn't even facing the Process's final form.

** In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmlnUCK9oWI&feature=youtu.be early gameplay footage]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTp4MLtJqV4 concept art]], the Camerata had five members. In the final product, this was reduced to four. Of the entire group, only Royce still looks like he did in the early concepts. All of them [[ManInWhite dressed in white]] and had black hair. The fifth member resembled a MadScientist with a bulky body and crimson shades and was either their leader or TheManBehindTheMan. Presumably, Royce and the fifth member's roles were merged in the final version, while Grant took the role as the Camerata's leader instead.

** According to the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SL2Pk2jP_6s Transistor documentary]] (around the 11-minute mark), the first concept for the game was that the man inside the Transistor was originally the main character with the roles reversed - he was trying to revive Red, his singer love. Art Director Jen Zee's concept art of Red wielding the Transistor was so impressive that the team made a 180 on the story. Red's Superuser form is a remnant of that version.

* ArtImitatesArt[=/=]{{Expy}}: The art style of Transistor takes a lot of visual cues from the work of Austrian symbolist painter Gustav Klimt (1862 – 1918). The character Red may in fact be a reference to "Red Hilda", a model who has appeared in so many of Klimt's works that the choice to use her image as the protagonist would be very fitting.

* FanNickname: Since the man inside the Transistor is never named at any point in the game, numerous {{Fan Nickname}}s have popped up for him.
** Blue, to match the ThemeNaming of Red.
** Breach(), after the function() he's the trace of.
** Boxer, since the game's source code refers to him as this.
** Mr. Nobody, since he refers to himself as this in the game.
** Auden, since the game's source code ''also'' refers to him as this.
