* WackyParentResponsibleChild: Mr. Chipper and Tyke. While Mr. Chipper is no doubt a prodigious inventor who loves his son, he's definitely not all there which, based on Tyke's facial expressions, is not lost on the younger beaver. Tyke has none of his father's unstable tendencies (as noted by The Termite King), and never retaliates against any of the other animals even when a squid insults him or the birds capture him.

* SilentProtagonist: Tyke never speaks a word, but if you talk to the group around the campfire after falling under the bridge, he presumably suggests the group climb out of the pit using the rope, based on the squid's reaction, though his dialogue isn't visible to the player.

* DummiedOut: Looking in the game data hints that there are supposed to be two extra versions released, Trial and Super. The Trial version is obvious as it limits the amount of stuff you can build (there's an unused graphic that says "Full Version Only", most likely placed on the later blueprints), but the Super version is a complete mystery. It's likely used for a later update that never happened, or it was dropped in favor of the Plus version.
** There's also some unused graphics that allows you to adjust the volume of the game, even allowing you to turn it off. It may seem like the game originally allows you to use your music player while playing the game, as some apps allow you to play your own tunes instead of the default tracks, but there's some unused text that says "For the best experience, please silence any other music already playing on your phone!". This may be before Scott figured out how to disable the music player while the game is running.

The game was made in 2013 for [[UsefulNotes/IOSGames iOS]] and [[AndroidGames Android]], and came in two versions, Full and Plus. The Full version is free while the Plus version is a paid app that allows you to get special items early in advance. The game was also pitched to Steam Greenlight, but it was pulled a day later after Scott received scathing criticism regarding the art style and how the characters looked like "animatronic dolls". Those same critiques was later used to make ''Five Nights at Freddy's'', the game that put Scott on the map for good.

''Chipper & Sons Lumber Co.'' is a [[ConstructionAndManagementGames construction and management game]] produced by [[Creator/ScottCawthon Scott Cawthon]] in the days before VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys. In this happy little game, you play as Tyke, a young beaver who is just starting out in the lumber business, who must chop down trees, collect and sell wood (allowing your father, Chipper to turn it into lumber at his mill), and buy or find various items to make your business easier to run.
