Before Angry Birds 2 started development, Rovio Stockholm was already toying with certain concepts/ideas that would eventually find their way into AB2. One of those being the "fake-2D" character rigs which Joakim Svärling showed off back in 2018, featuring a Markus-styled Minion Pig.

An image of Becky Jones' portfolio on her website, mainly the page where she talks about her playtesting experience with Angry Birds back when it was published under Chillingo/Clickgamer. Mainly her suggesting stuff like trajectory/bird trails and the "pinch-zoom" camera. "I first got my hands on an early build of the game when there were no animations on the birds. Assigned to look after it as External Producer, I was to work closely with the developer Rovio to help bring Angry Birds to market. Yet despite this version of the game being an early one, the wicked laughs of the characters had me grinning from ear-to-ear. As I started flinging birds from the catapult to hit the pigs, I knew this was going to be a fun game to work on. It was to be released under Chillingo’s mass market brand Clickgamer. Like a book publisher works with a writer to help them refine and edit their book to the right standard for launch, the role of a games publisher is to work with the developer to help them prepare for release, advising on how to polish the game to AAA standard and supporting with marketing. I worked closely with Rovio providing detailed feedback to the development team, playing through the various builds of the game, advising on gameplay and platform specific best practice, and flagging bugs. At that point the iPhone had been out for less than a year and a half, and a lot of developers were new to the user experience expectations on the platform. Some key recommendations regarding gameplay included putting in trajectories and ghosting of trails to increase the player’s ability to learn how to beat the level. Regarding platform specifics, the inclusion of gestures like pinch-zoom reduced player frustration and aligned with user interaction expectations on the iPhone."

Becky Jones' portfolio talks about multiple interesting things relating to her involvement with AB Classic. Mainly being an early playtester for the game back when it was published under Chillingo, and was the first person to ever sew a plush toy of an Angry Bird.

On Ari Pulkkinen's 2011 AriTunes gamescom portfolio, there is an Angry Birds-themed track around the ending portion that was never used in any piece of known media. It is currently not known what this song was gonna be used for.

After the second trailer for the Super Mario Bros. Movie released in November 2022, an official Illumination ad captioned it "No Gumba can stop the Mario Bros." It is unknown if this is simply a typo or if the person in charge really thought this was how "Goomba" is spelled.

It’s a full page art spread of Knuckles leaning on a pillar and looking out at the gorgeous nature of Angel Island. The title reads “A short comic about Knuckles”. The credits read “Art by @AeroArtwork, Script and Typesetting by @Saltydkdan” (Each person’s Bluesky account is tagged in the original text of the post)

A spread of art showcases the events that transpired across Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles. Knuckles is seen seeing off Sonic and Tails in their plane (the Tornado) as he gently palms the side of the Master Emerald. Only the back of his head is shown as he stares at the two fly off. Yellow text boxes surround Knuckles and read “Now that all those shenanigans with Sonic and Robotnik are over I can finally take some time to myself and get back to my true purpose. Guarding the last artifact of my ancestors- And defending the grounds that my people once called home. It’s not always easy… I have to be vigilant, always on high alert…”

I wrote a comic about Knuckles the Echidna, everyone's favorite Treasure Hunter, and sworn protector of the Master Emerald!

(Showing the tcrf.net page for Rovio Classics: Angry Birds.) (Also known as: Rovio Classics: AB (Android), Red's First Flight (iOS, 2023); Developer: Rovio; Publisher: Rovio; Platform: Android, iOS) "[...], it aims to be as close of an experience to how the game was in 2012 as possible. No power-ups, no Mighty League, no episodes past Surf and Turf... you can't get much more "classic" than this."

Sonic in a battle stance, heavily damaged with cuts and bruises. He holds a golden ring as he stands in the shadow of Eggman/Robotnik. There’s blue text at the bottom reading “No matter how scary the world becomes, all you need is one ring. Don’t ever give up.”

In these doomed times, what we need most is the drive to push forward.
