Funkytown Easter Egg
There is an easter egg referencing Funkytown by Lipps Inc.. The player should hover their mouse over each button on the main menu in this order:
- Hall of Fame
- Hall of Fame
- Classic Game
- Hall of Fame
- Survival Game
- Survival Game
- Hall of Fame
- Options
- More Games (or Help)
- Quit Game
The sound each button makes on-hover is in tune with the song's main riff. Then LET'S GO with the four main space ships fly by and the screen flashes in a rainbow sequence for a brief moment.

Unused Graphics
Originally, AstroPop Deluxe was protected by a basic name/serial protection.. but in later revisions (including the one currently downloadable on PopCap's site), this was changed, and is now a 60-minute trial of the fully registered version, where the actual game executable is ran by a 'wrapper' executable... which means that the dialog about unregistered versions that still exist in the later revisions end up unused.
Early graphics for the bricks in color blind mode.
