Fly

The fly, sometimes thought to be a moth, was a passive, decorative creature that was originally intended to be in Hexen but was cut before the final release.

It is present in the Retail Store Beta for PC and the Sega Saturn port.

Appearance and behaviour
The fly is only known to be available in the Retail Store Beta and Sega Saturn ports of Hexen. The fly is located in the portal room within Shadow Wood.

The fly harmlessly flutters around the portal room.

Implementation
Four sprites exist of the fly in the Beta IWAD with the sprite name of AFLY.

In the final Hexen IWAD, the only remnant of the fly left is a sound definition in the SNDINFO lump.

No evidence of the fly has been found in the released Hexen source code.

Thanks
Thanks to Mattfrie1 at the Doomworld forums for researching the fly.
