Trivia

- Before the rooms were redesigned, all of the rooms looked similiar/were the exact same as the Christmas Race Build.
- It was first called Desert in the January Monthly Build and despite having final name in Desert Playtest, it was temporarily called Badland in PT_Eggplantv15 build.
- The Noise originally had a Gimmick in older demos of Oregano Desert, where he would have Boulder Traps set up, or would attempt to push a rock onto Peppino's head to mess him up.
- In earlier builds, mainly "PT time challenge 1", some of the rooms look more like Ancient from Demo 2.
