cookie clicker unused assets

i find the unused sprites in the cookie clicker spritesheet so interesting

the ones i find most interesting are the 2 full sets of unused tiers (the one thats like pale green with red and turquoise around it and the one thats like the "level 10" achievement icons but pink)

in almost all of the sets, there is a triple cursor glove icon, a cursor pointer icon, a bottle, a cookie, and a kitten.*

(there is not a triple cursor glove icon in the synergy upgrades**, the unshackled upgrades, or the dragon auras. there is not a kitten in the statue achievements(the "bake ___ cookies with only ___" achievement icons), or the synergy upgrades.)

its clear that the unused sets are going to be used for SOMETHING, as they have had icons added to them with every new building that has been added.

note that in the plain set of icons, the three cursor glove icon is instead the icon used for the achievements Uncanny Clicker, Neverclick and True Neverclick.

also, there is a few random assorted icons, such as the business kitten and 4 unused heavenly(?) cookies.

well, i dont have much else to say. ill add a link the image i used and the asterisk points now.

*in the bank minigame icons, all listed icons are different tiers of headquarters.

**in the Synergy Upgrades 1 icons, there IS an icon for the triple cursor glove icon. however, it is simply the same sprite as the Mooncandy tier.
