-===Pre-Release===

-A handful of pitches have been made to several different studios throughout the game's development.
+|
+{| style="text-align:center; border: 2px solid; vertical-align:top; line-height: 1.2;"
-Beginning in the game's pre-release period, several characters were illustrated as pitches. Those with a star present above their portraits were to be included in the final game, although some of these characters have yet to appear in any form.

+|[[Gunvolt]]
-{{Quote|Bc tbh, I feel like it’d be easier to make a moveset for Dr. Fetus. And that’s not a weakness of your skills. It’s just Dr. Fetus has more to pull from than Meatboy does unfortunately.|Trevor's thoughts on Meat Boy and Dr. Fetus.}}
+|}
-Originally a 2008 Flash game, the ''Meat Boy'' series is a infamously hard platformer, where you control the titular Meat Boy to navigate through very danger-ridden areas to save Bandage Girl from the clutches of Dr. Fetus. The game later gained sequels in the form of ''Super Meat Boy'' and the upcoming ''Super Meat Boy Forever'', developed by Team Meat.
+|
+{| style="text-align:center; border: 2px solid; vertical-align:top; line-height: 1.2;"
-Although a sprite does exist of Meat Boy outside the Pre-Release collage, it is currently unknown about Team Meat's thoughts on his inclusion. Due to Trevor later stating he would personally thinking that Dr. Fetus would be overall easier to make a moveset for, the chances for Meat Boy as a playable character is less likely.

+|- style="height: 50px; border-top: none; background-color: #ffffff;"
-===Castle Crashers===
+|[[Voltar]]
-''Castle Crashers'' is a 2008 beat 'em up sidescroller by The Behemoth. A pitch for the game's knights was released, revealing that the playable representative from the game was going to be "Green Knight" brandishing what appears to be the game's "Thin Sword" (the knight's starting weapon).
+|}
+|}
-It was revealed by Lowe Bros. that the characters' inclusion was neither supported nor dismissed by The Behemoth. This is possibly due to the game's character designs and music tracks being developed by several different people from the Newgrounds community, several of whom no longer have any web presence.
-===Octane===
+===MonCraft Character===
+MonCraft is a monster tamer / survival hybrid game based on Pokemon and Minecraft being worked on by Lowe Bros alongside Indie Pogo. In July 2020, Trevor commented that once the game is done, or close to, a MonCraft character will be included as a fighter in Indie Pogo.
-[[File:Octane.png|thumb|180x180px]]
+==Stages==
-''Rocket League'' is a game by Psyonix, with gameplay that can be described as "soccer with cars". A pitch for the game's default car (known as Octane) was made, likely in response to a meme started by the YouTuber Alpharad in regards to the indie platform fighter, Rivals of Aether (which is represented in ''Indie Pogo'').
+===Kickstarter List===
+Also included in the Kickstarter was a list of recruited series that will be represented by stages. 4 stages were advertised as such, with [[INK]] being included base game and the Nitrome stage being scrapped in favour of [[Yolk]].
-Although Octane has been neither confirmed nor deconfirmed, it is unlikely it will make it into Indie Pogo at this point, due to Psyonix being bought by Epic Games.

-[[File:Spelunker.png|thumb|left|255px]]

-===Spelunker===
+|
-''Spelunky'' is a 2008 platformer developed by Derek Yu. A pitch for the game's protagonist, Spelunker, was made. It is unclear what its developer thought about the pitch, though it appears to have been unsuccessful.
+{| style="text-align:center; border: 2px solid; vertical-align:top; line-height: 1.2;"
-===Nicalis Cameos===
+|- style="border-bottom: none; background-color: #dddddd;"

+| style="width: 100px" |[[File:0-Locked-portrait.png|center|frameless|105x105px|link=Sorona]]
-A official collaboration between Lowe Bros. and Bit, several characters owned by Nicalis were displayed in an ''Indie Pogo'' aesthetic. Though met with great enthusiasm by fans, this pitch appears to have been unsuccessful.
+|- style="height: 50px; border-top: none; background-color: #ffffff;"
+|[[Sorona]]
-Although not directly deconfirmed, due to controversies surrounding Nicalis in late 2019, it is unlikely that any franchise owned directly by Nicalis will appear in ''Indie Pogo'' currently.
