It seems that the Moon was originally planned as open world game. On one of the oldest arts shown a variety of ways and bases, but in the end the game came out very linear. however resource contain many data or levels which are not used in the game.

old art:

for example, that level map from release version:

funny, but the side corridors are still in the game:

and look at this art, you can see the similarities?

Another unused levels:

Good find! It's awesome when games have unused levels. Who knows why the game ended up being linear, maybe they had troubles with the open world scheme.

I found three nearly identical locations, which are not used in the game

garage (alpha base)
you can see this location through the window at the base, but you can not get there
