    So finally I decided to verify what people say and opened my game prototype with Reflector
    to see... EVERYTHING including Debug log statement :eek:

    Is it really like that, or only free Unity version does that?
    Can I at least remove my Debug notes and log messages from compiled version?

    Also, I noticed that some scripts, server specific are included in the client side build.
    I am quite certain, none of them or any of variables is used in client, and yet they are part
    of client build.

    This topic has been answered multiple times on the forums and Answers, but in essence, yeah, that's pretty much all there is too it. I can take any non-obfuscated Unity project and read through what the programmer did, pull out textures and models and sound effects.

    Do editor scripts get included in there?

    I just need some time to let it sink...
    Probably Debug.Logs in WebPlayer were the most shocking part to me... aren't we suppose strive for smaller builds here?
    Is there a software to prepare source C# for compilation by removing Debug and comments from code?

    you strive for what you want. If you tell the webplayer to output a debug log it will do so into the webplayer log file and thats for a reason: you want to be able to get such informations in case users have problems, don't you? Because blind guess debugging will never wokr out :)

    And why would I want to do this if I have sources ?
    Seriously, why would I want all my source TODOs and NOTEs and comments and Debug.Logs be embedded in compiled package and available for everybody to read?

    Comments aren't included. You want Debug.Log to work for the reasons dreamora said. Debug.Log isn't for notes and comments; if you're using it for that, you shouldn't be.

    I've been using Debug to trace variables and program flow, but will have to find other way of doing it.
    Also will have to develop some scrambling of strings holding important data.
