Lightbulb Cryptic Code

I heard of somebody that made a program that can extract all the music samples form the Frequency© cd in .wav format. When I asked him how he said that in the levels.ark file there was a string of binary occasionally seperated by a string of 77777777's, it turns out the 7s seperated different audio files, which were really wav.

Anyway, knowing this I used a hex editor to look at the other files, in a file called ROOT.ARK I found 150k of python type sourcecode. Also the weird thing about it is, it LOOKS like the game's min code (complete with a ton of comments), but it appears to look like PC code. It has a section for choosing your input device (joystick/keyboard/mouse) and renderer (renderware/3dfx/null/directx/opengl), so this cant be PS2 code. Could this possibly by accident be left over from a canceled PC version? Is there any way I can compile this to see what it does?

If anybody here has the Frequency cd(and knows what I am talking about), can you check too?
