Prerelease Info

Unused Level

Due to a bug, the game freezes after finishing Level 31, rendering Level 32 - the game's final stage - unused. This level can be accessed with GameShark code 011F90CB.

The fact that such a game-stopping issue exists in the copy sent to Nintendo would explain why the game didn't get released...

Unused Graphics

A clear screen for the game's fourth world. Due to the aforementioned bug, this screen is never shown. Entering the password shown here takes you to the credits.

Unused Passwords

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Do the second and third passwords have any additional effects?

CLEAR

Takes you to the credits. This is the password given upon beating the game's final level, as seen above... or at least it would be if not for the aforementioned bug.

HAPPY

Also takes you to the credits. Upon returning to the main menu, the ball in the logo will close its eyes.

FUNKY

Also takes you to the credits. Upon returning to the main menu, the ball in the logo will start blinking.
