Debug Menu
Enter the password IMCARY (programmer Cary Hara), then press Start. Open the password screen again, enter MAUIMM, then press Start. A sound effect will confirm success, and Debug added as the third option on the title screen. Memory address $FF2180 is set to $01.
In the debug menu, Enemy Coll(ision) toggles whether Donald is invincible to most enemies and hazards.
Deactivating Game Flow will make the game return to the main menu after a level is cleared.
Map Mode will bring up a non-playable view of the map. Note that you still can be killed in the rising lava/acid levels.
Finally, the Level option changes the level the game starts on. Choosing a Babaluau Baby bonus level and then clearing it will send you to the next one or back to the menu after the fourth level. Losing the bonus levels in this way will count as a death.
In addition, the debug menu enables the following commands during gameplay:
- Hold A, press Start: kills Donald
- Hold B, press Start: (unknown effect)
- Hold C, press Start: advance to next area
Alternate Map Mode
The Map Mode described in the previous section brings up a non-playable view of the map. However, memory address $FF2181 is reserved for a different type of Map Mode, one that can be used during gameplay. To toggle it on, use Pro Action Replay code $FF2180:xx01, where xx is whether you want the debug menu, above, enabled with it (00 = off, 01 = on).
While paused, hold A and move the D-Pad to place Donald anywhere on the map. Press C to advance one frame. Beware that moving to certain parts of some maps will crash the game.
