Debug Menu

In-game, turn to either side and pause the game while Ecco is facing the camera. Then, press Right, B, C, B, C, Down, C, Up. A screen titled "The Dolphin" will appear, and you'll be able to change some settings.

• Stage number: Goes from 0 to 27. Change this and press Start to be sent to the corresponding level. Some of them are meant to be used in cutscenes and might freeze the game.
• Sound number: Goes from 0 to 65. A sound test. Choose a number, and press A to listen to the song with that number, and B to listen to the sound effect with that number.
• Music tempo: Goes from -120 to 120. 0 is the default value, and plays the current song at normal tempo. Other values just add or remove BPM to the normal tempo of the song. Some values will work incorrectly for some songs.
• Message number: Goes from 0 to 54. Choose a number and press A or B to view that message. 22, 31 and 32 are empty and 43 gives you invincibility.
• Unlimited life: If set to 1, your damage and oxygen meters will not decrease.
• Teleporter: Change the X and Y values, and when you press Start and you will be teleported into that place. It will be canceled if you choose out-of-bounds coordinates. If you get yourself inside a wall, there'll be no way out, as you can't turn around to face the camera and perform the cheat again.
• MasterVol: Master Volume setting.
• RedbookVol: CD audio (music) volume setting.
• FM Volume: FMV cutscene volume setting.
