| This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: If anyone can open these files on Unreal Engine 4 or is able to modify the game code (main file) to enable the debug menu and camera please contact me on Discord (Ro#3717) or my YouTube (youtube.com/RoGamer97). |
Ninjala is a free-to-play multiplayer action game that received lukewarm reviews, with many praising the multiplayer, gameplay, and art style, but criticized the story mode. The game was widely compared to Splatoon due to its style and gameplay.
Unused Models
On the Season 1 of the game there are models and textures with Olympics logo and "TOKYO 2020" written on it. These models/textures were never used in the game because the Olympics were postponed to 2021. It is unknown on which map it would've been used.

Debug Content
On the game files, you can find folders under names of Debug, DebugInput, DebugFlow, DebugMenu, and other debug stuff found in input files.

Debug Menus
Judging by the folder name and content inside of it it is confirmed that Ninjala has a debug menu however the folder only exists on Season 1 therefore it seems that the debug menu was removed on later versions. Inside of the folder there is a lot of content about the pieces of the game so we can assume the debug menu is huge and can do a lot of stuff.
Some stuff about debug menu can be found in another file, probably related to the inputs of the debug menu.

Debug Camera
There is a folder related to inputs and their actions, in few of them you can see stuff about Debug Menu and Debug Camera. The Debug Camera is probably some sort of camera that can fly around in your control or related to objects/characters.
