Subpages

Debug Menu Interesting snippets from all parts of development can be found here!

Spaceball

Unused Sprites

A flowerpot with a face, an apple, and a star all go unused. The apple was most likely replaced with the rice ball, while the star may have appeared when you hit a ball correctly. Some frames of the flowerpot have odd shading, though this could likely be blushing.

Unused Cues

There are two unused cues for Spaceball; an offbeat high ball and a very fast normal ball.

Note that the very fast cue is silent.

Bunny Hop

There are two unused sprites for an A button and D-pad within the Bunny Hop sprite sheets. The game might have been planned to have the A button and D-pad interchangeably, similar to Rhythm Tweezers.

Debug Mode

This mode has tons of things not accessible without it. There's an early Remix 1 with Tap Trial and no Rhythm Tweezers, a second version of Rap Women, and an early Rhythm Test. To see all its contents, click the link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=u0JxoSeliqI

Space Dance

• 

  The unused English letters here can spell out any number of words, including "down", "punch", and "right".

• 

  Japanese words are displayed during the tutorial, and they mean essentially the same thing as the unused English text. For example, "パンチ" means "punch."

Tap Trial

There are a few unused "giraffes" meant for the the different versions of Tap Trial, but only the original Tap Trial has one. Remix 7 has a dragon, and Tap Trial 2 has what could be a camel.

Also, the Pigs from Remix 7 have sprites for jump taps and triple taps. The girl that is used in this version winks if you do a jump tap correctly. These sprites can be seen by editing the memory. To do it, change the value at memory address 0x089D1CA1 to 0x02.

Karate Man

Unused Background

Unused graphics that go unused in Karate Man, can be activated if 0x089CFF05 is changed to 0x01 in a memory viewer.

Toss Boys

Located within Toss Boy's soundbank are some unused SFX. Come new SFX, comes new combos. These include: Aka-Chan saying "Ao-Kun" in a louder, longer fashion; Aka-Chan saying "Kii-Yan" in a faster manner; Aka-Chan saying "Kii-Yan" in a louder, longer fashion; Aka-Chan's 3 Grunts (Hoomph); Kii-Yan saying "Aka-Chan" in a louder, longer fashion; Kii-Yan saying "Ao-Kun" in a louder, longer fashion; A person, possibly Aka-Chan, saying "Hey!"; A person, possibly Ao-Kun, saying something similar to "achi".
