Guest Cavi Report post Posted December 13, 2002 A developer would run the debug mode when they wanted to tweak things here and there and fix bugs. It's used near the end of the development cycle during the debugging process. In regards to the debug mode we see in the games we play, that is basically the sort of options the developers had. Change gameplay parameters like infinite lives, spawn certain characters, etc. In this sense, think of it as a cheats menu. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bravesfan Report post Posted December 13, 2002 Using a cheat code, may also grant you access to "Debug Mode". I've seen several of the older Sonic games with it.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Black Tiger Report post Posted December 13, 2002 Thanks for the info. I saw the mode listed as a cheat code for Virtual Chess 64 and I was clueless on what it meant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Man in Blak Report post Posted December 13, 2002 Also, I believe almost every arcade game machine has one as well, since the debug menu is where the arcade owner can indicate how many coins equates one credit, how many credits it takes to play the game, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
