Courage the Cowardly Dog: Creep TV

Courage the Cowardly Dog: Creep TV has secret codes and maps that went undiscovered until 20 years after its release due to a glitch making them inaccessible. The codes include the "daScore" code, which shows a counter of how many ghosts you've zapped, and the "mirage" code, which expands the game map infinitely and allows access to the secret maps. On one of these maps, you can acquire a pair of glasses as an unused item, and another map containing an oasis in the Middle of Nowhere that also has a sign simply reading Eustace's catchphrase, "STUPID DOG!". However, if you use the glasses to read the sign, it will instead say "Wee...amazing! You found it! GOOD DOG!"

The game's creator Sabrina Diduro has stated that the reason Classic Mode isn't available until it's unlocked by beating the game, is because of how much effort she and the team at GalaxyTrail put into the story and how it is much more integrated into the game compared to Freedom Planet. However, there is a cheat code to unlock Classic Mode early, which is done by entering the Sonic the Hedgehog level select code at the title screen.

There is a cheat that can alter the size of the player and their opponent during a match. During the dialogue scenes before a fight starts, if the player presses Up or Down 10 times, a sound will play and in the match both players will be noticeably shrunk down.

There are two turbo modes that can be accessed by holding down certain buttons on a second controller before the game starts. The first will change the intro music and part of the title will blink between black and pink. The second will change the intro music as well and part of the title will blink between black, pink, and white.

Turbo Mode 1: Hold the L or R button before starting the game.
Turbo Mode 2: Hold the L and R buttons before starting the game.

These may both be a reference to the title screen font colors used in Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting.

Mr. Satan (also known as Hercule) is not a playable character, but he can be with the use of a cheat device. He only has one combo and at the end of it he always dies and loses to whoever he is facing. This is because his only appearance in the game is when he faces Cell in the story mode and performs this same combo and dies.

Cheat code:Spoiler: Up, X, Down, B, L, Y, R, A
This is to be performed at the title screen and when done correctly you will hear a voice line from Broly saying "Kakarot!"

Because the developers were still experimenting with Double Battles where the player teams up with an NPC ally to fight two NPC opponents, this led to a glaring oversight during the battle where the player joins with Steven Stone to battle Maxi and Tabitha where, during the battle, Steven's Level 42 Metang can actually gain a substantial amount of EXP simultaneously with the player's own Pokémon. This essentially means that, with careful manipulation, the player can have the ally Metang get enough EXP to grow to Level 43. This so far is the only instance in the entire Pokémon main series where, in a non-scripted battle, an NPC's Pokémon can gain EXP and level up.

The post-credits scene of the film Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed has Scooby present the audience with a "Game Boy Advance Secret Code" for the tie-in video game of the film, the easily-guessable "SD2". This code is promoted as working with both the GBA and PC versions of the game and is prompted to be entered at the end of each port of the game.

In the GBA version, entering the code will reveal who the main culprit is. If it is not entered, the ending cutscene will cut off before the culprit is revealed as to prevent spoilers.

In the PC version, entering the code will instead trigger a bonus Dance the Fright Away minigame between the main villain and every member of Mystery, Inc.

As of version 1.3, after inputting a secret code on the Practice Mode select screen, "Mike%" is activated, which adds a timer to the game which stops once Mike is defeated. This is presumably a nod to the Mike% speedrunning category found on the game's page on Speedrun.com.

If this code is active while playing the game's final level, Mike is found sleeping in the corner of the boss room.

In 2022, a pair of previously unknown cheat codes for the game were discovered, presumably having been used for debug purposes:

• From the title screen, by holding the R and Y buttons on a second controller, and then pressing Start or A on the first controller, a new menu will appear showing Little Mac versus head profiles of all 16 fighters in the game, allowing you to select whoever you want for a one-off match. After the match is finished, you are sent back to the same menu.

• Also on this menu, an unbalanced two player-mode can be accessed if the second player holds B or Y on their selected opponent until the match starts. As the opponent, using A, B, X, or Y in tandem with Up and Down will allow you to pull off every basic and advanced attack in each boss's arsenal. This mode is unbalanced in that every boss is still more powerful than Little Mac and have pauses with "tells" for when they are about to attack, and if dodged successfully will leave them vulnerable to attacks.

Attachment After beating the Dog Ending, a pair of hidden cheat codes can be inputted when you continue the game afterwards (if these are inputted on the international versions of the game, make sure that the controller type is set to "2"). These cheat codes went undiscovered until 2018, and their effects were previously believed to only be accessible via hacking:

• Inputting Start/L2/Square/L3 will cause a hidden mini-map to appear in the top-right corner. A series of four raw cheat codes can also be inputted to activate different versions of the map.

• Inputting Left on the D-Pad/Left on the Left Analog Stick/Left on the Right Analog Stick/L2/L1/L3 will cause the Save menu to appear, allowing you to Save anywhere in the game.

In 2021, several cheat codes were discovered in the Game Boy version of the game, the first two of which must be activated through the title screen.

• Ending and Credits: Up/Down/Left/Right/Select/Start.

• Sound Test: Down/Up/Down/Up/Select/B.

• Level Select: While paused in normal gameplay, press Down/Select/Up/Left/Select/Right/B. Press A or B to select a level.

• Hidden tribute to Hiroko Kasahara: To access it, you must first access the Sound Test menu. Then, set the BGM/SE index to 02 and press A once, then set BGM/SE index to 19 and press A once more. Lastly, you must input the following lengthy code:
Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Left, Right, Right, Select, Select, Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Left, Right, Right, B, B, Up, Down, Left, Right, Select, Up, Down, Left, Right, B, Select, Right, Left, Down, Up, B, Right, Left, Down, Up, Select, Select, Right, Right, Left, Left, Down, Down, Up, Up, B, B, Right, Right, Left, Left, Down, Down, Up, Up, Start.

If inputted correctly, an alternate credits sequence will play out. The normal credits plays the game's ending theme and lists the name of programmer Yutaka ★Hiroko★ Sakashita among the game's developers. This alternate credits sequence instead plays the Vs. Mode music and lists the name Hiroko Kasahara at the top of the screen. Kasahara is a J-Pop singer, and the names of the game's developers in the credits are replaced with a comprehensive discography featuring the names of several albums she had released up to 1993, including the release dates for her then-upcoming 1993 albums "L'Express Fantasie" and "Nature". Considering Sakashita used Kasahara's first name on the standard credits sequence, he is most likely the one who included this Easter egg to document his love of her music at the time the game shipped. The fact that this sequence is hidden behind two cheat codes that would take almost 30 years to be discovered, with one of them being too long to easily guess, suggests that it was never meant to be seen by players.

Attachment During the title screen's credits, an infinite lives cheat code involving pressing several impossible button combinations at once can instead be activated by wetting your finger and rubbing against the empty Control Port One on a Commodore 64 keyboard, tricking the game into thinking these combinations are being performed. A large sprite of Maximus Mouse (from the games Summer Camp and Winter Camp) will appear, replacing the giant sprite of Fuzzy that is normally in the background, waving his arms as you rub your finger across the port until he turns grey and the fountain of Fuzzy sprites that normally launches in the foreground instead launch flashing rainbow-colored Fuzzys, indicating the cheat has been activated.
