Secrets

Nightmare Creatures features a robust set of Programmers Cheats and level passwords. Let’s get you prepped for the fight.

Programmers Cheats

Base Cheat Code Screen
Enter the Password Screen and enter the following:
Left, Up, Triangle, Down, Triangle, Triangle, Cross, Up.Confirm the code, and then start a new game. Before you choose your character, a new Cheat Menu will appear with the following options:
- - Unlimited
    Turning this on will give you unlimited secondary items.
  - Play Monster
    Turning this on will override your choice of character with a giant monster creature.
  - Start (Level Name)
    This is a Level Select. Use right and left on the directional pad to choose a starting level, and then Cross to accept. Note that some of the level names vary in their spelling from the in-level spellings.

Additional Cheat Codes
Once you have the Base Cheat Code activated (see above), you can then start adding in more code options. These codes must be entered while you are in the Cheat Code Screen.
- Blurry Mode
  Press L1, L2, L2, L1, L2, L2, L1, Select. A chime will confirm you got it. Turning this on permanently adds the death blur effect during game play. it kind of hurts the eyes, if I’m being honest.
- Team Greetings
  Press L1, R1, L1, L1, R1, R1, R1, L1, L2, R1, L2, L1, R2, R1, R2, L1, Select. A chime will confirm entry. Once activated, start a new game and you’ll be swept away to a hidden art gallery. Both rooms feature portraits of the development team. Going up to one will cause the picture’s name, position, and a small personal message pop up. There are two rooms to explore, and then you can exit out to the game from the large black doorway. Pretty neat!
- Music Select
  Press L1, L1, L1, L1, R1, R1, R1, Select. A chime will confirm entry. You will see ‘Track Options’ appear in the Cheat Menu; turn it on. Start the game as usual and pause. At the bottom of the pause menu you will now see ‘Track (Name) (Number)’. Use left and right to select a track, and press Cross to play.
- One Hit Kills
  Press L1, R1, L2, R2, Select. A chime will let you know it’s active. In the cheat menu you’ll now see ‘Gut Body On / Off’. Turning it on will allow you to kill most enemies in one hit. Good times.
- Small Monsters
  Press L2, L2, R1, R1, L1, R2, Select. A chime will acknowledge you did it right. In the Cheat menu you will now see ‘Reduce On / Off’. Activating it will see the enemy creatures shrink down to about a 1/3rd of their original size. While funny, it does make them harder to hit. Be safe!
- Disable Combos
  Press Press L1, R1, L2, R2, L1, L1, R2, Select. A chime confirms it. In the Cheat Menu will now be an option labelled ‘Disable Combos On / Off’. Turning this on removes your ability to perform the in-game combos.

Infinite Health – Manually
An unexpected bonus arises once you have the Base Cheat Code’s ‘Unlimited’ option turned on (see above). One of the secondary items is a red healing orb. If you set this as the default item and press the Item button, it heals you. For infinite health, just leave it as your default item and jam on the Item button to refill your health infinitely.
