*** An unused [[Level Editor]] exists, and it is fully-functioning. It can be accessed by typing "room 7" in ScummVM's debugger.

** ''Maze Madness'':

*** An unused [[Early-Bird Cameo|early version]] of the ''Squoosh'' arcade mini-game from ''[[Putt Putt]] Travels Through Time'' can be accessed by using ScummVM's debugger and typing "room 6." This version of the mini-game has four different pictures to reveal: the Seattle SuperSonics' '95-'01 logo, Luther pulling his fins out from the Junkyard Dogfish's mouth (a scene from ''Freddi Fish and the Case of the Missing Kelp Seeds''), Pep licking up Putt-Putt's vomit while Putt-Putt watches, next to Chuck Wagon (a [[Dummied Out]] scene from ''[[Putt Putt]] Saves the Zoo''), and 30 live-action people.

** ''The Case of the Stolen Conch Shell'':

*** The Conch thief's [[Thief Bag|bag]] is an inventory item that can only be obtained by using the game's debug mode or ScummVM's debugger. It cannot be selected or used.
