	There is a seemingly unused [[Starfy]] sprite (below) that depicts Starfy standing up straight with a straight face and with his arms down. It is surrounded by a blue border if the player alters one of the memory addresses that manages a conversation (03000D84h) to that of obtaining a [[Treasure\|Treasure Item]], probably because an actual Treasure ~~hasn't~~ been registered by the game. One method of seeing it is altering 03000D84h to 16h then talking to [[Moe]] in [[Pufftop]].

	In [[Sea of Sky]] there is an unused door in the main room with the boss doors, in the middle of the air above the section with a long cloud where [[Pufftop]] can be seen in the background. It is impossible to stand on this cloud without cheating, because going near it initiates a conversation with [[Moe]] before beating the game (technically only if all bosses through the boss doors were defeated) and after beating the game.

	In the 'before completion' version of Sea of Sky, it is possible to see it and [[Entering a Door\|enter]] it by changing the memory address <tt>0x03006485</tt> to <tt>02h</tt>. This is an 'orientation' address that lets Starfy move freely across the area when it is set to <tt>02h</tt>. Starfy will fall if the code is not used in water, but the player can [[jump]] as many times as they want and in the middle of the air. It is not possible to see the door in the post-game version this way however, since a conversation with Moe always triggers. For this reason it is hard to find out whether the door appears in the post-game version of Sea of Sky.

	If the player makes it to a door past a [[Seal Block]] from a stage prior to completing the game, it can still be entered but it will be empty, with any enemies, vehicles or [[treasure\|Treasure Boxes]] removed. This is normally impossible, but through memory hacking it is possible to either go through the blocks (for example, by changing the memory address <tt>03006485h</tt> to <tt>02h</tt> to allow [[Starfy]] to fall through the floor) or go to the room directly (through changing the memory address <tt>0300EBEh</tt> to a certain room value).

	The way that the rooms are different is due to the fact that internally, the stages after defeating [[Ogura]] are different to the stages before completing the game.

If the player modifies the memory address <tt>03000EC0h</tt> to a value ranging from <tt>00h</tt> (Stage 1) to <tt>08h</tt> (Stage 9), he or she is able to revisit stages as they are prior to completing the game but some of Starfy's abilities and the actual ability to break the Seal Blocks are removed.

	When Starfy stands on top of the cloud, the door can be seen with a [[Dash & Jump]], but not entered without the free movement code. When it is entered, it leads Starfy to 'map 6' - the room past a door behind some [[Seal Block]]s in the room Starfy is taken after beating [[Kuragen]]. The door disappears for some reason if Starfy enters a door and returns to the room later.
