Trivia

• There's an option in the Japanese Debug that is only accessible on the European version of the game. The function of that option is moving the entities in Patapolis. Using the arrow keys will change the coordinates of the selected entity and the movement speed can be adjusted with the triangle, square and cross buttons.
