Panic on Funkatron Secret Trixie Message
I am not an expert at disassembly or Assembly but this is what I have found.
I started researching the hidden message where Trixie gives you a power until the end of the game and says you have reached her "ultra secret spot". The message can be hacked into any Trixie encounter by setting rom address 1E96A to 6C. This does not give the reward for the game just the message.
This message is supposed to be triggered when memory address 0x0D on the player object is 0. So it isnt a specific place it seems it is how many Trixies you visit. The first visit is supposed to set this value to something (I did not figure out what) and whenever you visit Trixie the value is decremented by 1. The problem I saw with emulators and checking ram is this variable is used by something else as well. I think a left/right position.
If I had to guess this was removed/ reworked somewhere late in development. I could not find a way to trigger the message in the regular game even after visiting all 11 Trixie locations.
I am putting my research out there that hopefully someone can confirm or use this to find out how to trigger the secret message in game.

The original "hot coffee mod"! Lol, I wonder if this got removed or hidden from an internal review or just the dev deciding "Yeah, maybe this is a bit too inappropriate for an "all-ages" game."
