Debug Panel
Open the FangDash debug panel with Ctrl+Shift+D for live stats, game constants, and cheats — restricted to accounts with the admin role.
The debug panel is only accessible to accounts with the admin role. Regular players can't
open it, and the shortcut does nothing for them.
FangDash ships with a hidden debug panel for maintainers. Use it to inspect live game state, confirm physics and difficulty values, and jump straight to the scenarios you need while testing.
Open the panel
Press Ctrl+Shift+D during gameplay to toggle the panel on and off. Access is checked against your role — only admin accounts can open it.
The panel uses a CRT/retro terminal look — green-on-black text with scan lines — so it stays visually distinct from the main game UI and never gets mistaken for something a player should see.
Tabs
The panel is split into three tabs.
Stats
Live, per-frame game state:
- Current speed, score, and distance
- Frame rate and delta time
- The active difficulty tier
Constants
The game constants currently driving the run, straight from packages/shared:
- Physics values (gravity, jump velocity)
- Speed and scoring multipliers
- Obstacle spawn rates
This is the fastest way to confirm a tuning change landed without digging through source.
Cheats
Developer shortcuts for exercising specific scenarios:
- Set score or distance to a specific value
- Toggle invincibility
- Skip to a specific difficulty tier
- Force-trigger achievements
- Unlock All Skins — instantly unlocks every skin for the current player (calls
admin.unlockAllSkins)
Cheats are testing aids, not a shortcut around progression. Runs that use them are handled like any other unverified run and don't earn ranked scores or XP — see Scoring for how server-side validation works.
Audio & Sound Settings
How FangDash handles audio — 3 background music tracks, 9 sound effects, and a master volume slider plus mute toggle saved to your browser.
