At any time during gameplay, a cheat code can be activated as many times as needed to receive one free medicine bottle, allowing players to stock up on as many health items as they need to get through the game. This was most likely not meant to be seen by players and was possibly intended for debug purposes during development. The code involves standing still, pressing Up/Down/Left/Right and repeating this combination 16 more times in a row.

At any time during gameplay, if you press Down 100 times in a row, Rambo's combat knife will automatically gain 15 EXP points. This cheat does not have a limited use and can be activated as many times as needed, suggesting this was meant to be a code used for debug purposes during development and not to be used by players.

There are two hidden methods to obtain permanent unlimited ammo. In order for both of these methods to work, Rambo's combat knife needs to be at Level 1 (20 EXP points), which is difficult due to Level 2 being only 320 EXP points away, making the chances of the player collecting the necessary ammo before Rambo levels up slim. As such, these methods were likely only intended for debug purposes and not meant to be discovered by players. If you manage to collect exactly 2 throwing knives, 3 arrows, 4 exploding arrows, 5 machine gun rounds and 6 hand grenades, all ammo and health items will be permanently refilled. The other method to get permanent refills is to have an ammo count of exactly 77 throwing knives, 77 arrows, 77 exploding arrows, and 77 machine gun rounds.

When the title screen menu cursor points to the "START" option, press B on Controller 2, then press Up/B/Right/Left/Down/Right/Left/A/B/Right/Select/B/Down/Start on Controller 1. This code unlocks a pair of debug features that can be used on Controller 2 during gameplay by pressing either A to skip the current level (up to the ending sequence), or B to switch between the Jekyll and Hyde modes.

After obtaining the map from the karaoke bar, if the player selects the "じっとみつめる" ("Stare") option and waits on the resulting screen for an hour, a text box will appear mimicking the sign-off messages used by Japanese TV channels before the screen goes black. Waiting an additional three hours brings up a series of SMPTE color bars, and waiting one more hour brings up a second text box which simply reads "おはようございます" ("good morning"). Following this, the player is returned to the karaoke bar, with their progress reverted to before obtaining the map.

The New World script seen throughout the game is a cipher for the Latin alphabet. While this is most visible with the subtitles for "Welcome to the New World", which are provided in both scripts, all other instances are just as easily translatable, producing coherent English-language messages.In an interview for Nintendo's "Ask the Developers" column, series director Shinya Kumazaki and associate producer Kei Ninomiya revealed that they deliberately designed and utilized the New World script in a way that would allow players to translate it themselves, with Kumazaki describing it as a way to make the game more immersive for curious audiences.

In the original release of the game, attempting to quit during the scene where Spoiler:the player character walks in on the aftermath of Sayori's suicide would open a modified version of the exit prompt. The text in this version of the window is heavily distorted, and a rapidly flashing GIF portrait of Sayori appears in the leftmost region. This Easter egg was removed in the Version 1.1.1 update due to concerns that audiences would interpret this as the game mocking them for feeling distressed at Spoiler:a realistic depiction of suicide; another likely factor for its removal is the risk that the flashing could pose to epileptic or photosensitive players. Despite this, the prompt's assets are still present in the game's files.

Within the Underground World (a hidden area in the Dream World only accessible by sleeping in one of five replicas of Madotsuki's bed, randomly chosen each time she falls asleep) is a large corridor full of fire. Normally, this room requires Madotsuki to obtain and equip either the Snow Woman or Umbrella effect, which produces precipitation that puts the fire out and allows her to proceed into the Storage Room. However, if she enters this area as a snowman (by equipping the Hat & Scarf effect and pressing the 1 key in the Snow World) and stands next to the fire, she will slowly melt into a puddle of water; pressing the 1 key while in this state reverts her back to human form, as with the un-melted snowman.
While Madotsuki can also become a snowman in the blizzard generated by the Snow Woman effect, the weather would carry over to the corridor and extinguish the fire immediately upon entering. Consequently, Madotsuki can only access this Easter egg via the blizzard that appears by default in the Snow World.

In this version of the game, the Spin Jump button is the same button as the Jump button. This is a first for the series, where the Spin Jump is usually performed by pressing the trigger buttons or shaking the controller. However, on the title screen, if you hold down the left stick for 3 seconds and press L and R, the Spin Jump button will be reverted back to the triggers, and the Jump button can no longer be used for it. Nabbit's voice will be heard when going to the main menu if the control switch is successful. This control option was not advertised or mentioned at any point by Nintendo, and appears to be an Easter egg.

The series' in-universe Precursor language appears in several instances throughout the game, most notably in a series of Story cutscenes. During news broadcasts covering the racing tournament, a news ticker scrolling across the bottom of the screen produces a developer message from Naughty Dog when translated. The message says hello to the player and alludes to save data-based unlockable contents. However, an as-of-yet undiscovered secret is explicitly shared; the message does offer an input code, but to date, no use or purpose for it has been found.

Whenever Madotsuki turns on her TV in the dream world version of her room from Version 0.06 onward, there is a 1/8 chance that the view will cut to a full-screen event in which two rows of Paracas-esque figures scroll across the screen. "KALIMBA", the theme song for this event, was originally uploaded on Kikiyama's players.music-eclub.com profile on January 13, 2004, almost five months before Yume Nikki first released. This version of the song is substantially longer than the one that would ultimately be included in the event, clocking in at eight minutes instead of several seconds. Additionally, the cover art for the full-length version features the same rows of figures depicted in the event, albeit with a slightly duller color scheme.Due to a lack of public statements from Kikiyama, it is unknown if the song was composed with Yume Nikki in mind from the outset or if the KALIMBA event was included as an Easter egg referencing their non-game work.

RPG Maker 2003 allows developers to adjust the playback speed of an area's background music, something that Yume Nikki frequently makes use of. Several songs are featured in multiple areas, and in most cases, they are slowed down or sped up to fit a certain mood:
• The Mall Rooftop's background music is "I Fly to the Sky Forever", the Witch's Flight music, played at 70% speed.
• The Sewers' eponymous background music is "A Damp and Humid Place", the Dense Woods A music, played at 60% speed.
• "Menu Type Change", the background music for each of the rooms in the Mall, is "Start of Yume Nikki", the title screen theme, played at 50% speed.
• The eponymous discordant noise heard when summoning Uboa in Poniko's house is the screeching that plays in the Guillotine Room slowed to 50% speed.
• "I Don't Know Where I Came From", the Teleport Maze's background music, is "FEVER", the Aztec Rave Monkey's theme, played at 50% speed.
• "On a Hill, Shining Feet", the Neon Tile Path's background music, is the Snow World's eponymous theme played at 70% speed.
• "Wei Wilderness", the Wilderness' background music, is "The Dream Always Begins in the Veranda", the ambient noise heard in the dream version of Madotsuki's apartment, played at 50% speed.
• The Face Carpet area in the Forest World uses "Tokun-Tokun", the background music from the hot springs building hidden in the Wilderness, played at 70% speed.
• The background music heard in the entrance to the Mall is the eponymous background music from Shield Folk World, played at 50% speed.
• The Docks' eponymous background music is "The Mural World", heard in the area of the same name and in Footprint Path 1, played at 50% speed.
• Puddle World's eponymous background music is "Many Footprints", Footprint Path 2's background music, played at 50% speed.
Additionally, many unique area themes are played at a modified speed by default:
• "Scar Doesn't Disappear", the background music that plays in the underground area in Mars, is played at 80% of its actual speed.
• "The Land of Dreams?", the Pink Sea's background music, is played at 60% speed.
• "The Scribbling World", the ambient hum heard in Graffiti World and Hell, is played at 60% speed.
• "The Candle World", the ambient noise heard in the area of the same name, is played at 50% speed.
• "Do You Play a Family Game?", the main menu theme for the "Famitendo" in Madotsuki's room, is played at 70% speed.
• "The Black Department Store", the ambient noise heard in the Mall and in Big Red's room, is played at 50% speed.
• "The Forest World", a series of gong chimes heard in the area of the same name, are played at 50% speed.
• "Up Up...", the ambient hum heard in the stairway leading from the Wilderness to the Sky Garden, is played at 50% speed.
• "The Wall of Cold Stone", the ambient noise heard in Ghost World, is played at 50% speed.
• "I Don't Want to See It!", the ambient noise heard during the FACE event, is played at 80% speed.
• "The Number World", the ambient noise heard in the area of the same name, is played at 50% speed.
• "A Small Shrine Was Forgotten", the background music for the FC Pyramids and other select areas in FC World, is played at 90% speed.
Relatedly to the above, the chimes that make up "The Snow World" are also the same ones heard when interacting with jellyfish, played back at 110% speed for the first note and at normal speed for the second.

Various Easter eggs are hidden in the game's character files, most of which require their extensions to be manually altered:
• If the player changes the extension for Monika's character file to .png, the resulting image depicts a square of white noise inside a ring of fire and cracks. Converting the white noise to binary gives a text message encrypted in Base64. Decrypting it reveals what appears to be a monologue from Monika, who mentions a "Third Eye" that causes "some kind of deja vu," which is how she and the other girls are able to perceive alterations to the game's data.
• If the player changes the extension for Natsuki's character file to .jpeg, the resulting image file depicts a painting of a white-haired girl with blank white eyes. The image is heavily distorted, requiring the player to invert its colors and change its rectangular coordinates to polar ones in an image editor in order to view it properly.
• If the player changes the extension for Sayori's character file to .ogg, the resulting audio will become a discordant shriek, similar to that normally heard when converting a data file to audio. However, running sayori.ogg through a spectrograph reveals a QR code which, when scanned, leads to a fictitious examination report for a character named Libitina; her last name and a procedure administered to her are both redacted with a series of X's. Of note is that like Monika's hidden monologue, the report repeatedly mentions a "third eye."
• If the player opens Yuri's character file in a text editor, the result will be a message encrypted in Base64; the file extension does not need to be modified in order to do this. Decrypting the message reveals that it's "I Found a Box Containing the Story of a 19-Year-Old Girl Who Killed a Random Person for No Reason", a creepypasta that was anonymously posted on Thought Catalog in June 2015, over two years before Doki Doki Literature Club's release. In a Twitter reply, developer Dan Salvato confirmed that he was the creepypasta's author and the one who hid it in the game.

In an interview that Toby Fox conducted with the Chapter 2 development team, Taxiderby, one of the game's programmers, stated that the Spamton cherub that appears when pressing F1 during the Spamton and Spoiler:Spamton NEO fights was a spur-of-the-moment suggestion. According to them, Spamton's line "[Press F1 For] HELP" was already written, but it was originally a meaningless non-sequitur. After Fox suggested the idea of giving F1 an actual function in the fight, Taxiderby came up with the Final Fantasy-inspired Easter egg, putting it in singlehandedly after Fox gave his approval for the idea. In the same interview, they stated that they were surprised by its popularity, having made it purely as a throwaway gag.

In the April 1998 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly's spin-off magazine EGM2, the issue's Trick of the Month was an alleged method to unlock Akuma from the Street Fighter series as a secret playable character in Resident Evil 2. In order to unlock him, the magazine instructed players to play through both story scenarios six times each using only the Knife and the H&K VP70 gun on hand at the start of the game, and achieve an A ranking in all scenarios. Once these specific conditions are met, the player would receive some kind of clue that would lead them to the security computer in the Laboratory on Level B5F. At this point in either scenario, players would type "AKUMA" instead of "GUEST" into the computer, and after entering it would be sent to the Save screen and given the option to make a new save file with Akuma's name. After starting this new file, the game would start with Akuma breaking out of a cryogenic tank in an unused area where Tyrants were originally planned to escape from, and make his way through the game without the use of keys, with his main attack being a red Gohadoken used just like a gun by holding the Action button and firing.In reality, after going through these difficult unlock conditions, entering AKUMA into the computer will not unlock anything, because the trick was an elaborate April Fools' prank (with the exception of the unused Tyrant area, that was real). This prank was the work of EGM2 editor and art director Mike Vallas, who took assets from Street Fighter EX and heavily modified and photoshopped them into Resident Evil 2 gameplay screenshots. It was one of two proposed April Fools' pranks that were in consideration to appear in the main EGM magazine that month, being beaten out by a prank trick for GoldenEye 007 where you could play as previous James Bond actors. Unlike Akuma, they actually were planned to appear in that game, but can only be accessed with GameShark codes.

Although Chapter 1 was given a surprise release in 2018, with Toby Fox giving no prior public indications of its existence, Deltarune had been teased in secret since at least 2015. Three months after Undertale released, the fan site DeltaRune.com announced that it would be rebranding to Dreemurr.com at Fox's request; Fox didn't tell the owners of Dreemurr.com why he didn't want them to use the domain. However, after the fan site fulfilled his request, Fox used deltarune.com to host an image called him.png, a passage of Wingdings text only readable by turning up the brightness using image editing software.While the text initially parroted the phrase "THIS NEXT (space) EXPERIMENT (space) SEEMS (space) VERY (space) VERY (space) INTERESTING" from the unused room_gaster event in Undertale, by July 1, 2016, the text was edited to read "THREE HEROES APPEARED (space) AT WORLD'S EDGE", later being edited again by August 17 to say "THREE HEROES APPEARED (space) TO BANISH THE ANGELS HEAVEN". Both revisions quote portions of the legend that Ralsei recounts in Chapter 1, indicating that these parts of the game's backstory were already conceived by this point.
Following the release of Chapter 1, deltarune.com would be refurbished as the official website for Deltarune itself. Consequently, earlier versions of the site only survive through snapshots on the Wayback Machine, a URL archiving platform hosted by the Internet Archive.
