Within the data for every version of the game is a semi-functional no-clipping mode that allows the player to freely explore maps without being stunned by the sunlight. The mode can be enabled by changing the value from "weatherphase1" to "weatherphase0". During exploring, the player won't be able to destroy objects that are within the sunlight.
A secondary no-clipping mode can be activated upon manipulating the level's "growmission" file. Unlike the previous method, players have full control of the camera but are unable to control Zephyr.

A partially unused transformation animation (which was re-purposed into a flying transition animation for the final game) and a stunned animation for Nimbus can be found in the game's files.

Unlike its Wii counterpart, characters such as Zephyr, Nimbus, and the Wind Warrior use two separate models in the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 ports of the game.
The first model is used during fly-through cinematics while the second one is used in-game. The Wii version only used one model, presumably because of the lack of resources on the Wii's hardware.
