Developer Mode is a bundle of features created by [[Bungie West]] to help them develop [[Oni]] -- a console line for entering scripting commands, manual camera controls, and various debugging features -- that was associated with the [[Cheats|cheat code]] '''thedayismine''' (see picture at right for related [[Easter eggs|Easter egg]]). This cheat code did not work upon Oni's release, and it was long believed that Developer Mode had been cut from retail versions of Oni; it had only been observed to work in the [[Mac beta]] that was leaked during Oni's beta testing. However, Dev Mode is actually present in ''all'' available versions of Oni (except PS2). It just needs to be unlocked, as the community learned [[History_of_Oni_modding/The_tale_of_Dev_Mode|back in 2006]].
