Since I managed to make Action Replay codes for both games, I thought I better make a topic for them both!

Anyway, the two games Maya the Bee: The Great Adventure and Maya the Bee: Sweet Gold were both developed by Shin'en Multimedia for the Game Boy Advance platform. There is no actual GTS in these games, so cheat codes will have to be used. They are listed for their respective games below. (Codes only tested on emulator. I don't yet own the actual game cartridges, so I cannot verify if they will work on a real cheat device. Hopefully they shouldn't present any issues if used.)

Maya the Bee: The Great Adventure

Important info: The Size changing codes can be used in the title menu and other screens without problems, but it is still recommended to use them only while in levels.

One side effect exist; Maya won't be blinking when taking any damage from enemies if she isn't at normal size. Nothing that I can fix I'm afraid.

This code is needed for Maya's sprite to appear correctly when she is not at normal size. Without it, Maya will always appear to be facing to the right, which can look a bit awkward when moving to the left. I don't yet know how to fix her sprite y-position, if it even can be.

Maya the Bee: Sweet Gold

Important info: Do not use the size-changing codes outside of levels! While I guess that nothing bad will happen when using them on other screens, I highly advise against it.

There is a slight issue with the scaling of the player's sprites; parts of the player sprite won't be properly adjusted to match, due to a hard limit on the sizes of object sprites. Setting the size to 0x0300 made the player sprite appear worse. Setting the size to 0x0200 eliminated most of that problem, even if the top part of the sprite looks slightly off sometimes. The original game has this problem as well, but in that game the appearance of the player sprite remain the same, even if it will be cut off if made any bigger.
