How do I get Game Genie codes to work on Power Pak?

I've typed them in. I've made .txt docs. I've confirmed the codes work on emulator. But I can't get them to work on the Power Pak.

Yes, you will have to beat the game 14 times. I've not found any other way yet.

And I now realize that the rules are indeed not very concrete or shown well. (thanks for the heads up everyone.) I will clean this up in the days to come.

If you are into it, that's cool, but I guess agreeing on what is all faces means is the hardest part.

• I think I agree with your approach where you only collect a face just once even though it respawns. going all the way back to the beginning will be so painful.
• Never use a bag as a shortcut, in secret bags with two exits always come back out the bag you came in.
• Don't recollect a face you already collected. (Haven't tested that yet)
• Would y'all want to hit all the professor faces in the sky for the coin it spawns?
• Lastly there are a few faces I've never figured out how to acquire, like in 1-3 and I think some in world 4-1. Maybe y'all know, and I'm just a dummy.

I've never actually read the rules on this game until just now and it says we start the timer when felix starts falling, but I've always started it when I press start game. I'm not sure how we decide which method we would like to use, so I'm hoping here is the place to ask that. Any thoughts from anyone?
