This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: See if the editor still exists and if it's able to be modded back in.

Decompiling the game's files reveals one with instructions for a level editor. Unfortunately there is no known way to access the editor.

NEW OBJECT: Hold down SHIFT and...

  'K' - krusty krab
  'N' - krab patty
