The NeverEnding Story II |
---|
Developer: LinEL This game has a hidden developer message. |
Bastian must explore the word of Fantasia, while being careful to not making too many wishes or he will lose his memories.
Developer Message
Inside a file named STORY3 is a hidden message. It can be found by decompressing the file with a suitable LZ91 decompressor and opening the decompressed file with a hex editor at 0x14CD9.
If Motorhead moved in next door to you,...... your lawn would die! Another Ste Cork Creation, but what a sod to write! Don't work for LINEL, it's lousy money, flies everywhere, the whole place stinks of shit - human and cattle -, there's NOTHING to do but work, no TV or anything, no pubs, nowhere to go, no car - despite what he tells you, you're always hungry, 'phoning home costs you nearly all your wages, if you need medical treatment you're in trouble 'cos you're working there without a permit, your wages are late EVERY month, I could go on but I've only got 640k ram after all.
Gary Numan Lyrics
After that message, there appears to be the lyric snippets from multiple songs by Gary Numan:
- "Do Your Best"
- "Jump"
- "Down In The Park"
- "Tubeway Army"
According to programmer Ste Cork, he'd sneak Gary Numan lyrics into games.[1]
see my eyes, and the tongue of a killer, I'm a humanoid logic machine.... I could not find the file '$' anywhere, sorry. The way out seems so simple now in the cold, cold light of day Down In The Park with a friend called 5. Picture - Eyes in a cold steel frame. The freaks arrive, broken needles and blood,"Oh! what you on Man to get those eyes?"
