==== vid.wmv ====

In the game files is a video titled **vid.wmv**. It appears to be a screen recording of a conversation on AOL Messenger between "AAnderson" and "GJason", which are most likely **Allen Anderson** and **Greg Jason** from the dev team.

> AAnderson: No, I mean David B.
> AAnderson: You know he was the one who found that body downstairs.
> GJason: That was like 10 years ago or smt.
> AAnderson: It must still be bothering him, he's still obsessed with the incident.
> GJason: Yeah I can tell too. Maybe it's just his way of coping tho?

> GJason: lol, enough foolin then let's make a game.
> AAnderson: Ight, I gotchu.

  * It has been confirmed by Kira that the "Victor Laurie" is a mistake, the name should be David Bunch.
  * Given the name of the process started in the window beneath the sword icon (ChatSpy.exe), it can be inferred that David Bunch was spying on his employees.

==== ___.zip ====

In the game files is a password protected zip archive called **___.zip**. It can be opened using the password **SKINNED**, which can be obtained from the door area in [[basilisk-2000:cells:ARENA|ARENA]].

The only file in the archive is **BASILISK - early build remove.smc**. It can be opened as an image, or in the **SNESy+** emulator from [[basilisk|Basilisk]].

=== Image ===

As an image, the red, green, and blue channels are each different images.

=== ROM ===

As a ROM file, it must be placed next to the original Basilisk ROM in order to be loaded properly.

Upon loaded, you directly booted into a forest with a missing texture from Basilisk 2000 on the ground. In the area is an error sprite from Basilisk 2000, which has this to say:

  * //Hey you made it.//
  * //All the way back here.//
  * //That's when it started after all.//
  * //The skinning, the scared alchemy to create a true basilisk.//
  * //They started with a man.//
  * //Although some called him a monster.//
  * //They sought to make his outside as warped as his inside.//
  * //They started with the skin, it had to go first.//
  * //Little by little they removed almost everything.//
  * //Util they finally made it, a true basilisk.//
  * //A true monster.//
  * //A they kept it, fed it, poked it, and tortured it.//
  * //Then they locked it up and worst of all.//
  * //They f o r g o t it.//
  * //But it lived, somehow, it seems.//
  * //At least in the back of David's mind it did.//
  * //Or was it David all along?//
  * //Or did he simply help with the experiment?//
  * //Or did he just work in the same office building?//
  * //Or was it all just a nightmare.//
  * //He couldn't remember. He didn't want to either.//
  * //But it lives.//
  * //And it will live.//
  * //And it will grow.//
  * //And it will starve.//
  * //And it will feast.//

The game closes after the last line of dialogue.
