Out of game secrets

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”.

Here is the chat log:

Todo: chat log.
  • 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 speculated 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 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.

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.
