Note about Bunnymen cracks: Any ware released by the Bunnymen that I
know has a secret key always has a small, almost unnoticeable key drawn in
the upper-righthand corner of their crack pages.
The following are file games which contain messages embedded within
them that I didn't feel merited a specific entry. Use a file view utility to
find the messages (usually just short, inconsequential but vaguely
interesting words or phrases).
Alien Munchies
Asteron
One on One
Pacman
Space Quarks
Space Warrior
Star League Baseball
The following games were previously noted by others to contain easter
eggs which I could definitely not verify. Some I stripped apart without
finding the purported easter egg and some I could simply not verify at all.
You may want to venture ahead and do a little snooping yourself. A note is
given next to each ware as to the nature of the supposed easter egg.
Acey Deucy - There is supposedly a way to make the dice roll whatever you
want them to
Talon - Pressing [ESC] and the [CTRL-W] during game play is supposed to give
you an extra mount
Lastly, a blatant rip-off from Hot Rod's Secret Key file:
Beagle Bros. - On one of their disks there is this 42 sector
title page program by Alan Bird. I can't remember which one
it is though. Maybe Fat Cat or something. Anyway, during
the title page routine, ctrl-B will display a message from
them.
The disk was D-Code. The program was D.BUG.DEMO. I didn't find it.
And now, a listing of all the secret keys I ever included in my own
cracks:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dark Heart of Uukrul
A) Press '0' at the crack screen for a message alluding to the fact that The
OverByte, during our infamous country-wide rag war, said Dark Heart of
Uukrul would never be cracked (he denied using the word "never", which has
long since been proven, but hey, it was funny anyway)
B) Use a sector editor to view a message embedded on Track $00, Sector $4
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pick 'N' Pile
Press [CTRL-R] during the crack screen for a secret window
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Renegade
Boot the back side to view the crack page and then type "GRAFFITTI" for a
secret rag page
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, use a file view utility to view anyone of my numerous patch
programs (ahem) and other miscellaneous utilities for embedded messages. I
stuck a whole bunch of them in there.
-[*]- That's all, folks. -[*]-
Special Thanks go to: The Over Byte, Mr. Atoz, Hot Rod, Rotten Apple
All around thank you's go to (for the hell of it): The Master (he gave me a
chance to demonstrate my talent by letting me be a Byte Bastard), Mr. Atoz
(crazy mother-fucker), Jimo (what are you up to these days?), Mr. Xerox
(teach me some of that guitar!), Electrowiz (former Byte Bastard) all Byte
Bastards past and present, The Gypsy and Snarkboy (great friends ever since
the beginning), The Stanstead Hick (coolest Canadian mother-fucker I ever
met), Sc0tch (helped with the Scum Puppy secret keys in RoboCop and an
all-around cool dood), Apple Bandit (real or not, you're still a tweaker, and
you owe me money), El Cid (for being an asshole, but he's cool...NAY), The
Crasher (for being a complete retard), The Vassal (lame for the most part,
but he helped with the rag wars and he knew his shit), Blue Adept (if you
read this, you're more pathetic than even I...you fucking neo-nazi, racist
bastard), Mach Three (for all the help), Frodo (for sicking The Wing on me),
The OverByte (you owe me money too!), the old 213/818 BBS folks, The Space
Viking (doing that Taiwan thang), and of course, The Rampager, the other half
of the RamRods, mashing-womanizer extraordinaire (my idol!)
Also: Beagle Bros. Software for being the masters of frivolously cool little
nicknack programs and awesome utilities, Black Bag for putting quality first
into their cracks, The Midwest Pirates Guild for putting out neat work, The
Digital Gang for doing the same, all the pre-1986 pirates and pirate groups,
all the post-1986 pirates and pirate groups, all the software pirates, anyone
I missed, everyone else, my parents, my agent, the academy...
Lastly, all the musicians to whose music I hacked/cracked/phreaked/programmed
to...
