10. Willy the Rogue
Author: the DrUnKeN mAsTeR!!!
Publisher: BaSe1 PrOdUcTiOnZ
Year: 2002 (v. 1.2)
Language: English
Willy the Rogue was the second gamma-released JSW128 game by the DrUnKeN mAsTeR!!!, and the second part of the so-called Down and Out Trilogy (the other two parts being: Skint Willy and Steal Stealin'). It was released in September 2002 (v. 1.0), with a couple of bug-fixed revisions (v. 1.1 and 1.2) following in October.
Willy wakes up in another bathroom. Through the drunken, sleepy haze he sees the figure of Britney Spears. He realizes he has regained the fortune he previously lost to Hans Krauser, and partied heavily afterwards. Willy decides that he will loot the place, sleep here and then run off with his goodies the day after. The player's job is to help him complete this plan.
The last original revision of the game was still impossible to complete because of a critical bug. A bugfixed, completable version, prepared by Daniel Gromann, was released, with the DrUnKeN mAsTeR!!!'s "blessing", in November 2019.
The game uses Hacklevel 8 of the JSW128 game engine.
