Is this a cheat word (like
WRITETYPER), or is it just some obscure joke? "

it
appears to be a cheat code from what i read on john's
disassembly, although typing it in various places proved
fruitless. i suspect i have the wrong version.

i
played through henry's hoard today, quickly. there are
some amusing tribute rooms, and willy makes an
appearance in a few rooms.

there is also an
*appaling* piece of fatal trial-and-error over halfway
through the game where a conveyor belt carries you to a
deadly pit and you lose all your lives.

i was
thinking of doing a hh2, but i don't like the way the
sprite is shorter than willy, causing some background
collision detection problems which look very
shoddy.

i may go ahead anyway, or at least try and make
henry taller, so that i can make a game with the title:
"henry's whored", the story being something to do with
henry being a prostitute in the midget sex
industry.
