Subject: Death TV: Rescue Monty

 

Finally I managed to bring the room in which you rescue Monty from a
crusher to life. I had to use a teleporter but it works a treat and
with 128 rooms to spare I figure I can use a few cut-scenes. Anyway
now when you open the door and walk up to Monty, you miraculously save
him and get an extra life, and he says 'thanks!'

The funny thing is that if you enter the room again you see him
trapped under the crusher, and you can rescue him all over again but
you don't get the extra life :)

Also, finding all of the secret items is going to be a win-condition
unless I can find some kind of dynamic way of altering the amount of
items needed. I may include hints in other locations to the secrets,
perhaps with character dialogue.

I may upload future versions of DTV regularly on my webspace to keep a
kind of museum of the progress as my ideas for it change over time.
