Subject: Re: "Willy and the Dodecahedron" / Minutes-per-item coefficient

 

Daniel,

Interesting analysis! My minutes-per-item values always seem to be
high. Maybe I shouldn't be so stingey with items for Willy to collect. :-)

Booty Cave" (054) - did you pick up on that?)

is it???

I see you're not familiar with African American slang. :-) I don't
mind being mildly bawdy sometimes!

> There is actually a room called "Willy Meets the Lemonade Man" in
the "Dodecahedron", isn't there?, which can only be seen in the editor...

Yeah, I always like to include a secret room which (hopefully) ties in
with another game. Actually, you can get to this room in-game, not
just in the editor. Admittedly you've only got a 50-50 chance of
making it, with a little help from the bottom-right cauldron.

Stuart.
