Subject: The pain of creation / Ending
i got a lot of writers block when i first used
jswed, and i really thought i wouldn't ever be able to
get creative with it, but after a couple of weeks i
kinda broke through it. obviously i still get the block
quite a lot but then writing jsw rooms isn't something
you can do continuously.
as for the ending
screen, you use the rooms 15 and 33. 15 is the master
bedroom where the maria sprite is. when you pass through
to the left of room 15, willy starts 'running' right
until he hits the toilet, in room 33, at which point he
falls in, although you can change this to any 2 frame
animation you want.
the best thing to do is either
(a) delete all the objects and set up your ending to
run smoothly fairly early on in the game or (b) use a
cheat poke (can't remember it offhand but try arsen's
page) to reduce the number of objects to 1, and then
collect it and try the ending out.
hope that
helps
