The Adventures of Willy Beamish (DOS, Mac OS Classic)

The Adventures of Willy Beamish
Developer: Dynamix Publisher: Sierra On-Line Platforms: DOS, Mac OS Classic Released internationally: 1991 This game has hidden development-related text. This game has debugging material.

To do: Look into the other versions of the game. The Sega CD port has a hidden message inside Super Space K'noidtrix, it says Rhett Loves Julie. There's more unused text than seen here. There are text strings for an arcade game scene which are a leftover from Rise of the Dragon. There's inspecting information for Gordon Beamish's vehicle when you stay out too late after dinner on day 1 and 3, it's impossible to do that. The later ports have the narrator read it out loud. Unused Ending/ending dialogue Unused game ending involving Boogeymen, figure out how to trigger this. I'm not sure if it's used or not. There's some extended dialogue before the Willy is broke dialogue that doesn't seem to be used, it describes Willy's parents' fate having to work different jobs, probably removed due to a spoiler regarding Willy's dad. 11 Unused songs, which can be found here.

A game about some kid named Willy Beamish (who just started his summer vacation) and his pet frog, Horny. (Get it...horned frogs? Haha!)

Unused Text

Development remnants can be found inside VOLUME.001 (DOS) or volume.006 (Mac).

Thank you for using the Dynamix Games Design System.

That should be "Dynamix Game Development System", the engine first used in Rise of the Dragon.
