Developer Message

Inside a file named STORY3, there's a hidden message inside. It can be found by decompressing the file with a suitable LZ91 decompressor and opening the decompressed file with a hex editor at 0x14CD9.

If Motorhead moved in next door to you,...... your lawn would die!

Another Ste Cork Creation, but what a sod to write!

Don't work for LINEL, it's lousy money, flies everywhere, the whole 
place stinks of shit - human and cattle -, there's NOTHING to do but work, 
no TV or anything, no pubs, nowhere to go, no car - 
despite what he tells you, you're always hungry, 
'phoning home costs you nearly all your wages, 
if you need medical treatment you're in trouble 'cos you're working 
there without a permit, your wages are late EVERY month,

I could go on but I've only got 640k ram after all.

Weird Messages

After that message, there's some unusual text that doesn't appear to show up in the game.

see my eyes, and the tongue of a killer, I'm a humanoid logic machine....
I could not find the file '$' anywhere, sorry.
The way out seems so simple now in the cold, cold light of day
Down In The Park with a friend called 5.
Picture - Eyes in a cold steel frame. The freaks arrive, broken 
needles and blood,"Oh! what you on Man to get those eyes?"
