WTF! ¬¬

[Ribo Zurai]

...that was drastically unsettling. But was that it? Nothing happened in the three minutes I stayed in that place using all walls and looking around.

EDIT: Nevermind..... That was absolutely horrifying.

I just figured that out. My god, I won't sleep well tonight for sure. That was beyond disturbing.

[Sgt Dopey]

Its more weird than disturbing for me. Oh and type kill zygo in the console see what happens

[jpalomo]

Is the crash intentional? It crashes right after I die. Otherwise, this is pretty creepy.

Edit:
Crash is caused by the death state for the player:

---

Code: Select all

DEATH:
TNT1 A 0 A_PLAYSOUNDEX("????","AUTO",FALSE,1)
TNT1 A 0 A_PLAYSOUNDEX("DEATH","AUTO",FALSE,1)
PLYR A -1
STOP

Should be:

Code: Select all

DEATH:
TNT1 A 0 A_PLAYSOUNDEX("????","AUTO",FALSE,1)
TNT1 A 0 A_PLAYSOUNDEX("DEATH","AUTO",FALSE,1)
PLYR A 1
PLYR A -1
STOP

Yeah, crashes for me too, other than that, that was really disturbing.
IMO the crash makes it scarier, since you still hear that death scream after it crashes.

Actually, I think it was intentional the crash with scream. I just talked with zygo, jeez. There's more secrets that I can't tell you until you find them out. ._.

You and me both. A visit to this thread may be in order.

Kill didn't work for me. Though, I see the OP was edited after your post, and I may have downloaded it after that time. Hmm…

Whatever the case, noclipping behind the invisible wall and binding mdk to mwheelup made fairly quick work of him. Not that like, I enjoyed it. :(

I did not crash when I died. I only died once, and I'd not like to test it again.


I linetargeted Zygo, and I wonder if his spawnhealth is a hint:

2147483647

Really not sure what's supposed to happen after you kill him, though. The number doesn't seem to do anything in the console alone.

[Ijon Tichy]

Well that was tasteless. Not creepy in the slightest. Just dumb and tasteless.

Edit:

---

Code: Select all

WHILE(THINGCOUNTNAME("ZYGO",5) > 0) DELAY(5);
print(s:"\c[RED]You have successfully aborted the child");

btw allcaps? really? this isn't BASIC

[The Zombie Killer]

I linetargeted Zygo, and I wonder if his spawnhealth is a hint:

I edited his health to 50, and all that happens is he explodes into pools of blood.

[Ijon Tichy]

Okay, so, uh.

Zygo.

You just made a WAD in which you're aborting yourself.

Is there something you need to talk about?

[Enjay]

It disturbs me that people are finding this disturbing.

[Pyroscourge]

I must admit, it was creepy, but I am gonna have to agree with Ijon. Regardless, I took my time to go through the file to uncover the hidden 'secrets' of the mod.

When you say messages in the first post, I can't tell if that's you trying to imply that the overall message of the mod is abortion, which was pretty obvious. If however you actually mean messages of text, then there are a few here or there. Using iddqd, idclip, or idkfa will give you customized messages to do with the whole theme of the mod. The exit messages also all say "It will live..." and one will rarely show up saying "Long lives the UNBORN!" All the actors are named uniquely as well, with the player class being called a parasite. The fetus is called ZYGO, implying that we all just aborted the author.

The scripts are only there to check if the eggs have been killed and to see if Zygo has been killed. As far as I know, there is no way to kill Zygo without spamming mdk, or simply editing his health. When you do kill him, I feel something is supposed to execute script 2 which gives the delightful message, "You have successfully aborted the child."

So, it's pretty hard to find any secret message in this mod, let alone a major one when they are seem to be the same kind of thing.
