2 curious easter eggs: Penny Arcade and The CowI've published a
video at youtube with the 2 easter eggs. Thanks a lot to
Bonny Ploeg for her help with the search of the cow.
Penny Arcade (
http://www.penny-arcade.com) is a webcomic focused on video games and video game culture, written by Jerry Holkins and illustrated by Mike Krahulik. Besides 'tycho' you can also look for 'penny arcade', 'dudash' or 'mcmillen', earning the same easter egg.
Both are
official easter eggs. In the document of easter eggs, it appears the line "TR1 at 102p: Find the hidden animal"; "TR1 at 102p" means "Exterior of Train Station at Day 1 - 02pm".
Among the resource files of GK3, I found the 2D model (TR1_COW.MOD), the very little texture or skin (COW.BMP) and sound clips with the different "words" of the cow-language (COW1.WAV, COW2.WAV, COW3.WAV); all of them appear in the 3rd and last part of the video (green background).
Note 1: The cow is not in the
list of characters of GK3.
Note 2: In
this folder are all the resource files mentioned in this post.
