Easter Eggs

I was just playing DK and was playing some of the bonus/easter egg levels :) We should definitely have some of these :) So lets come up with strange rules for easter eggs.

For example one level in DK is only accessible when it is full moon :)

Another posibility is to make the game much harder between 03:00 to 06:00, this was for example the case in some of the Mortal Kombat games :) (I am not sure of the specific time intervals, but it was sometimes very hard at night, and the computer made fatalities almost every time :) )

Hehe I'm currently at the bonus level where you have to play in first person mode. Started to play DK again, too. :) Do you know how I can pick up the level up bonus in the north-west corner?

Get a team of imps to follow you up there, I think it is the 7 key.

Huh, there are imps? Do you mean the same level? I mean the one where you start with a dragon and have to move through lava in the beginning. How many bonus levels are there?

Ahh i remember having played that level :), but I do not think that I finished it, they are in general very difficult :S

There is REALLY many bonus/hidden levels :) If you are stuck you can take a look at this.

Just out of interest, has anyone managed to get DK2 working properly under XP? Mine crashes every half an hour or so. I might try and run it through wine again.

As for easter eggs, I think we should make every creature where a santa hat when the system clock shows the date as December 25th, and kobold should turn into bunnies on Easter Sunday

This is great :), except that the Kobolds should also wear the santa hat on the 24th of december :) In denmark we get the presents at the 24th in the evening after having danced around the tree :)

We should of course also have all the creatures wear pirate hats, and maybe a wooden leg and a parrot every time it is the 19. September :)

And they should of course also talk piratish all the time :) Gaaarrrrhhh

October 31 - Your imps go around trick-or-treating (taking money from your creatures and putting it back in your treasury)
Of coarse they should all dress up :)

Ooh I got one! :D A mentor message...

December 25th:
Mentor-
"I think a Knight's head would make an excellent gift for the Heroes."

I would also suggest all Bile Demons wear Santa Clause outfits but there will be no Bile Demons... what's a similar fat creature?

Just thought of another thing, we need to have a bonus level where you can get Ug the Babarian :)
