I have finally finished the game. I cannot believe it. Great ending. Thanks to all who helped me get through some of those impossible rooms. One question though, Can you get through that door at the end of level 10. I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas.

I don't think there's very many people here who can answer that.....

There's hardly anyone who has it any more, and only a few of those have actually completed it.

Well, I completed it a few years ago, but I don't really remember what Webfoot's ending was - but I do remember I didn't like it. Caravel's ending, on the other hand, is great.

I can answer that. Yes, Webfoot did have a different ending:



I was furious, but I've said that so many times I've probably upset Erik. Don't cry! I still love you(r game)! I will discuss my anger no longer.

I think I've heard that somewhere before, now that you mention it. I remember thinking that it would be really bad.

Anyone who has an old alpha version of Caravel DROD with the cheat keys should be able to access the Webfoot DROD ending by level-skipping to 25 and room-skipping to 1W. In fact, it was through this that I first saw the Webfoot ending.

How do you do that? I know there's an option to start on level four, but isn't that supposed to be all?

Because of the second frame in Beethro's dance, all Webfoot would have needed to have a great ending was a picture of Dugan in front of Beethro, so it would look like Beethro was slapping him senseless for designing his dungeon like that

Hee hee.

This came after the original Webfoot release.

In the first round of testing, when we were still on build 5 in the alpha stage, we got versions with cheat keys to help us test the game, for it was still using the old Webfoot system, and so we had no options to choose which level to test or which room to go to. The cheat keys allowed us to skip levels, move between rooms that had a passage connection, complete the room automatically, and undo moves.

In one release of the AE beta Erik accidently left the cheat keys in. In every other release past that they were removed so I would guess the answer would be no.

Somewhere on the site you can see the two pictures of Beethro dancing. I've hidden them.

That would kinda ruin the whole idea of them being hidden, wouldn't it?

If I were to post the dancing Beethro animation on the forum, would this spoil the fun, in your opinion(s), Matt (Both of you)?

Well, it would, but if you really think it's necessary, then go ahead.

I think it would be good for others to see what webfoots ending was if they have conquered King Dugans Dungeon in caravel drod.

Why would it matter so much? Everyone here seems to agree that it was bad.

I always thought that he was walking back up the stairs, not dancing. I mean, he's 25 floors underground. And he just killed a bunch of stuff. Why would he be dancing?

Killing is such tense work, he was just unwinding a little before beginning the long journey back up the stairs.

I Still want to see what he does!


What I picture in mind is Beetrho holding his sword up while doing some certain shoe taps.. Which is a very akward dance...
Kind od like the highland fling..
