Starting a new thread because this one might get really long lol
Here’s what I see now:

Any ideas of which way I should go?
[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 4:30 AM:
Try heading through the right doorway considering it’s the only one that doesn’t actually have a door.
[Jackpit] 04/16/2013 4:33 AM:
Anyone else think this looks like the same layout of the starting room? Just with different textures, of course.
[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 4:35 AM:
My thoughts exactly.
@firemint what is in the room on the right?
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 4:43 AM:
Still dark as hell in this area.

Forgot to mention that when I entered this area text slid across the screen like when you first enter the music room and how it says “Music Room”. Instead tho this time it just read “unused_room_02”
Does this imply that there was an unused_room_01? Are there possibly other unused rooms?
[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 4:50 AM:
Considering that is a very easy assumption to make, probably. No idea what those could be though. Might be tied to this new area you found. Are you sure you didn’t edit the code firemint?
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 4:52 AM:
I promise you I have zero experience with coding lol
[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 4:54 AM:
I’ll take your word on that then. What is that thing in the center of the room? You went to the right, correct?
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 4:58 AM:
Yes, as of right now Ive only gone to the right and walked in a few circles in the main central room after the long hallway lol. Theres just a sign at the center that reads “Jr was here”. Is there any mention of a Jr?
Edit: mispelled there
[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 5:05 AM:
So, anyone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m fairly certain that this “Jr” was actually one of the original developers. I believe I have heard that name tossed around in conversation about the developers before at least. Jr might have also just been an original playtester that is just mentioned in the files somewhere. I haven’t done much sleuthing in those in a while and some of the stuff is really hard to navigate or even understand in the first place. The only developer though that I am aware of was the main one, Magic.
Is there anything else in that right-side room or is it just that sign? Try rotating the camera if you can.
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 5:12 AM:
All of the walls are blank it seems idk
[Zeta_blue] (Admin) 04/16/2013 5:20 AM:
Hey! I just saw this thread and was wondering what was going on so I read through it and now I’m super interested, HAHA! I was getting ready for work and just decided to check if anyone was active. Anyways I saw that you guys were discussing the early developers. As far as I’m aware, Junior was a playtester. There’s like one mention of him somewhere but I don’t remember exactly where it was. It might be in the unused credits file. No idea.
@firemint Have you gone to any of the other rooms? Seems really cooL!

[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 5:23 AM:
Yeah, firemint, now that she mentions it, pretty sure that Jr was a playtester. @Zeta_blue I know that you were able to get in contact with one of the original developers a long while ago, do you know if they mentioned anything about any “secret” areas other than the unfinished basement?
[Zeta_blue] (Admin) 04/16/2013 5:31 AM:
The only dev that I was able to get in contact back then was RazorCrest, and he never mentioned anything about any extended rooms. All I learned from him was that Magic went completely no-contact and that’s when development of the game ended. We also talked about original versions of the game as I was really interested in that at the time LOL! However he said that he did not have any of those bcus he joined the team a few months before development ended.

Went through the white door in the main room. This is what I found.

[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 5:39 AM:
Looks incredibly similar to the Music Room minus the crank. The piano and other furniture is still there. Is there any way to make a crank appear? I’m kind of grasping at straws here. No idea what to do.
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 5:42 AM:
I tried walking up to the back wall where the crank normally would be but nothing happened. Is there any possibility that they just got lazy and used the same exact room?
[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 5:45 AM:
I wouldn’t put it out of the realm of possibility at all. I think the Drawing Room and the Music Room in the house have almost the same exact dimensions. What’s through the green door in the main room?
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 5:47 AM:
It doesnt open, just says that its locked.
[Jackpit] 04/16/2013 5:49 AM:
Sorry I was offline for a bit. I do want to suggest that you try interacting with the piano. I know it doesn’t do anything in the music room except for play that like 5 note long song but it might just be good to know if it does anything in the white door room here.
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 5:50 AM:
Yeah it plays the same song.
[Jackpit] 04/16/2013 5:52 AM:
Maybe you can try and see if there’s a key hidden somewhere? The only place I can think there was ever a key hidden in this room is the key in the bedroom in the house that leads to the drawing room.
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 5:54 AM:
I dont think that theres a key anywhere. Also, I got school in like 4 hours so I should probably sleep lol. Ill come back to this when I can.
[Jackpit] 04/16/2013 5:57 AM:
Rest up fire. You got a big day ahead of you, lmao.
[sir_arthur_of_tables] 04/16/2013 5:58 AM:
Goodnight, fire.
[firemint] (Author) 04/16/2013 6:00 AM:
Night guys.
