	Think that I had to spend a lot of hours in this silly ?8) game, and 
I need to know that all that time was good!!!. 

	In our WebPage you could find some tabbed songs (to play it with a 
guitar), very funny articles and recommendations in order to improve your 
internet navigation !!! and a web highscore table !!!.

1.- REQUIREMENTS
2.- INTRODUCTION
3.- CONTROLS
4.- TRICKS
5.- VERSIONS


1.- REQUIREMENTS

  You need mainly two things. Windows 95 and the Visual Basic 5.0 RunTime. You can 
get the last one in almost all magazine´s CD-ROM, or in our Web page. Remember that 
perhaps you already have this RunTime so first of all try to find it in you own hard
disk (you have to find "msvbvm50.dll" in your path).


2.- INTRODUCTION
                            Game Goal:

  You have to put together 3 or more equal pieces per shot, and you will win the 
game when all the screen is empty. It seems easy but you have to know that less 
Bloobs used means more points in the score and vice-versa. 
  Remerber that you can see the next piece in the low-right corner and take note 
of it when you shoot.

Good Luck !.
	

3.- CONTROLS

		    Keyboard:
	ESC - Enables/Disables the cursor.

		     Mouse:

	Left/Right - Move the gun left/right in order to get the best angle.
	Left Button -  Shoot the piece .

		     Score:
	3 pieces on line -       10 points
	4 pieces on line -       17 points
	5 pieces on line -       26 points
	6 pieces on line -       37 points
	7 pieces on line -       50 points
	8 pieces on line -     żżżImagine???

NOTE: If you get cut off pieces, this pieces will fall down giving you a lot of 
points. Exactly the number of pieces fallen multiply by 10 (per piece!!). 
So this is the big trick  to broke the highscore table. ?8)
