!Help for Tilt
4th Dimension 1996
Double-click !Tilt.
Start a game by pressing space or by clicking a mouse button on `Begin Game'.
Unless the configuration has been altered, you'll have a single seesaw. Drop
the blocks onto it.
The keys are: Z - left
X - right
Q - clockwise (or reflect horizontally)
A - anticlockwise (or reflect vertically)
Space - drop quickly
Make lines of three or more pieces of the same pattern to make them disappear.
You will die if your balance tilts too much or the blocks pile up too high.
Finish each level by making enough lines or surviving for a given time.
Later levels introduce more interesting features such as larger blocks (eg
Tetris pieces), narrower balance, a randomly moving pivot and much more besides.
Click Select level to choose the start level (but after level 10, you can only begin on a level you've already reached).
Press 2 on the main menu for a two player game. In this case, you'll be given
two seesaws. Each player plays separately as usual, but can make lines with
the tilt pieces (with opposing arrows on) to tilt the opponent's balance in the
direction shown on them.
Player 1 keys as above
Player 2 keys: < - left
> - right
? - clockwise
" - anticlockwise
return - drop
The Options menu controls the sound and number of players (but #players can
also be controlled by starting the game with the `1' or `2' keys)
Controls menu allows you to change the keys, and select keyboard, joystick or
mouse.
You can edit the messages file to make it run in any language (but we'd like a
copy of good translations). Make sure you check all the messages fit in place
correctly, especially the keys, for which the space on screen is very limited.
Have fun!
