- Uploader: emackey@BIX.com

-
- This is MegaBall AGA, the all-new version 3.0 of a classic Amiga action
- game! This game comes with two graphics files, one that lets it run on
- older Amigas (even ones running WB 1.2!), and another that lets it take
- advantage of dazzling 24-bit AGA graphics if ya got 'em!
-
- A few of the exciting new features:
- - Exploding bricks!! These guys set off in chain reactions and destroy
- lots of other bricks in loud firey explosions!
- - New "Dynamite" bonus adds more exploding bricks to a board!
- - The new graphics, even the non-AGA ones, are much more clear and
- readable than in previous versions.
- - All new music, written by Al Mackey with OctaMED Pro!
- - 24 new colors of bricks (even in non-AGA) make boards 300% more
- colorful than ever before.
- - All new boards!
- - The ball and lasers can now be rendered without the use of hardware
- sprites. (On some systems, hardware sprites didn't show up!)
- - Old "background pages" removed.
- - New hypertext documentation, written in AmigaGuide format.
- - Customizable music!!
- - ASL file requesters (when available, otherwise req.library is used).
- - On AGA systems, ultra-smooth 24-bit fades (looks so COOL!)
- - Understands a whole range of Workbench versions, from 1.2 to 3.1 and
- beyond! Only a minimal amount of code is version-specific.
- - As always, MegaBall appears on a standard intuition screen and
- continues to let your Amiga multitask, as it should!
- - The ModeID of the above-mentioned screen is now user-settable, for
- those with special graphics cards, monitors, etc.
-
- MegaBall is back, and more fun than ever!
