- Note from Ed Mackey:
-
- Here is the completed set of "Underwater Boards". To play these boards,
- you *must* have a registered copy of MegaBall 3.0 or better. If you
- haven't ordered it already ;-), you can get registered MegaBall 3.0
- directly from me by mail (address below), for $15.00 (fifteen US dollars).
- Inside the USA, personal checks are accepted. Outside the USA you will
- have to use a Postal Money Order. The price includes tax, disk, postage,
- handling, etc. I will send you a disk with the registered MegaBall AGA 3.0
- on it. The disk includes graphics files for both AGA and pre-AGA Amigas,
- and should run on any Amiga from Workbench 1.2 to WB 3.1 and beyond. Also
- on the disk are a few hundred pre-made MegaBall boards, and a Board Editor
- that lets you make your own with the mouse. The highly popular MegaBall
- Music Disk is available for an additional $5.00. The music disk requires a
- hard drive and MegaBall 3.0.
-
- Unfortunately, in the release of MegaBall AGA 3.0, I forgot to put the
- upgrade price in (all of the documentation was re-written). Anyone
- who got a previous registered version of MegaBall from me can upgrade to
- MegaBall AGA 3.0 for only $5.00 (five US dollars, same restrictions as
- above). The Music Disk is an additional $5.00.

- Note from Betty Mackey:
-
- Hello, everyone! Megaball fans always like to play new boards, so here's
- my latest contribution for you, the complete set of "underwater boards." My
- earlier contributions include being the mother of Ed and Al Mackey, creators
- of Megaball and Edplayer shareware, and cooking a lot of pizza. I've also
- made more than my share of "nasty" boards.
-
- If you like scenes from the seas such as seahorses, sea turtles, manatees,
- kissing gouramis, triggerfish, shrimp, and mud puppies, give these a try.
- The underwater boards are somewhat realistic, if anything painted with
- Megaball blocks can be called realistic, but very playable, with lots
- of exploding blocks. They are for registered Megaball 3.0 users, who
- got about half of them with their original disk (I wasn't finished yet!!).
- They work with both AGA and non AGA Amigas.
-
- Board List:
- 1. jellyfish

- for the feet.
-
- Thanks again, Megaball users, for your continued enthusiasm and support for
- Ed and Al's shareware projects. I hope you'll enjoy these boards, and also
- make your own sets with the board editor, and upload them like B.LAMBERT4
- did when he released those great "Potpourri" boards.
- Happy new year and happy gaming!
