QUICK REFERENCE
═══════════════
Don't want to waste time reading endless docs? Here it is
a quick reference for you, lazy people...
MAIN MENU
═════════
Move the mouse and select with left button. Or use the
keys:
1 - Start Game
2 - High Scores
3 - Options
4 - Zone Designer
5 - Load Zones
6 - Exit
1.- START GAME (SELECT PIECE SET)
═════════════════════════════════
Move the mouse and select with left button, or use the
keys 1,2 or 3. ESC brings you back to the main menu.
2.- HIGH SCORES
═══════════════
Click on the two gray boxes with arrows to scroll up or
down the score table. You can also use the UP/DOWN and
PgUP/PgDOWN keys. If you click (left button) on a record
of the score table, you will see a window with the
complete info about that particular record. To exit,
press the right button or ESC.
3.- OPTIONS
═══════════
Point & click (left button) on the desired option.
Updates are reflected on the window to the right of the
screen. For non-mouse users, use the UP/DOWN arrow keys
and ENTER to select. Selecting QUIT, pressing ESC or
clicking the right mouse button will bring you back to
the main menu, SAVING the latest options selection.
3.1 - GAME SPEED
────────────────
This is for different skills, nothing to do with
fixing the speed for your computer. EASY is the
default speed, and when you get to high levels, it is
not that easy.
3.2 - REDEFINE KEYS
───────────────────
Function keys and Alt, Shift, Ctrl keys cannot be
selected. ESC will abort the operation.
3.3 - MUSIC
───────────
Enables/disables music in menus and while playing.
3.4 - SOUND F/X
───────────────
Enables/disables sound fx while playing.
3.5 - FIRST LEVEL
─────────────────
Select initial speed level (levels available are from
0 to 18).
3.6 - FIRST ZONE
────────────────
Select first zone to play.
3.7 - BOMBS
───────────
Enables/disables bombs while playing.
3.8 - HELP
──────────
Shows a "Table of Scores" and Help screen.
4.- ZONE DESIGNER
═════════════════
GRID : Toggle grid on/off.
CLEAR : Clear current zone.
DEL : Delete zone from current zone set.
ROTATE : Rotates a portion of the design. It's kind of
useless.
ADD : Insert new zone.
COPY : Update zone in memory. If you don't "copy" a
zone, it will not be saved in memory. It is
important you understand this.
FLIP : Flip horizontally and vertically the zone.
COLORIZE: Change the colors of current zone randomly.
MOVE : Moves a zone from one location to another.
LOAD : Will bring you to the LOAD MENU, to load a
zone set from disk.
SAVE : Will save current zone on disk.
<- / -> : Go to previous/next zone. Arrow keys
LEFT/RIGHT do same thing.
EXIT : Go back to MAIN MENU. The ESC key does the
same thing.
5.- LOAD ZONE
═════════════
Select the zone you want to load (if any), and click in
the LOAD button. To exit without loading any zone, you
can either press the ESC key, click the right mouse
button anywhere or click in the EXIT button. For non-
mouse users, use the UP/DOWN arrow keys and ENTER to
load, or ESC to quit.
6.- EXIT
════════
Goes back to DOS. You can press either ESC, 6, Q or click
in the EXIT area.
THE GAME
════════
You should know... Now every time you eliminate one line,
you get a bomb (unless you disable BOMBS in the OPTIONS
menu), and every 20,000 points, a little spaceship
appears that allows you to shoot at the blocks for 10
seconds. The keyboard handling for the spaceship is
terrible, simply because I'm using Int16h. I wrote the
whole spaceship routine in less than half hour. Don't
blame me! :-)
Also, a few other things will give you extra bonuses and
such. For more info, read SRP.DOC.
