1 - INTRODUCTION

Native Assault is a fast-paced action arcade game reminiscent in game play to the old days of classic 2D blasters. That's where the similarities stop. It features 16-Bit pre-rendered 3D graphics, high-quality sound effects, and plenty of enemies to blow sky-high.

WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 1.2:

• Fixed a few gameplay issues and added an extra bonus level. This increases the number of new waves in the registered version to over 50!
• Fixed a major bug which affected cursor input with users of several Mac models; this glitch made the game nearly unplayable from improper input response. It should be fixed now.
• The game will now allow the finder to sleep / shutdown normally at the main options screen.
• Fixed several other misc. bugs.
• NOTE - Users of the registered version of Native Assault 1.0 must replace the new "nassault.dat" file with their old one to retain saved level and registration data.

3 - INSTRUCTIONS

Native Assault has deceptively simple gameplay; it is similar in concept to the classic arcade games of a few years ago. The premise is simple: you are in charge of a missile command center and must therefore stop all oncoming attackers before they destroy your cities below. You receive points for each enemy destroyed, which you can then use to buy upgrades, such as faster missiles, or repair any bombed buildings. Below is a description of each game screen:
 

MAIN SCREEN

The Command Center has four hit points at the start of a level. You cannot repair the Command once it has been hit, but it will automatically have four hit points again at the start of the next level.


PURCHASE SCREEN

The prices for missiles and reparations increase after each game level. The prices for missile speed and missile launchers increase with each purchase.

At the end of each level, you have the option to save your game. The "Save" button will be inactive at the end of a wave if it is not the last one of that level.


Enemies of the First Level

	10 pts	Generic attack missile - destroyed with one direct hit
	25 pts	High-powered bomb - emits a large explosion and can withstand at least two direct hits
	100 pts	Bomber plane drops missiles on your cities and keeps circling until it gets destroyed- two hits downs a regular plane
	20 pts	Bomb dropped by plane
	20 pts	Bomb dropped by larger enemies...

Bonus Items

	500 bonus points
	Destroys all the enemies on the screen

*NOTE: Of course, there are many more enemies as you get further into the game. This is just an introduction to the first few attackers you have to deal with.
 

4- HINTS AND TIPS

• Have about 100 missles before each wave early in the game and about 150 or more as you get farther into it.
• Try to buy missile speed-ups early in the game
• It is easier to guard fewer buildings rather than keeping them all alive... however, it is very risky to go into a wave with only one building; you also miss out on the bonus points!

5 - REGISTRATION

The demo of Native Assault allows you to play the first level of the game. To play the rest of the game, more than 6 extra levels (a total of over 50 more waves of action), you must register the game for a mere $20. You have two options when registering:
