About Jump

Jump is a simple Windows game, based on an old favourite using marbles.

Jump was written in 1993-1995 by Steven Porter using Turbo Pascal for Windows 1.5.  Jump © 1993-1995 Steven Porter.  Portions of this product are copyright Borland International.


Aim of the game

The aim of the game is simple.  You must attempt to remove all the marbles from the board, but ensure that the last remaining marble is left in the centre position.

How to play the game

You must remove all the marbles on the board, but leave the last marble in the centre position.  Marbles are removed by 'jumping'.  For example, a marble can jump over an adjacent marble into the empty space beyond the marble.  The marble which has been jumped over is removed.  Marbles can jump horizontally, vertically and diagonally.

Marbles are made to move by clicking and dragging the pointer.

Jump is distributed as shareware.  This means that after an evaluation period (in this case 30 days) you must register with the author if you intend to use the software.

When you do register, not only will you receive peace of mind, but

•	you will receive a register ID

There are several methods of registration available.

Please click on the appropriate method below for further information:

Credit Card Registration

The registration fee is $15 US when registering by credit card.  The cost is slightly higher because of the additional expense of processing credit card transactions.  For an additional $3 US, an update disk (to include some additional shareware on a trial basis) will be shipped to you.

F2	Game/New.  Allows you to reset the game or start a new game.


registration payment

Payment for registration through postal mail can be done in a number of ways:

1	United Kingdom bank cheque

2	Eurocheques

3	Postal Money Order, written in UK pounds sterling

4	UK pounds sterling currency

5	US bank cheque

6	US dollars currency

I suggest that $10 US is equivalent to £5.  Registrants outwith the UK should include the £3.00 equivalent in US funds for disk, duplication and postage if the update disk is required.


CompuServe Registration

Registering using CompuServe has some additional benefits:

•	quick and easy process on-line

•	you will receive notice of update releases

•	you will receive your register ID sooner

•	you will told how to locate my other software on CompuServe for downloading

The registration fee is ten US dollars when registering by CompuServe.  This is slightly more than the US equivalent of £5 because CompuServe claims 15% of the registration fee in commission.

To register using CompuServe, type GO SWREG at any ! prompt.  CIM users should click on the GO icon, and type SWREG.  Jump has a registration ID of 4273.  You need this number to register on-line.

CompuServe will charge the registration fee of ten dollars to your CompuServe account, and notify me of your registration.  Once I receive notification of your registration, I will send  you your register ID by CompuServe email, which you can type in to the opening dialog in Jump.

Users who register using CompuServe will not receive additional shareware by post, since all of my latest shareware is available on CompuServe.
