Details : Hello, And thank you for downloading my Santa game, It is the second game I have written for the Palm Pilot or Win CE and I hope you like it. To run the game you must have the Waba engine installed , This is included in this Zip. Simply install the files as you would any other palm pilot application. Then install the santa.pdb and santa.prc files The game is one I wrote especially for Christmas. In the game Santa has broken his leg so he can't ride his sleigh anymore.You play the part of His Elves who have been drafted in to help deliver the presents. To start the game push the 'Start Game' button on the main title screen. If you have previously completed any years (levels) a selection box will appear on the title screen to let you jump straight past the Years. To fly the sleigh within the game, Use the Up and Down keys on the palm pilot to steer. You must avoid all the Roof tops, Chimneys and any Robin's that might appear. While you are steering the sleigh you must drop as many presents down the chimneys as you can. To drop a present tap anywhere on the screen. You need to aim to get the present down the chimney top. For Every Year you have to get a number of direct hits, The number of presents you have to get down the chimney is displayed at the top of the screen by the house icon. This increases in later years. **Beware** Every year only has 20 houses available to deliver presents to. At the top of the screen is also displayed the current Year you are playing on, and the number of elves (lives) left to help deliver presents. Game Features are * Lots of Levels * Christmas Tunes * Animated Graphics * Smooth scrolling * Level saving so you don't have to repeat any level again. The program is written using Waba which is a Programming platform for the Palm Pilots and Windows CE Machines based on java, The advantage with Waba is that the same software can be run on the above machines without modification and also be run on the Internet as a Java applet, As you can see on my web site and many others. More WABA details and downloads are available at www.wabasoft.com or from the link on my web site. If any one would like the source code(Not very well commented I'm afraid) or has any problems with my game please let me know. Thanks Paul Ellams. PS. Don't forget the game is Postcard Ware so if you like it please send me a postcard ( Or a Christmas card if it is nearly Christmas ) My address is Paul Ellams 8 Needham Close Runcorn Cheshire England WA7 5SL
