Most Certainly Not Pool II - the sequel.
First off, this game isn't really a sequel. It's more like a BIG update.
Because of this fact, this file contains changes from the old version, and
the original documentation is contained in the file POOL.OLD.
Score is now displayed on the bottom right of the screen.
You still get 10 points for getting a ball in its correct hole, but
you also get a 1 poing bonus (or penalty) for each second left on
the clock.
The clock is shown on the bottom left corner of the screen. You do not
lose when the score reaches zero, but you are penalized 1 point for
each second beyond zero when you get the ball in the hole. You are not
penalized the points if you lose by getting a ball in the incorrect hole.
The green ball is now blue and the yellow ball is now red. Likewise
with the holes.
The playing surface is marginally decreased in height to make room for
the score and timer.
The game now records high scores. If it asks you for your name, enter it.
You can make it as long as you like but only the first 30 characters are
stored in POOL.HOF. If problems occur with the high score file or you
wish to reset it, simply delete the file POOL.HOF.
The file BALL.GIF has been changed. The old BALL.GIF will not work
correctly with the new versions of Pool.
You now use the arrow keys (Up, down, left, right) to move the cue ball.
Certain keys on the alphanumeric keyboard will work also, but the arrow
keys are much more convenient.
