P. O. BOX 11261, DENVER, CO 80211 USA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
CATALOG #86-007-1A
INSTRUCTIONS:
HAVE YOU EVER HAD THE FEELING YOU WERE BEING PURSUED ... AND LIKED IT?
WELL, HERE'S YOUR CHANCE.
YOU FIND YOURSELF ON A TWO-DIMENSIONAL BILLIARDS TABLE SURROUNDED BY A GANG OF
GORILLA BALLS ENTERING FROM THE 4 CORNERS.
TO MANEUVER:
YOU MUST USE THE 4 ARROW KEYS ON THE NUMERIC KEY PAD TO MANEUVER SO AS TO
AVOID BEING GORILLA BALLED.
SCORING:
WHEN TWO GORILLA BALLS COLLIDE, THEY ANNIHILATE EACH OTHER AND YOU GET ONE
POINT.
THE BIG CATCH:
OF COURSE, YOU MUST EVENTUALLY FACE UP TO THE FACT THAT THE TABLE IS
CONTINUALLY S-H-R-I-N-K-I-N-G.
GAME MODES:
FUNCTION KEY F1 SWITCHES BETWEEN THE THREE GAME MODES: PLAY, AUTO, AND DEMO.
THE LEGEND FOR THIS FUNCTION KEY IS IN THE LOWER LEFT HAND CORNER OF THE
SCREEN: IT INDICATES WHICH MODE YOU ARE ACTUALLY IN AT THE TIME.
1. THE PLAY MODE IS THE NORMAL MODE: EACH TIME YOU PRESS AN ARROW KEY
YOU MOVE ONE HOP.
2. IN AUTO MODE, THE ARROW KEYS SET THE DIRECTION OF MOVEMENT ONLY AND
YOU MOVE AT A CONTINUOUS SPEED.
3. IN DEMO MODE, THE COMPUTER SHOWS YOU HOW EASY IT IS TO RACK UP THE
POINTS.
**WARNING ** CHANGING THE MODE RESETS THE SCORE TO 0!
