Introduction
---------------
Space Race Is a freeware game Made by Claus Jensen (me). It's the result of
only one day of hard work. You can freely copy it to all your friends cause
it's freeware, but just dont remove the copyright. It is not allowed to remo-
ve or change any of the included files.

System Requirements
---------------
The Game runs in Dos but will also run in windows 95 i haven't tested it in
os/2 yet but im sure it runs fine from an os/2 dos prompt.
486 Or Higher
4MB Ram
Vga Graphic Card / 320x200x256
Dos ? or Higher (o:
(Pentium Recommended!)
It runs on a 486SLC 50 Mhz with 4MB Ram but very slow, Im working on a thing
i call a "Center Machine Speed Generator Thingie and stuff" so if you run the
game on a slow computer you can center the machinespeed it will make the
delays and other stuff shorter so it fits the computer.

TroubleShooting
---------------
If the game won't run in windows 95 then restart the computer and when it says
starting Windows 95 then press F8 and select Dos Mode.
Make Sure you have the line FILES=40 Or maybe Less in your CONFIG.SYS.
If you get a run-time error then make sure you used the pkunzip -d function,
or if your using Winzip then remember to enable "Use Folder Names"
sometimes when you fly outside the screen, usually when you do it fast, it
just hangs. Thats my fault, im working on that. sorry about that mistake it
should be fixed soon. (o:
If you encounter any new problems then please contact me and i'll Make a FAQ.

How To Play
---------------
Run the "lander.exe" file. And the will game start.
Press the "up cursor" to speed up the ship/throttle something.
and by pressing the "left" and "right" cursor the shuttle moves from side to
side.
the object of the game is to land on a flat place with low speed. Landing
too hard will wreck the shuttle. The landscape is randomly generated but
there will always be a flat place that's min. 21 pixels long.

What's In The Full Version
---------------
Well it is the full version. but you can allways download new things for the
game, like plugins for new shuttles, missions etc. Im making an update so
that it's not just a lander game but also some small other games. A 2 player
mode will be ready soon and also a play versus the computer mode.
