From: "Knowlden, Robert" <[e-mail]>
Subject: Arashi 1.1 app

Recently (IM 11-151) the Think C 5.04 source to an update of the classic (IMHO)
arcade game was posted to Sumex. I've done nothing with it other than compile
it. It runs well on a Quadra 700 and an old Mac II with a 19" monitor and a
slow 1024x766 video card (full screen!). I include the application and those
parts of the documentation that I could read with TeachText or Word 5.1.

I'd like to thank Juri Munkki and the others for making this available.

games have nothing to do with my job or my employer.)

Date: Mon, 4 Oct 93 15:52:13 +0100
From: [e-mail] (Ingemar Ragnemalm)
Subject: Bachman 2.0


This is a new version of my Pacman-style arcade game for the Mac,
with 3D perspective, different levels etc. The game should work on all
Macs and under all system versions, now in color when available.

This version not only adds color, but also fixes the problems with
the game demanding too much memory on some systems. As configured,
it will run with up to 256 colors, and will run even with more if
you give it more memory.

The game is $15 shareware, which gives you the registered version, which
includes the level editor, plus the latest versions of my other games.

Send cash (neatly wrapped) if possible. Most checks and money orders are
pointless since I have to pay high fees (in the order of $12) to cash them.

From: [e-mail] (Russell Schwager)
Subject: BeamWars 2.3.2 update

This file is a refresher version of BeamWars.  The latest version is
BeamWars 2.3.2 revision 1a.  This version replaces version 2.3.2
revision 1.  This is the first revision made to the game since 1992.
The only major difference since the last version is that the computer
opponents are much smarter making the game harder.

This game is similar to the old arcade game called Tron.  The game
consists of 4 beams that maneuver aorund the screen.  The last one to
die gets a bonus.  This goes on for a certain length of time and the
leader in points at the end of the time is the winner.  This game has
great graphics, smooth animation and a great soundtrack.

BeamWars requires an '020 or better CPU and a 13" monitor with at
least 16 colors or shades of gray.  It looks best in 256-color mode.
BeamWars runs best under System 7, but will also work with System 6.
System 6.0.2 or better is required for sounds to work.

This game is shareware and has a $15 registration fee allow though
there is no "copy-protections" in place.  There are no differences in
the registered and non-registered versions.

The author of the game is: Steve Crutchfield
([e-mail]) and is a product of Polaris Software.
Suggestions are welcome for the next version which is scheduled to be
out by the end of the summer.

 We at Pangea Software believe in the "old" shareware ideology that shareware
should cost pennies and have no strings attached. Recently Mac shareware fees
have exceeded costs of actual packaged software, and we think that stinks.

 For this, our first Mac shareware game, we are only asking: $5

 We humbly request that instead of paying us, you send the money to the American
Cancer Society.  Please tell them why you are donating, and please write or
email us to tell us if you have donated - we want to know if we are making a
difference. We also are VERY interested in YOUR ideas for future shareware
games.  Our survival depends on your support.  It is our intention to produce an
entire line of shareware games for the Mac.  We are aiming to crank one out
every few weeks, but we need your help.  Any assistance you can offer in terms
of ideas, equipment, tech support, etc., would be great!


 Please notify us of any bugs (no pun intended) or system incompatibilites so
that future games will work correctly.  We are not yet official Apple
developers, so our access to information is limited.  Any technical help is
greatly
appreciated.

 Copy and distribute this program all you want. Shareware distributors are
authorized to sell this program for no more than $5.  Anyone wishing to sell the
program for a higher price must receive written permission from Pangea Software.




HOW TO PLAY

 Bloodsuckers is a shooting gallery type game where your goal is to protect your
arm from being sucked into oblivion by hoards of blood-thirsty insects.

 The mouse moves your hand around the screen.  Press the button to swat at a
bug.  On the right of the screen are two meters:  a pain meter and a blood
meter.  The Pain Meter begins to go up when the first bug bites your arm.  It
cannot be stopped. The Blood Meter decreases as long as bugs are sucking on you.
 The more bugs there are sucking, the faster the meter goes down.  When the
blood meter runs out, you are dead.

 Some bugs are easier to hit than others, and some bugs
may take more than one hit to kill.  When the screen becomes full of bug guts,
it may be difficult to see that a bug is sucking on your arm.

 At the end of each wave you will recieve bonus blood based on your pain meter.
The less pain, the more blood you get.

 At the end of each level there is a timed bonus round where you must pick up as
much blood as possible in the given time.  You do not need to swat blood, just
wave your hand over it to pick it up.

From: [e-mail] (michael j darweesh)
Subject: Bonk-1.4.2.cpt.hqx

Bonk is a simple mouse action shareware game inspired by the gopher
games in some video arcades-the ones where you "Bonk" the gophers
on the head with a soft mallet. There is a 256 Color and Black and
White version included with documentation. Bonk is System 7.0 compatible
shareware. Try it and share it!

1.4.2 is a significant change to the previous version(s). I mucked
around with the difficulty levels and made the easiest level easier
for younger players. The hardest level is still pretty hard, but
easier than it was. Also, I fixed a stupid mistake where the sounds
wouldn't play properly on a Mac Plus or earlier.

Please, send me some e-mail if you have any comments, suggestions,
or questions about Bonk.

the player must use 1 paddle to hit the ball into bricks and prevent
the ball from slipping by, Ken's version allows the options of 1, 2, or
4 paddles. This means you must prevent the ball from slipping by 1, 2,
or 4 sides of the playing field/screen depending on the option chosen.

     "The fast, fun game of skill and fur..."

     CatWalk is an arcade-style game with a difference.
It will appeal to cat lovers, mice haters, spider haters,
and to anyone who enjoys running, jumping, and cleaning up
after themselves.
     The action takes place in a house (maybe your house)
where evil rats and spiders are threatening to take over. It
will take our heroine, Zisa the Devil Cat, a lot of cunning, energy,
and work to make the house safe before her owners come home...

     CatWalk 1.0 will run on any Plus-or-better Macintosh running
any system version since 4.1. It will take advantage of many
features of higher end Macs, if available.  It is supplied as a
self-extracting archive.  I am the author.  CatWalk is shareware;
the fee is $10.00. CatWalk may be included on the info-mac CD if the
"About CatWalk 1.0" file is included unaltered.

America Online: [e-mail]

CheeseToast is a Maelstrom/Asteroids-inspired game I wrote to teach
myself how to do sprite-movement on the Macintosh.  I hope you like
it.  Feel free to replace the sprites and/or sounds.

This archive contains the (uncommented, undocumented) Think C source
code as an aid to Programmers who are interested in such things.

To run the game, you only need the application "Cheese Toast" and the
file "CT Resources".

CheeseToast requires a color mac with a 12" monitor or larger and
32-bit Quickdraw.

CheeseToast is free.  The reason CheeseToast is free is because I
don't have time to a) Polish It and b) Handle technical support or
programming questions.

Please don't include CheeseToast or it's source code in Shareware
collections that cost money without receiving my permission.

If you would like to do a major revision of CheeseToast, let me know!

Changes for version 1.0.1:

Cheese Toast now runs correctly on 12 inch monitors, and it centers
properly on monitors larger than 13 inches.

I fixed an opening audio glitch that was happening on machines with
Sound Mgr 3.0.

Sprite rendering has been sped up a bit.

Rochester, N.Y. -- April 20, 1994 -- Today Ambrosia Software, Inc. (the authors
of Maelstrom) announced the launch of Chiral 1.0.0, its dynamic new $15
chemical conundrum for Macintosh. This latest Ambrosia program is the fruit of
a collaboration between Macintosh developer Trevor Powell and Ambrosia
Software's prolific founder Andrew Welch. Chiral is an amalgamation of high
resolution 256 color graphics, funky digitized sound effects and addictively
puzzling game play.

A fusion between the scientific concept of atomic bonding and the addictive
game play of Tetris, Chiral is based upon the ill fated tale of Molecular
Tendencies Laboratories. After navigating through Ambrosia's user friendly
shareware notice and detailed control panel/title screen a player is confronted
with the molecular arena and a glass vial. Points are scored by positioning
atoms on the screen, building molecules out of the atoms provided.

A doctorate in atomic chemistry is not needed to quickly grasp the strategy of
game play. The number matching concept is very similar to dominoes: An atom
with four dots needs to be aligned with four other atoms.

Price: $15.00

Requirements: Color capable Macintosh with at least a 256 color monitor, and
System 6 or above.

Subject: Yeager's Air Combat Demo

This is a demo version of Electronic Arts Mac version of Chuck Yeager's Air
Combat.  Mac programmer Mark Adams has done a great job in porting this
originally DOS game to the Mac.  The high frame rates (on my IIsi), numerous
mission scenarios, several types of flyable aircraft, ability to create
missions, make QuickTime movies of your missions and network dogfights will
make this game a welcome addition to the growing list of Mac flight simulators.

Yeager's Air Combat is expected to start shipping in September.

Subject: [*] Cumulonimbus 2.0 [Game]
Date: Wed, 14 Apr 93 18:25:06 CDT


Enclosed is Cumulonimbus 2.0.  This release is already over a year old, but it
hadn't made it to the info-mac archives yet.

C'Nimbus is one of those games in the Tetris genre.  There are already enough
of these type of games, but since C'Nimbus 1.0 was the first decent version
available for the Mac, it's only fair that the most recent version be
represented.

The game was developed on a Mac+, so it runs on the Mac+ up, and in color
or color-capable machines.  It is 7.0-friendly, has decent sound, and is the
most configurable game in it's class.  All this for only $1 shareware!

Subject: Cyclone 1.1.1
Date: Tue, 18 Jan 94 20:46:24 -0800


High Risk Ventures is proud to present our first shareware game!  Cyclone
features way-cool graphics and sound, and addicting and challenging game
play.  It's based on an old arcade game called Star Castle, in which you
fly a spaceship around on a wrap-around screen, and attack an enemy base
which sits in the middle of screen.  The base protects itself with three
rotating shield rings, heat-seeking mines, and a nasty plasma cannon.
We've added a few things to the original game, including weapons for your
ship, shields, bonus points, a challenge level, and more.  There's also an
'original game' mode for those who want to play the game as it was originally
designed.

This is a commercial-quality game, offered as shareware with a $10
registration fee.  Call High Risk Ventures at [phone] or email to
[e-mail] for more information.

Enjoy!

Mike.

From: "(Michael A. Kelly)" <[e-mail]>
Subject: Cyclone 1.x to 1.1.1 Updater
Date: Tue, 18 Jan 94 20:43:36 -0800


This program will update Cyclone 1.0 or 1.1 to version 1.1.1.

Version 1.1 fixed a few bugs, including the infamous multiple-monitor mouse
problems.  It also made the ship more agile, kept the mines from crossing
the screen boundaries too often, and included several other bug fixes and
refinements.

Version 1.1.1 fixes a bug that caused a crash on a few machines.  If Cyclone
1.1 crashed when you first ran it, and then told you there was a missing
resource when you ran it again, your machine is probably one of those few.
If Cyclone 1.1 has been working for you, you don't need this update.  If you
have version 1.0, you should update to 1.1.1.

Call High Risk Ventures at [phone] or email to [e-mail] for
more information.

Mike.

Hello Sumex Folks -

This is a submission for the info-mac archives.

The file is called deskscan2-patch.sea and is a compactor self-extracting
archive. It includes a ReadMe file and a ResCompare patch program. This
patch program modifies the software provided with Hewlett-Packard scanners
so you can play tetris in the preview window of the scanning utility.

When prompted by the patch program, you select the DeskScan II TWAIN data
source, which is in the TWAIN folder, in the Preferences folder (under
System 7) or in the System Folder (under System 6). After that completes
successfully, you invoke the game by running DeskScan II and pressing
Cmd-Opt-Shift-Click in the preview area of DeskScan II.

This program is not released or sanctioned by Hewlett-Packard.  If you
have problems with DeskScan II after performing the patch, please
re-install a fresh copy from the original disks (or restore from backup)
before blaming DeskScan II.

Diamonds is a game by Oliver Dreer of Switzerland.  Basically, it's the
ultimate incarnation of the time honored "bricks" or "break out" game in
which you maneuver a bouncing ball in an effort to remove as many bricks
from the board as possible. Diamonds adds a lot to this basic idea including
very attractive color graphics (it will ONLY work in 256 color mode), multi-
channel sound (if you have System 6.0.7 or better), different types of bricks
that require the use of corresponding flavors of balls, and significantly
more complex and interesting layouts which become progressively more involved
as the game goes on.

Movod games, Fist Fighters has good graphics but still isn't that great a

256 colors required.  I'm posting it because some people expressed intrest

FS-ATC 2.0

Air Traffic Control software for
Microsoft Flight Simulator Macintosh version 4.0.

FS-ATC is an air traffic controller software that operates with
Microsoft Flight Simulator. It runs on the background and it uses
some undocumented apple events to find out position, direction,
altitude and speed of  aircraft. Using this information FS-ATC sends
messages to the pilot using notification manager dialog box or playing
sampled sounds.

This version has been comletely revised. There are lots of new features
like realistic pilot-controller communication, altitude control, more
accurate position tracking, support for sampled sound resources,
and support for the new Speech Manager. There is also a new
instrument for long range navigation.

This version introduces a function key resource (FKEY) that is
installed into Flight Simulator application. Command-Shift-8 key
combination is used as a communication button to simulate pilot's
discussion with tower, center and approach controllers.

There are more flight routes and the old ones have been completely
rewritten. A couple of them are written for SD-series scenery files
by Mallard software. FS-ATC will automatically change sceneries needed
on the route during the flight.

For each route there is a map that opens with TeachText. You can
use the maps to study what the controllers will require you to do.

FS-ATC 2.0 is released as shareware (10 US$). The registered users
will receive documentation for creating controller files of their own.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not a pilot myself, I wrote the program just for fun.
The messages and routes are purely fictional.

Game:    Gravity Wars
Author:  Rhys Hollow
Freeware.

Gravity Wars is a port of an Amiga game for the Macintosh.  It was a
great game, and was for two players, so naturally, I ported it to my
GameMaster system :)

The basic premise of the game is that it is an interstellar version of
"Shoot".  You fire your missile at the enemy ship, planets affect the
missile with their gravitational pull, the missile quite often orbits 2
or 3 planets before coming back and hitting you!  Fun fun fun.

This is version 1.4.5, suggestions for improvements are welcome.

From: "Chris B Council" <[e-mail]>
Subject: Happyweed! 1.2

This is version 1.2 of Happyweed!, a game which is very similar to Pac Man.
The major difference between this and Pac Man is that you go around the board
collecting marijuana leaves, joints, and bongs instead of generic dots and
power pellets.  It requires 768K of RAM, a color monitor of size 640x480 or
greater, and System 7.  All the bugs should be cleared up now.

Subject: Hazardous 1.2

HAZARDOUS 1.2 (BIG UPDATE)
is an addictive arcade action game for all Macintosh computers running
System 6.0.7 or higher.  It requires at least 600/720K free RAM (B&W/color)
and if you want sound, you'll have to run it under System 7 or higher (if
not, the sound will automagically be disabled).  It has been successfully
tested on Mac Plus, SE, SE/30, II, IIcx, IIsi, IIci, LC and LCII computers.
It doesn't seem to work on the Quadra series (tested on the Q800).

NEW IN VERSION 1.2:
o no longer a demo; you get the FULL game
o extra lives are awarded every 25,000 points
o touch a four-leaf clover for luck
o 22 different enemy characters
o demo mode
o toggle sound (with Command-S) during game
o techical: the Sound Manager is reinitialized after every level and at the
beginning of every game, to solve Sound Manager problems
o technical: the 'QuitApplication' Apple Event is now supported.

With only a few days left to Valentine's day -93, here is HeartQuest 0.7,
a game I made for my wife last Valentine's. It's a fairly non-violent
arcade game (should be ok for small kids - no shooting, no killing)
which may remind you of Crystal Quest a little bit. The game is in color
when available - 1, 4 or 8 bits per pixel preferred. Freeware.

PS: The graphics can be better, I know. Any artists who'd like to try?
(If there is, there may even be a version 1.0 one day.)

HeartQuest is a non-violent action game I made for my wife for Valentine's
Day. You control a butterfly, with which you catch flying hearts while
avoiding the sticky flypapers. No shooting, no killing.

Works on all Macs, in color when available.

This version has better graphics, and the difficulty of each level is
modified so it won't suddently get too much harder.

Freeware.

#### BINHEX     hemiroids-11.hqx   ****

From: [e-mail] (Sean Ansorge)
Subject: HemiRoids 1.1
Date: Wed, 22 Dec 1993 10:55:58 -0800 (PST)

HemiRoids is yet another Asteroids workalike, and is free; see "Legal
Stuff", at the end of this document.

HeimRoids started as an educational effort on my part, to see how you
get a Mac to draw bright colors on the screen and play annoying sounds
at the same time. Whee! It has since of course become a cult smash and a
public nuisance, netting me hundreds of e-mail messages and almost ten
minutes of fame.

After many an e-mail about crashes when running on AV Macs, or indeed
anything using Sound Manager 3.0, I've finally gotten around to a few
fixes, and wouldn't you know it, I didn't stop at new sound code. See
the change history below for a semi-complete list.

REQUIREMENTS: System 6.0.7 or later, 8-bit color, enough memory to give
it an 1200K partition, and 32-bit QuickDraw.  32-bit QuickDraw is in the
ROMs on machines built after the IIci, and included in System 7 on all
machines; if you have a IIcx, IIx or II with System 6 it's an extension
you need to add. I've run HemiRoids with VM on, and as long as enough
"real" RAM is around to page HemiRoids in completely it should work but
no guarantees there.

This has been tested on a variety of Quadras, an LCII, IIci, IIcx, IIfx
and IIsi, all the Centris machines, AV Macs, PowerBook Duo 270c and
PowerBook 180c, and maybe even a PowerPC or two but I can't talk about
that, on-board video and Apple 8- and 24-bit video boards, in 32-bit
addressing and 24-bit addressing, Virtual Memory on and off. I haven't
had the opportunity to test it with a vast variety of exotic video
boards, so if you have problems with something unusual please let me
know. If you have a video accelerator, you may have to turn it off to
run HemiRoids (or a lot of other games), but wouldn't swear to this.

I'd like to thank all the folks who sent me bug reports so far. If you
find anything else, please let me know! Any comments are appreciated,
even if it's just to say how much HemiRoids stinks. Come to think of it,
I don't appreciate those as much as fawning praise, but still, it's good
to get mail, and I am usually in a mood to write a few pages back. Just
remember; HemiRoids is free, so be kind to animals.

HemiRoids was nominated for the 1993 MacUser ShareWare award for best
shareware entertainment product, but it lost to Maelstrom and Bolo,
which is pretty much what I expected, but hey, it was nice to be
nominated, especially in the company of such products that were so
obviously the result of so much work, and just to make this sentence
even longer I'd like to say hi to my mom. Hi.

I'm working on a new game which if things go well will be released
commercially some time next year. It's one heck of a lot more fun than
HemiRoids, so look for it when it comes out. The current title is
PegLeg, and that probably won't change `cause I really like it.

Enjoy,

Sean Ansorge

Version 1.1:
12/21/93
* Replaced old sound code (which was incompatible with Sound Manager
3.0, and hence the AV Macs) with all-new by-the-rules sound code stolen
from another game I'm working on. The new sound routines favor Sound
Manager 3.0, and if it's around you get 3-channel sound. If not, you
only get 1 channel, which isn't as nice.
* Replaced some of the artwork, just `cause I got sick of looking at it.
* Replaced some of the sounds, just `cause I got sick of listening to
them.
* Added a new whiz-bang visual effect that is sure to increase your
enjoyment of this fine game by orders of magnitude.
* Debris from space ship explosions now has a lifespan; after a few
seconds is spontaneously dies on its own.
* Considered adding code that would pick an 8-bit monitor that isn't the
main monitor, but got too lazy.
* Added love and devotion, stirred for twenty minutes, and baked in a
pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for an hour.
* No, it really didn't take 8 months to make these fixes, but I do have
day job.

Version 1.0.9:
4/4/93:
* Can't leave well enough alone
* Made collision detection code more efficient
* Fixed some drawing bugs
* Huh? Version 1.0.9? I never saw that one! Okay, so I never posted it,
but I did send it to some people.

Version 1.0.8:
3/27/93:
* Changed e-mail address in splash screen text
* Improved debris-generating algorithm; animation should not jerk when
ships blow up now
* Passed the right value to Juri's sound code, so maximum volume setting
is now available.

Version 1.0.7:
2/26/93:
* Added System 6 support (had to change 1 whole line of code...)
* Added debris for alien explosions
* Made collisions less bouncy

Version 1.0.6:
2/21/93:
* Changed & added sounds

Version 1.0.5:
2/20/93:
* Added stars to background
* Added debris resulting from ship explosion

Version 1.0.4:
2/17/93:
* Fixed the 24-bit addressing incompatibility. Thanks, Juri!
* Added special screen-flash effect during smart bomb useage

Version 1.0.3:
2/16/93:
* Checks to make sure hardware is 8-bit color capable before trying to
set screen to 8 bits deep (sorry PowerBook users)
* Added a flicker effect when ship is thrusting

Version 1.0.2:
2/16/93:
* Enhancement to improve speed on low-end machines; should now run full
30 fps on LC or IIsi.
* When launched on 68000 machines, provides an alert informing the user
that B&W systems are not supported.
* When launched in 24-bit addressing mode, alerts user that 32-bit
addressing is currently required.

Version 1.0.1:
* 2/10/93: Fixed window-positioning bug that resulted in the bottom 20
pixels of the playing area being offscreen on 13" monitors.

Version 1.0:
* February 10, 1993. I finally got enough time to finish debugging my
custom blit routines, so here it is. Have fun!

Subject: Hexnake 1.0


Hexnake is a game made by a good friend of mine, Folke So"derstro"m
(a swede living in California). He wrote it as his first Mac program.
It is a Snake game, the usual kind where you control a "snake" and try
to collect score markers (cheese), but this time on the hexagonal grid.
(I guess he was inspired by the two games I have made on the hex grid.)
Since Folke has a PB170, the game has b/w graphics (so far). Tested on
a couple of Macs with Sys 6 and 7.

From: [e-mail] (Mark E. Bradley)
Subject: jetpack.sit.hqx
Date: Sat, 8 Jan 94 13:41:10 -0500



Jetpack is an arcade action game -- fly through mazes looking for fuel and keys
and avoiding hazards.

>From the Read Me file:

System Requirements:
-- 68020 or better
-- Color Quickdraw
-- 256 colors
-- Sound Manager 3.0 recommended but not required
-- 1.3M memory

Jetpack is 32-bit clean, System 7 compatible, supports required Apple Events,
and is background friendly.


How to Play:

In Jetpack, you control a little blue-suited man wearing a jetpack.  The
little man can walk left or right, and can turn on his jetpack to fly upwards.

You must guide your little man through a series of dangerous mazes.  Why?  I
dunno.  My next game will have a qool story.

Anyway, you start each maze at a door, and must walk and fly through the maze
to find a key.  Your jetpack uses fuel for thrust, so you must replenish your
fuel supply by picking up fuel pods that are scattered around the maze.  Once
you have the key, return to the door and you will travel to the next maze.

Of course, it isn't that easy, since there are things in the maze that can kill
you.  There are three kinds of nasties: Guards, Wall Sweepers, and Fireballs.
Guards randomly  patrol the centers of the corridors.  Wall Sweepers travel
along the walls.  Fireballs bounce around off the walls.  Touch any of these
and you're dead.  No, you don't have any weapons.  Just avoid the nasties, get
the fuel and the key, and get out.

Shareware:

Jetpack is shareware -- it may be freely distributed, but not for profit.
Please register your copy by sending me a check for $10 and a 1.44MB disk.
When you register I will send the disk back with a copy of the level editor and
some other level files.  If you prefer, I can e-mail them to you instead if you
have an account on the internet.  If you register, all bugfixes and updates are
free.  If you can't afford $10, or you are filthy rich and want to heavily
support shareware programming, send me what you think the game is worth.

From: [e-mail] (rodney jacks)
Subject: Resubmission: Jewelbox-10.hqx (Part 1 of 3)

Jewelbox is a puzzle game similar to Columns or Tetris but with
different game play and scoring. The game features 256 color
graphics, original sounds and soundtrack, many levels of play,
online help, and a practice mode.  The graphics are very detailed
and colorful. The jewels are all faceted and are quite beautiful
(in my opinion of course :-).  The soundtrack has been described
as enchanting and hypnotic by people who have heard it.
Complete documentation is included with the archive.

Jewelbox requires 8-bit color capability, a 13" color monitor
(or larger), 2MB of free memory, and System 6.0.5 or later
(6.0.7 or 7.0 if you want to hear the background soundtrack).

Jewelbox is shareware with a requested fee of $10 (US).
This is a binhexed, self-extracting Compact-Pro archive.

Have fun and I hope you like the game!

Although the version numbers of this file have not changed, Ambrosia has
added a product list and 800 number service information to this archive.

This updater only works if you already have Maelstrom 1.3 or later; if you
have an earlier version of Maelstrom, you need to download the complete
Maelstrom 1.4.0 package.

This updater brings Maelstrom 1.3.x up to Maelstrom 1.4.0, the latest version
which contains a few minor bug fixes and adds a few features.

Maelstrom 1.4.0 adds an oft-requested personalization capability for
registered users, and now uses our new 4 channel sound system, Ambrosia Sound
Tool (AST).  This allows for high-speed sound playing with four simultaneous
sounds playing at any one time, adding to the game's sonic appeal.

Updating is recommended, but not essential.

Funky Maelstrom Sounds version 1.2
----- --------- ------
This is version 1.2 of my Funky Maelstrom Sounds file. It contains alternate
sounds for the wholly nifty shareware game Maelstrom. Previous versions of this
file won't work with the newest version of Maelstrom (version 1.2). So I
tweaked the funky sounds to work with the newest version.

MODERATORS: please replace the old Maelstrom-funky-sounds (somewhere in the
games directory) with this version.

Instructions:
1. Download the file. Read the README.
2. Rename the old "Maelstrom Sounds" file in your Maelstrom directory to
something like "Maelstrom Sounds (old)".
3. Move the funky sounds file to your Maelstrom directory.
4. Play!

Enjoy. These sounds are free, but I emplore you to send in your shareware fee
for Maelstrom to Andrew Welch.

Subject: Maelstrom 2.1 sounds


Dear Moderator:

This submission should replace /info-mac/game/maelstrom-martin-sounds.hqx
in the archive. The new version of maelstrom (1.2) requires sounds samples at
11kHz, so the maelstrom sounds I posted a while back no longer work with
maelstrom 1.2. I downsampled the sounds and the enclosed file can be
used with the new version of maelstrom. Just move (or rename) your old
maelstrom sound file and put this file in your maelstrom folder. You
will need to increase maelstroms memory size (in the Get Info box) to
around 3000K. Then play, and have fun!

Subject: game - Morpion 1.0.0

Morpion v1.0.0 is a simple solitaire game, initially designed
by Henri Lamiraux.  I saw it on a friends Newton and decided to
write a Mac version (mostly to get out of watching some really
boring videos that were on at the time).

The goal of Morpion is to draw as many horizonatal, vertical
or diagonal line segments as possible.   A segment can be drawn
by using five existing dots or by adding a fifth dot to four
existing dots.

Morpion requires System 6 or 7, and is free.

Hope you like it,

     Before, I uploaded a hacked version of the Pac-Man game which allowed
it to be played on large (greater than 640x480) monitors. It was rejected, as
apparently software which has been modified by someone other than the author
is not allowed.
     So, I'm sending a textfile which allows the user to fix their own
copy. I decided to simplify the operation, and in doing so, I actually made
the hacked copy more secure! It will now only start in the "correct" situation,
that is, when it won't bomb or crash.
     This textfile carefully explains how to use ResEdit to get this game
to work on any monitor that Pac-Man will fit on. Have fun!

       This is an arcade replica of the game "Pac-Man" by M. Tsuji. It's been
out for a while; I believe you had it before. However, it had a bug which would
not allow you to play it on any monitor with a size other than 640x480. With
smaller monitors, this was correct; however, with larger monitors, it would not
run even though there were no problems.
       I have patched a small segment of code that will allow play on any
monitor size (and depth). Be forewarned, though: playing with the wrong color
depth WILL cause you to crash, 100% certain! I've never tried it with monitors
smaller than 640x480, but I wouldn't be surprised if that crashed too. But for
those of you who want to play PacMan on a larger screen, this is for you.

This is PacMan. An exact clone of the original Atari game.
It runs in 256 colors only. Requires a 8-bits only card.
Didn't run on my GC card, but ran fine on my SI and my FX with
an 8-bits graphics card.

I am still unsure of its pd-status. But I feel such a great

it isn't pd or shareware, or can't be distributed, please

Subject: Patriot Command 1.1 Submission


Dear Archive Administrator,

Enclosed please find a binhqx'ed Compact Pro archive of Patriot Command 1.1's
release.  Please replace any previous versions in your archive's game
directory with this version.

Patriot Command is an implementation of a (once) popular arcade
classic.  The object of the game is to protect world cities from an
onslaught of ICBMs and other nasties that an unnamed whimsical
fascist dictator decided to launch against the world.  The worlds only
defenses are three Patriot missile silos which you command.  Each
Patriot missile is capable of creating an explosion large and powerful
enough to destroy any enemy objects that are engulfed by it.

Patriot Command requires a Mac II or better (020, 030, or 040 Mac)
with a 640x400 or larger 256-color/grayscale monitor and 32-bit
Color Quickdraw.  It runs on System versions 6.0.7 and later as well
as A/UX 3.0.  It may be run in either 24-bit or 32-bit memory
manager mode.  Patriot Command has been tested and verified to
work on the IIcx, IIsi, IIci, LCIII, IIfx, Quadra 700, and Quadra 800.
Sorry, but at this time, Patriot Command will not run on Macs with
the Apple 12 color monitor or the Color Classic.  If there is enough
interest, a version for smaller screen color Macs and Powerbooks
with 16 grayscale monitors may be released in the future.

If you like this game, please register your copy by sending in the
registration form (select "Print Registration Form..." from the Apple
menu) along with the $15/copy shareware fee to the below address.
International users (Including Canada), please send in cash since my
bank does not accept foreign checks.  Thank you for your support.

               Version History

Version 1.1 - Maintenance Release

Fixed the Tokyo city icon to prevent enemy missiles from exploding when hitting the Japanese flag

Fixed window update routine so that the appropriate cursor is set when an update event occurs

Fixed a problem that caused fatal crashes when running under the 24-bit memory manager

Fixed a bug that could cause smart bombs to vanish before reaching the ground

Fixed a bug that could cause smart bombs to go off screen

Improved explosion updates to be more uniform when there are many objects on the screen

Made some adjustments to the game difficulty to make it slightly harder (many people thought that 1.0 was too easy even when the difficulty was set to hard).  I can already guess one future comment: Now it is too hard!!! 8^)  Seriously, though, please let me know what features/modifications youd like to see in future versions of Patriot Command.  I'll do my best to implement as many of your suggestions as possible.

Changed the code so that shield and split icons are not displayed in the demo screen after aborting a game

Fixed a bug that could cause the game to hang if the starting level was selected while Game Over was being displayed, immediately followed by pressing the space bar

Fixed a bug that would cause portions of destroyed silos to reappear when an enemy missile or smart bomb hit the destroyed site

Modified the auto-silo select code to select the closest non-empty silo when the player uses the mouse button to fire

Added code to accelerate enemy missiles and smart bombs when the player is out of missiles

Modified city icon selection code to ensure that all city icons are unique at any given time

Modified the code to prevent shield usage after the Nuke bonus is shot

Added a limit to the number of missiles/bombs that a bomber can drop

Fixed a bug that could cause the game start sound to get mangled

Pentris 1.1 should replace Pentris 1.0

Pentris is a Tetris-like game that uses pentominoes instead of tetraminoes
(that is 5-squares pieces instead of 4-squares pieces). This makes the game a
lot more challenging.
This game requires System 7 or later and Color QuickDraw. Therefore, it's not
compatible with the Macintosh Plus, SE and Classic.

This game has a shareware fee of 12$US, but you can send any amount (more or
less) you want.

I grant the info-mac archive administrators the right to include Pentris
on their CD-ROM.

    Poly-RC is a game with falling rows and columns. The objective is to stay in game by removing blocks. Although it looks similar to Polytris, it is a different game.
    Rows or columns with 1 to 4 squares drop from top and stop when they hit the dropped blocks or bottom. The squares can be removed by arranging them sequences of 3 or more of the same color horizontally, vertically or diagonally.
    Poly-RC is more challenging because it has rows and columns with 1 to 4 squares, bombs, weights and radiation. Depending on your skill, you can adjust the difficulty of the game.

Polytris is a game with falling polyomino blocks, 1 to 5 connected square
blocks. The objective is to stay in game by removing rows.

This is a new version of Slime Invaders, a shoot-em-up arcade game for
the Mac. It is Space Invaders-style, with a gun at the bottom, and various
enemies attacking from above. You move your gun sideways and shoot down
nasties as fast as you can while avoiding to get hit. Complete with a modest
assortment of silly enemies - as there should be in a game like this.

The game should work on all Macs. Several options are included to choose
between compatibility and speed, most notably the choice between Quickdraw
and direct-to-screen drawing. Macs slower than IIsi should use the latter
if possible.

Now in COLOR when available (but don't worry, it still runs on my old SE),
and with the SLIMY COD IN A TOASTER! (Fix from 2.0 to 2.0.1: the toaster
now appears in all games, not just the first after loading.)

Free for personal use. Consider paying the $15 for my shareware pack
(7 games including Bachman, MacSokoban etc) if you think it's fun.

This game requires the following minimum hardware configuration:
- A color Macintosh with a 68020 CPU or better.
- A color or grayscale display with at least 16 colors and a minimum size of
512x384 pixels.
- At least 350Kb to run.
- 80 Kb on your hard disk (I hope that's not too much to ask for... :-)

Space Junkie is compatible with all known and reasonable Macintosh
configurations. It runs under either 24-bit or 32-bit mode and with any
number of monitors. It is compatible with both System 6 and 7 and was tested
on the Macintosh SE/30, II, LC, Color Powerbook, IIfx, IIsi, Color Classic,
IIci, Centris and Quadra computers.

Space Junkie is shareware. This means that I'd like you to register by
sending me US$15 if you like Space Junkie and subsequently decide to keep
it. Personal checks or money orders are welcome. This small fee is to
encourage me to support Space Junkie and write more new exciting software.
Thanks in advance for supporting shareware. You can reach me at the

This is a mac version of the classic arcade game spacewar.  Possibly the only
game that came before this is pong.  Lately people on comp.system.mac.games
have been asking for a game like this, so here it is.  The date on it is 1988,
but it seems to be fully system 7 compatable.  If your not familiar with
spacewar, in this game you control a small ship in a manner similar to
Asteroids.  You score points by shooting another ship, and loose points
whenever you are hit.  There are options for gravity, friction, wrap around
wall, wheather shots are effected by gravity, and wheather there is a
hyperspace in the middle of the screen.  Unfourtunately, there is no 2 player
mode.  It does not explicitly state that it is shareware, but I assume it
it.  If it is discovered that this is not shareware, remove it from your
archives.  b&w.

Attached is Sparkz(tm), a remake of the arcade classic "Qix".  This
appears to be a grown-up version of "Squix", another Qix clone.

Full color, sound, and plays pretty true to the arcade original. Thanks
to Povl Pedersen for passing this my way; now everyone can enjoy it.

This is StarStormer 0.24 - a 256-colour 13" shoot-em-up.

really, really, really, really, really, like Tetris type games, call

Dear Mr. Administrator,

I submit Tetris 2000 v 1.5.
PLEASE DELETE FILE "TETRIS-2000-14.HQX"
=======================================

and put this file.

Tetris 2000 v 1.4 is the new modified version.
Several modification includes :
- the use of offscreen drawing makes the window moveable.
- user can perform background tasks.
- switching between Tetris and any background window is possible
   thus allowing user to take a rest while playing a game or take a
   rest from any application by playing the game.

Tetris 2000 v 1.5 fixes the display problem, now Tetris will run well on
display with any pixel depth.

so far the game has been tested on Mac LC, SI and Quadra 700 with
color monitor (8 bits) and system 7.0 and above. Any use out of that
configuration such as black and white monitor is not guaranted. User may use
system 6.0.7 or above. The screen configuration is 12 inch RGB color or above.

If you like this game, please send me a postcard.
This game is a shareware and free but if you wish to include this game to any
other product please inform me.

PLEASE INCLUDE THIS FILE FOR EVERY DISTRIBUTION.

The source code is available on Think C 5.0, and it cost $10.


Enjoy it.

The following is a compact pro archive containing "Tetris Light".
This is a lightweight implementation of Tetris.  It does not

Subject: Tetris Max Stereo Music file
Date: Sat, 26 Feb 1994 19:54:48 -0600 (CST)

     If you are a fan of Tetris Max 2.3, and have a stereo Mac,
then you are bound to wish for stereo background music to
supplement that which was supplied, especially if you have your
Mac connected to a stereo sound system.
     Tetris Max 2.3 allows you to select your background music.
I was impressed with one of the selections, moaned over the fact
that it was not in stereo, and decided to replace it with a stereo
version.
     This contribution supplements the "Alternate Music" sound file
provided by Tetris Max 2.3.  After deHEXing and unstuffing it with StuffIt
Expander, place it in your Tetris Max Music folder, boot the game, use the
'select background music option', click on the file you just placed in the
folder and enjoy the game.
     As an added benefit, the fidelity is much better than the
original Alternate Music file (no added hiss, distortion,
rasp, and other attributes of over-driven sound input).
     NOTE:  You should increase Tetris Max 2.3's preferred memory
allocation to 2,000 from the original 1200.
     This file was pieced together on a Mac LC475 using Movie Player,
Sound Extractor and the Apple CD300 CD ROM drive.

Honorably mentioned in the 1993 MacUser Shareware Awards, favorably
reviewed in numerous books and magazines, guaranteed to get you
addicted... it's Tetris Max! Tetris Max is an outstanding implementation
of the classic game Tetris, featuring beautiful 256-color artwork, an
original music soundtrack, awesome sound effects, and more. Find out why
many people say Tetris Max is the best Tetris they've ever played.
Tetris Max is $10 shareware (free for those people who've paid for
previous versions).

If you enjoy Tetris Max and play it often, PLEASE send in the $10
shareware fee. It is not very much compared to the cost of a commercial
game, and it motivates me to keep improving Tetris Max as well as to
work on new games. By even the most optimistic estimate, less than 2% of
the people who have older versions of Tetris Max have actually sent in
the shareware fee. If you play, please pay.

New in version 2.3:
% works in 16 colors/grays (for powerbooks and others)
% level 10 is now a little tougher
% new "faster left/right motion" option
% background music is selectable from GetFile dialog
% arrow keys can be used
% miscellaneous minor fixes and enhancements

Date: Tue, 30 Nov 1993 23:10:26 EST
From: Matthew T Diamond <[e-mail]>


3d Brick Bash! is a three-dimensional version of the old break-out game.
Version 1.1 replaces previous versions.

It requires:     Color Quickdraw, System 6.0.5+ or 7.0+, 68020 CPU or greater,
and 1,300K free memory to run in 256 colors (only 800K for 16,4, or 2 color).

New features: enhancements to make levels progress faster...
you can influence the ball speed, start play on any level previously
reached, and random targets appear from time-to-time which award goodies.
The ball generally moves and accelerates faster than before (unless you
turn this off.)

Not least, several bug fixes and an address change, too.

Shareware.  *Free for users who registered for previous versions.*
