SNARF 2.03
Distribution information
This is an arcade style game for the IBM PC family of compatible
computers.
The general idea of the game is this: you have to run around through
various mazes (levels) picking up treasure (rings and crowns) while
avoiding the Snarfs. You can shoot the Snarfs, but you only get points
for the treasure, not for the Snarfs. Each time you're touched by a
Snarf, you're "tagged". You start with a "tag count" of 50. Each time
you're tagged the count is decremented. If you get tagged when the
count is 0, the game is over. You can get "healed" at a first-aid
station (your tag count is pumped back up to 50). First-aid is only
available every two to four mazes. The color of the top and bottom
bars on the display change with each tag. Snarf 2.0 allows the user
to create new levels for the game.
Program requirements:
IBM PC/XT/AT compatible.
EGA or VGA compatible display adapter (with a minimum of 128K
of RAM on the display adapter; early IBM EGA cards
will not work). It will NOT work on CGA, MDA, or
Hercules display adapters.
SNARF 2.0 is being distributed as SHAREWARE. You may use the program
for a period of 3 days, after which you must either register the
program with the author or stop using it. To register the program,
send $15 in U.S. funds to:

The distribution files are:
SNARF200.EXE the game program
SNARF200.DOC the game documentation/manual
REGISTER.DOC a registration form that can be printed
VENDOR.DOC this file of general information
The game package, which MUST include the files SNARF200.EXE (the game),
SNARF200.DOC, and REGISTER.DOC (the registration form) may be
freely copied and distributed. These three files may be re-archived
to better suit a given distribution system, but the files may not be
modified in any other way. No distributor may charge more than $6 for
the distribution of this program, and that fee in no way reduces the
shareware registration fee owed to the author by the user.
The registered version of Snarf (which is NOT shareware and may NOT
be distributed except by the author) contains at LEAST 20 levels and
does NOT contain the "shareware reminder" screens at game end.
