- Welcome to the wonderful world of DOTTS!
- When you were a kid (or if you still are!) you probably remember
- playing this age-old game of "dots" or "dotz". You know, where you took
- a piece of chalk, a brush, and had competitions with all of your
- friends? Playing this game may just bring back some of those memories.
-
- Playing is simple. Players take turns placing lines between
- the dots. You can only place one line at a time, unless you complete
- a square; each time you complete a square you get to go again. The object
- is to complete more squares than your opponent.
-
- The game starts out at a very fast pace because there is such
- a large playing area, but soon you will be pondering your next move as
- if you were playing chess. HINT: Keep as far away from your opponent
- as long as possible (not physically mind you, but on the game board. Unless
- of course your opponent sm... never mind).
-
- That's about it ... easy huh?
-
- The game pointer will automatically change to indicate which
- player is up, and a score tally is kept in the lower right corner of
- the screen.

- PROGRAM NOTES:
- --------------
-
- Sorry this is strictly a two-player game. We originally planned
- to add artificial intelligence, but it just never came about. This
- project was actually written in 1994 over a period of about two days,
- but got lost somewhere in one of my disk boxes. We decided to release it
- as is, since I know if we waited for the artificial intelligence module,
- you'd never see the product!
-
- This program was written in C using MANX AZTEC C V3.3 (originally)
- and then recompiled with V5.2. The windows and menus were designed with
- the aid of a wonderful program, Power Windows V3.1. The brushes were
- drawn using DeluxePaint IV!.
-
- This is the first "official" release for Legendary Design
- Technologies, but we are planning on releasing a slew of new products
- in 1995. Look for us, drop us a line, or buy us a coffee!
-
- Thanks heaps!
