PART 1: OVERVIEW
----------------
Luma Cycles is a fast paced, addictive game based on the popular Tron-
type Light Cycles games. Luma Cycles goes one step further--it has multiple
levels, up to five smart computer controlled enemies with different movement
patterns and speeds. Gone are the days of surround-type games where you
start at the same spot each game and so does the one computer opponent. Now,
with the level creator (included with registered version) you can make
an infinite amount of levels (well, about 32,000 of them... :-)
PART 2: INSTRUCTIONS
--------------------
I think the average person will find Luma Cycles not to difficult to play--
just to master. Here are the instructions...
Use the ARROWS to change direction when moving. Don't hold down the arrow
keys--just press them when you want to change direction.
Press the SPACE BAR to move almost three times faster.
Press ESC during game play to exit.
Press CTRL to slow down game (if it is too fast for you!)
Press ALT to speed up game (if on very slow computer or too easy!)
On the options screen, you can enter a password of a level (seen during play
at the bottom left of the screen) to start at that level. Then (when back
at the options screen) start game play to start there. NOTE: If you use
a password, you will not be able to get a hi score.
There is a free player at level 5 and level 10.
Make sure you run SOUNDSET.EXE to select your port and irq for your sound
blaster compatable card. Then run CYCLES.EXE to play! Have fun.
PART 3: REGISTRATION
--------------------
To register, send a check or money order in U.S. funds in the amount of
$25.00 to:
Marvin S. Chomer
302 South Military St.

If sending a personal check, please allow time for the check to clear.
When registered, you will recieve 30 new levels plus the Luma Cycles
Level Creator that I used to create the levels for the game. THE GAME
ONLY SHIPS ON 3.5" DISK! If you still only have 5.25" disk, join the 90's!
Use the order form (ORDER.FRM) when ordering Luma Cycles.
Registration also insures that I will write better versions of this game plus
other games.
