Welcome to the world of Door-to-Door sales!
People hate door-to-door salesmen, and some go to extreme lengths to
make them feel unwelcome. Many salesmen just give up in cases like
this.
Enter our hero.
Super Sales Acer is determined not to let a few little obstacles stop him.
He vows to make his sale!
The game.
Super Sales Acer requires a reasonable IBM clone. I've run it on a 4 MHZ
XT, but it's a tad slow.
You NEED VGA or CGA. I strongly suggest VGA, CGA support is an experimental
hack. But it runs.
To run the game, enter "SALEACER" at the DOS prompt.
If you have CGA, enter "SALEACER c"
If you have CGA *AND* a slow computer, enter "SALEACER s" - note that
many graphics will garble more easily, but it'll run faster.
The object of every level is to touch all the special bricks and turn them
into ordinary ones. Why? Wouldn't be much of a game otherwise. Avoid
everything that moves... here are the enemies to watch for:
Rat - runs randomly back and forth, can't make up his mind. Likes to nibble
toes.
Crab - wanders back and forth
Bomb - walks hesitantly towards you, fuse ignites when close. Get away! He
WILL explode! :)
Trap - large bear traps with sharp teeth waiting for a careless salesman
Crystal - large, pretty, and very sharp. Jump over them.
Icicle - will fall when you get close
Spot - the pet of the home, guarding the door
---
You can also ride on moving platforms to get where you need to go. often you
will have to. Stay out of the water and the lava - salesmen don't like
either one.
If you finish the ninth level (getting past Spot), you make it to the door.
You'll get some information, too.

Keys:
E = up
S = left D = right
X = down
SPACE = jump
Press a movement key ONCE to move - DO NOT hold it down!!
Press the same key AGAIN to stop.
If you don't like these keys, write me and complain. :)
