- Just a note (somehow I came on here with "49 new messages" and the latest
- was that last post from me!!).. I've been working alot on the
- instruction manual for CrashMan! and have even made a few DDIII fonts
- just for it. I'm still not sure how I'm going to get this program
- around. I could do it one of several ways (this is a LOT like how David
- Richardson distributes DDIII's User Guide).. I could send people a copy
- of the game one disk, as well as another disk (or on the flippy side of
- the one, if the game does only end up taking one side) which would
- contain the text files to be printed, and all of the DDIII fonts used.
- Of course this'd require they have the registered version of DDIII.
- Alternately I could send out the disk with a photocopy of the printed
- manual (which would cost a tad more because of the copies).
-
- Then there's the PD version (I'm pretty set on having a PD version and a
- fully playable registered version) which COULD contain the full
- documents, but (the few pages, they may be) that'd take up a bit of space
- I could always have one ARC be the game with a short README file and
- another be the full DDIII printable docs.
-
-
- Damn this is confusing!! How should I do this?! Does all of the
- above sound good, because it'd be very little trouble.
-
-
- BTW: still need some music! (I have the Tetris song music lying around
- and (hopefully) easily fittable into the program, and I've also (once
- again!) stolen the "P.10" file from the Expo '91 Demo and stuck it in the
- game (as title music)) Again, raw note (0-255) and note-length
- data'd be just fine with me!
-
- Thanx... this game should be completed within the
- month. (I HOPE!)
