- PIZZA WORM 2.0
- (*Public Beta*)
-
- Remember to look for my next product Arcade Volley Ball 2000!
- @
- You can control the worm by using cursor keys and your mission is to try 1/8
- to eat as many pizzas as possible. (Player two keys are Z and C)
-
- Write PWORM ? to find out the game options / parameters.
-
- If the game halts on your machine, first disable sound system using parameter
- /N (I dont know how well does the Midas sound system work)
-
- !!! IMPORTANT, IF SOUND DOES NOT WORK !!!
-
- Currently known bugs are that this version of midas sound system won't work
- with SB16, AWE, PAS16 soundcards. So don't wonder if you don't hear any sound.
