Wheelie - Licenced Exlusively on 1/9/94 to
------------------------------------------
F1 LICENCEWARE, 31 WELLINGTON RD, EXETER, DEVON. EX2-9DU
AND OFFICIAL DISTRIBUTERS OF F1 LICENCEWARE PRODUCTS.
----------------------------------------------------------
I hope you are enjoying this rendition of the classic Wheelie.
Be sure to switch off external drives, as maximum use has been
made of the 1 meg of memory.
All files on this disk are required by Wheelie and it will not
work if ANY of them are removed.
The speed of the game had to be reduced due to unacceptable
flicker with the bobs in AMOS.
Tips:
Try not to use FREEZE at all! - Unless gas is close by.
Watch the fuel and if possible save every other gas for the
return journey.
Approach the hedgehogs and wallabies from a distance, allowing
you to turn around or continue if you have timed it correctly.
It is best to wheelie and gather enough speed to pass under
the wildlife quickly, before slowing slightly in order to
bring the front wheel down.
Slow down in good time for drops, ice and jumps.
The key is to be patient, and lives will not be lost.
Wheels mean extra lives! An average of three can be collected
for each level.
Once past an obstacle (e.g., over the tip of a drop), you may
accelerate to top speed. Be prepared to slow down if anything
is in the way!! You should practice this because you will
have to burn it to beat the Ghostrider.
If you think the maps are massive, then remember the original?
The password for level two is based on the best British music-
makers in the world.
If a bee below your tunnel is in the way and there are no
other exits, go away and come back and there may be another
animal there. Beware, doing this liberally can drink your
fuel!
The panel:
The Revs Per Minute bar shows your revs, and your two gears,
while the Miles Per Hour bar gives your overall speed.
Use these bars for speed control.
Keep an eye on the Fuel bar!
Your score increments for certain obstacles, and is indexed
to the distance covered - one point for every couple of
screens or so.
The up and down arrows show up when selecting up/down on the
joystick at junctions.
The target score is the highest score so far since you loaded
Wheelie and thus is the target to beat.
Goodbye, and keep reading Grapevine - available in the public
domain.
Lee Powis.
