-
- 1.- REQUIREMENTS
-
- You need mainly two things. Windows 95 and the Visual Basic 5.0 RunTime. You can
- get the last one in almost all magazine┤s CD-ROM, or in our Web page. Remember that
- perhaps you already have this RunTime so first of all try to find it in you own hard
- disk (you have to find "msvbvm50.dll" in your path).
-
-
- 2.- INTRODUCTION
- Game Goal:
-
- You have to put together 3 or more equal pieces per shot, and you will win the
- game when all the screen is empty. It seems easy but you have to know that less
- Bloobs used means more points in the score and vice-versa.
- Remerber that you can see the next piece in the low-right corner and take note
- of it when you shoot.
-
- Good Luck !.
-
-
- 3.- CONTROLS
-
- Keyboard:
- ESC - Enables/Disables the cursor.
-
- Mouse:
-
- Left/Right - Move the gun left/right in order to get the best angle.
- Left Button - Shoot the piece .
-
- Score:
- 3 pieces on line - 10 points
- 4 pieces on line - 17 points
- 5 pieces on line - 26 points
- 6 pieces on line - 37 points
- 7 pieces on line - 50 points
- 8 pieces on line - ┐┐┐Imagine???
-
- NOTE: If you get cut off pieces, this pieces will fall down giving you a lot of
- points. Exactly the number of pieces fallen multiply by 10 (per piece!!).
- So this is the big trick to broke the highscore table. ?8)
