- PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK: is this better or should I stick to B on W??
-I've included a short version history in this readme so you can see what's new
-and what's not (TI-News hadn't got a clue last update).

+got some good beta-testers!), bosses, weapon-upgrades, LEFT+DOWN-bug fixed
+(THANKS2 BRIAN KOROPOFF!), teacher key, hiscore name, much more. Again thank
+you all and keep sending me stuff! I really appreciate it!
>>>>>>> INTRO TO NEMESIS -----------------------------------------------------
Nemesis is an old arcade-game for the MSX. It was a really good game,
that's why Konami made not only the three Nemesis games for the MSX
(Nemesis I (1986), ][ (1987) and III ('88)) but also four more Nemesis-clones
-for the MSX (Salamander, Parodius, Space Manbow and Life Force) as well as
-versions for the: ZX Spectrum (2 versions); MSX (4x); Comodore 64 (2x);
-arcades (2x); PC Engine (4x); Game Boy (3x); NES (4x); SNES (4x); and
-Play Station (11x) (as far as I'm aware of).
+for the MSX as well as 36 versions for other systems including the Game Boy,
+(S)NES and Play Station (as far as I'm aware of).
>>>>>>> CONTROLS -------------------------------------------------------------
- You control a hi-tech upgradable vessel (storyline coming soon) and you have
-blast 'n evade your way through a lot of enemies. Some enemies leave pickups
-which you can collect in order to power-up your ship. Keys* are:
+ The universal TI-86 keys:
-Arrow keys: stupid question, self-destructs your ship of course
-2nd: fire your weapon(s) (disruptor as default, upgradable to laserbeam)
-ALPHA: enable the currently selected upgrade
-MORE: pause, press Enter to continue
-EXIT: resets your calc and clears your ROM memory (just keep playing :)
+Arrow keys : move
+2nd : fire
+ALPHA : select powerup
+MORE : pause
+EXIT : exit
+GRAPH : teacher! (press graph again to resume)
- * tried to use the universal TI-86 key meanings
+ In main menu you can press F1 to toggle b<>w (not saved yet).
>>>>>>> PICKUPS AND SO -------------------------------------------------------
pressing ALPHA. The number in the first icon shows your shield-points left.
This icon can be chosen more than once, to increase your shield-points.
