This beta has +ten levels, and should never crash your calc. Report any bugs or imperfections +to me. Thanks, and have fun! + (No comments on levels, storyline and difficulty plz, working on that) >>>>>>> INTRO TO NEMESIS ----------------------------------------------------- Nemesis is an old arcade-game for many platforms, originally for arcades. I first played Nemesis III for the MSX (1988), but Konami made at least -41 Nemesis-games - named Nemesis=Gradius, Salamander=LifeForce, Parodius - -for systems including the Game Boy, (S)NES and Play Station. - +41 Nemesis-games - named Nemesis=Gradius, LifeForce=Salamander, Parodius - +for systems including the C64, Game Boy, (S)NES and PlayStation(2). >>>>>>> THA GAME ------------------------------------------------------------- - ARROWS : move - 2nd : fire + After selecting NEW GAME, you have to choose your ship to fly with. Note +the last two are HARDCORE-ships, which have a lot less armor than the others. + Before a level starts, you can press [F1] to save the game. If you choose +CONTINUE GAME later, you'll start at that level. + In the game itself you just have to keep yourself from getting destroyed. +The following keys might come in handy: + + ARROWS : move your ship + 2nd : fire weapons ALPHA : select powerup MORE : pause (change contrast, toggle B<>W) GRAPH : teacher/boss! (press graph again to resume) EXIT : whooo, what does _this_ button do? - Collect the pickups enemies leave after they're destroyed to upgrade your -ship. The highlighted icon in the score bar (bottom) can be activated by -pressing ALPHA. + At the bottom you can see the current power of your weapon, your lives left, +armor left, your upgrades and score. - Upgrades: ARMOR | TAIL-BEAM | WEAPON-UPG | LASER | MULTIPLES +>>>>>>> UPGRADES ------------------------------------------------------------- - The upper bar on the left shows your hitpoints left (armor). The bar below -that shows the current power of your weapon. + Flying over a small pickup will increase your armor and activate the shield +for a short time. The shield will reduce any damage, and completely absorb +enemy bullets in normal mode. + After defeating a boss, a larger pickup will appear, which you can use to +upgrade your ship. These upgrades are: + 1 - BEAM: The standard weapon all vessels are equipped with. Selecting this +icon will upgrade your weapon to a more powerful one. This can only be done +nine times. + 2 - LASER: A direct weapon which replaces the beam-weapon. Can also be +upgraded upto nine times. + 3 - MULTIPLES: or "options". These will follow your ship and fire when you +do, effectively doubling your damage. You can have as much as four of them. + 4 - SCORE: If you collect four pickups, your score will be increased by 250 +points. This is for the real hardcore shmuppers who don't need no skinkin' +upgrades. >>>>>>> BETA STUFF ----------------------------------------------------------- - There are just five levels for now, don't play beyond there. In future -versions I'll add more levels and enemies, maybe obstacles, and I'll release -the source code. I don't think I will add greyscale, sound or a multiplayer -option. - Continue to send me any IDEAS and BUGS found!! Or send me you like this -program, or even send me something if you don't.
