 >>>>>>> INTRO TO NEMESIS ------------------------------------------------------
 
   Nemesis is an old arcade-game for the MSX. It was a really good game,
-that's why Konami made three Nemesis games, named Nemesis, Nemesis ][ and
-Nemesis III. This game has got some things in common with each game:
+that's why Konami made three Nemesis games, named Nemesis (1986), Nemesis ][
+(1987) and Nemesis III ('88).
 
-* Nemesis' bad graphics, and worse. But what do you expect of a simple TI86.
-* Nemesis ][ variety of ship-upgrades and cheats (not yet finished: beta v)
-* The BAD storyline of Nemesis 3 (not yet finished: beta version)

@@ -22,41 +22,61 @@ Nemesis III. This game has got some things in common with each game:
 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:
 
-Arrow keys: stupid question, but ok: self-destruct your ship (no, really)
-F1: fire your weapon (bullets are blastalot-class and infinate)
-F2: enable the currently selected upgrade
+Arrow keys: stupid question, self-destructs your ship of course
+2nd: fire your weapon (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
 
-  No pause key yet. But the game does halt when you press the Down and Left-
-keys simoultaniously. No it's not a bug, I did that on purpose. Just kidding,
-can anybody help me? I also noticed the same problem in Galaxian for the 86.
 
->>>>>>> SCORE-BAR -------------------------------------------------------------
+>>>>>>> PICKUPS AND SO --------------------------------------------------------
+
+  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. The number in the first icon shows your shield-points left.
+This icon can be chosen more than once, to increase your shield-points.
+
+  Other upgrades: ┌───────┬─────────┬───────┬───────┬───────────┐
+                  │ ARMOR │ TORPEDO │ EMPTY │ LASER │ MULTIPLES │
+                  └───────┴─────────┴───────┴───────┴───────────┘
 
-  The first icon shows your shield-points left (press F2 when you picked one
-pickup to increase shield-points) and the second icon shows whether you have
-torpedoes on your ship (needs two pickups to activate).
+  All upgrades and pickups will be lost when your ship is destroyed!
 
-  I'll make more options later, but as you may or may not know: this is still a
-beta version.
 
 >>>>>>> BETA STUFF ------------------------------------------------------------
 
-  There are just seven levels for now, don't try to get to level eight.
+  There are just eight levels for now, don't try to get to level nine.

+* more LEVELS!! more enemies more pickups

 * storyline
-* pause- and teacher-key
+* teacher-key or save game
+* save names with hi-score
