I first played Nemesis III for the MSX (1988), but Konami made at least -* 41 * Nemesis-games (mostly named Nemesis, Gradius, Salamander, Parodius) -for systems including the Game Boy, (S)NES and Play Station. - - ->>>>>>> CONTROLS ------------------------------------------------------------- - - The universal TI-86 keys: - -Arrow keys : move -2nd : fire -ALPHA : select powerup -MORE : pause -EXIT : exit -GRAPH : teacher/boss! (press graph again to resume) - - In main menu you can press F1 to toggle b<>w. - A game can be saved by pressing F1 at the level-screen. - - ->>>>>>> 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. - - Upgrades: ARMOR | TORPEDO | WEAPON-UPG | LASER | MULTIPLES - - The upper bar on the left shows your hitpoints left (armor). The bar below -that shows the current power of your weapon. - +41 Nemesis-games - named Nemesis=Gradius, LifeForce=Salamander, Parodius - +for systems including the C64, Game Boy, (S)NES and PlayStation(2). + +>>>>>>> THA GAME ------------------------------------------------------------- + + 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? + + At the bottom you can see the current power of your weapon, your lives left, +armor left, your upgrades and score. + +>>>>>>> UPGRADES ------------------------------------------------------------- + + 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 seven levels for now, don't try to get to level eight. -Things to come: - -* save options (like b<>w) -* more LEVELS!! more enemies more upgrades more story -* maybe obstacles? -* source code release -? grayscale, sounds, multiplayer-option: probably not - Continue to send me any IDEAS and BUGS found!!
