+ | |||
+ | 2. Game menus | ||

+ | picture you will get to the MAIN MENU. You can move up, or down by using | ||
+ | the ARROW KEYS. Activate the selected icon by pressing ENTER. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Tip: To quit the game, just push F10 (several times if necessary). | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2.2 The options menu | ||

+ | Time = The amount of time in a multiplayer game. | ||
+ | Starting Cash = The amount of cash in multiplayer game. | ||

+ | weapons and technologies. Information on the makers (us). | ||

+ | |||
+ | 3. Controls | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3.1 Keys | ||
+ | |||
+ | In the "Redefine Keys" of the Options menu you can change all the | ||
+ | keys for multi- or singleplayer mode. You can also control a player | ||
+ | with a joystick if you have one. When a key is asked just move the | ||
+ | joystick to asked direction. If you want to define that a player | ||
+ | also stops when using a joystick press F1 when STOP-button is asked | ||
+ | (F2 for joystick 2) Before you can use a joystick you MUST calibrate | ||
+ | it. Use the CALIBRA.EXE in the game directory to do it. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you have problems with joystick (e.g. the game detects a joystick | ||
+ | even if you don't have one) you can disable it by giving "-nojoy" as | ||
+ | a command line parameter to MB.EXE (MB.EXE -nojoy). | ||
+ | |||
+ | During the game you don't have to hold down the keys so | ||
+ | you shouldn't have any problems in multiplayer mode. | ||
+ | (Some keyboards experience 'key lockout' if many keys are | ||
+ | pushed down at once.) | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. Playing the game | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4.1 Shopping | ||
+ | |||
+ | The game begins in the weapons shop. Here players can get their | ||
+ | favourite weapons and bombs. If there are more than two players | ||
+ | the selection will be displayed twice. The cursor can be moved by | ||
+ | with keys selected for individual players. Use the "drop bomb" key to | ||
+ | purchase your selection and "select" key to sell it. To begin the game | ||
+ | select the "LEAVE"-icon, or press the ESC key. | ||
+ | |||
+ | By buying rockpicks/powerdrills you can increase your power permanently. | ||
+ | Rockpicks/powerdrills found on a level boost your power for that level | ||
+ | only. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4.2 The game | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Multiplayer mode | ||
+ | The game begins after the players leave the shop. The players | ||
+ | find themselves at the far corners of the screen. You should move | ||
+ | your guy around and collect as many treasures as you can in the | ||
+ | limited time available. You might also try to kill the other players. | ||
+ | If you are able to slaughter your opponent (before he/she slaughters you) | ||
+ | you will recieve a large amount of cash. The level will end if one of | ||
+ | the following options are filled: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. The time runs out. | ||
+ | 2. All the treasures are collected. | ||
+ | 3. Less than two players survive. | ||
+ | |||
+ | After completing a level you are automatically transported to | ||
+ | the shop to purchase more bombs. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Information on the players is displayed next to the top edge of | ||
+ | the screen. The large screen shows the currently selected bomb. | ||
+ | Digging power and your current cash are displayed under your name. | ||
+ | A bar graph displays the players health. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When all the rounds have been played, the winner is the player with | ||
+ | the most cash or the most wins in the seperate levels. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Singleplayer mode | ||
+ | |||
+ | In singleplayer mode you have to complete 15 monster-filled levels. | ||
+ | In oneplayer mode you have three lives. Each level begins from the upper | ||
+ | lefthand corner. Your mission is simply to find the door that leads to | ||
+ | the next level. The door is a black square with grey borders. Notice that | ||
+ | the location of the exit may varie from game to game. Players who excell | ||
+ | get their names on the revered Hall-of-fame list. Your position on the | ||
+ | list is defined by how far you get in the game. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5. Hints | ||
+ | |||
+ | Here are some simple but useful hints: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. Collect the most valuable treasures first. | ||
+ | 2. Try to get as much digging power as possible. | ||
+ | 3. Don't waste all your money. The player with the most | ||
+ | money at the end wins. | ||
+ | 4. Remember that even the smallest bombs are sometimes | ||
+ | invaluable. | ||
+ | 5. Be carefull not to blow up your treasures. | ||
+ | 6. Always try to find the quickest route through rock. | ||
+ | Edges crumble easyer than normal rock. | ||
+ | 7. If your opponent has collected much more treasure than you... | ||
+ | Go kamikaze. | ||
+ | 8. Try to get your get your opponent to follow you. When he's | ||
+ | right behind you, drop a MINE! | ||
+ | 9. First trap your opponent in urethane. Then drop a barrel of napalm | ||
+ | next to him. The urethane won't stop the napalm from advancing, | ||
+ | giving your opponent a nice tan! | ||
+ | 10. Try to surround your opponent with remote bombs or mines. | ||
+ | 11. Its better to buy a rockdrill than two large rockpicks. | ||
+ | 12. If your opponent is just digging up a treasure you can't get to, | ||
+ | blow it up! | ||
+ | 13. While escaping from napalm try to run into a large room, or | ||
+ | try to make the corridor larger. You can also try to block the | ||
+ | corridor with rocks or steel plating. (Steel plates can be | ||
+ | purchased from the shop.) | ||
+ | |||
+ | 6. The mapeditor (MINEDIT) | ||
+ | |||
+ | With MINEDITyou can edit old levels and create new ones. | ||
+ | |||
+ | How MINEDIT works: | ||
+ | |||
+ | You must have a mouse to use MINEDIT. Of course if your playing | ||
+ | this game, you propably have one already. | ||
+ | |||
+ | On the info bar you can see a list of objects, this is a kind | ||
+ | of "palette" where you can select the object of your choice. | ||
+ | You can select individual colors for both mouse buttons. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can also select diffirent brush types from other buttons | ||
+ | situated on the info bar. The first button selects a normal brush | ||
+ | for detail work. You can adjust the size of this brush from | ||
+ | the adjuster located in the upper righthand corner. | ||
+ | The next button selects a square brush. The thrid button | ||
+ | represents a can of paint. Selecting this activates the "fill" | ||
+ | option. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Special functions: | ||
+ | F2 = Mirrors the left side of the level to the right. | ||
+ | F3 = Places one random treasure on to the level. | ||
+ | F7 = Smaller brush. | ||
+ | F8 = Larger brush. | ||
+ | F9 = Clears the screen. | ||
+ | Z = Places one random treasure under the cursor. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Warning! Obs! Huom! Achtung! Do not place too many monsters or | ||
+ | especially barrels on the level. The game might slow down or even | ||
+ | get really screwed up. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Without a mouse?!?!? | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you don't have a mouse you can get help by pressing F1. | ||
+ | A short description: | ||
+ | The keys 'A' - '*' select diffirent objects. | ||
+ | With space you can turn 'continuous paint' on or off. | ||
+ | 'R' activates square draw. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
