Note the icon in the top-right (level mode). At the moment it's on 'bitmap', which means that levels are taken from 50 pre-drawn images, but if it were set to 'generate', then levels would be randomly generated on demand. The information screen, shown between levels. The upper portion gives information about the next level, and the lower part provides an update of the leaderboard. At the moment, Barry's winning (the names can be easily changed). Harold violently explodes after taking too much punishment from Humperdink. Harold showers Humperdink and Rupert with a 'Fountain', a weapon that detonates on impact into half a dozen seperate missiles. Note that this level has been internally generated, ie. it is not a bitmap level. Barry cruelly napalms Egbert. Notice the colourful background, which scrolls independently from the main landscape, creating a parallax effect. Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. Philip K. Dick
