1. THE STORY
---------
Manhattan 2024 AD.
One evening while scanning the cosmic air waves with his inter-
galactic radio scanner, Cyril Smith a 9 year old boy, intercepts
a message from a visiting alien scout ship to its home planet.
The message is about the impending invasion of Earth. Emulating
his favourite comic book character he dons his two way VR goggles,
picks up his trusty BB gun, and gets on his hover board. Assuming
the alias 'CYRIL CYBERPUNK', he travels to Central Park to find
the alien space craft. He boards the craft and proceeds to hijack
it, only to discover that this is a race of mutant cyborg teddy
bears from a doomed planet called 'Fluff Ball'.
And so an exciting adventure begins ...
2. THE GAME
--------
CYRIL CYBERPUNK is new generation platform game with semi-animated
comic book cutscenes between levels. The game is targeted towards
all players from the age of 6 upwards, and includes 4 levels of

CYRIL CYBERPUNK can be enjoyed by players of all ages - in fact,

The graphics are some of the highest quality that have been seen

4. HINTS ON GAMEPLAY
-----------------
The object of the game is to get through each level, with as
many points as possible, and of course, without losing lives.
At the end of some levels, are level bosses. You will need to
get past them to finish the level.
There are numerous secrets scattered throughout the levels.
Usually they are filled with goodies, so look for them. Any area
is possible to get to, even if you see it, but can't quite work
out how to get there. Keep looking, keep trying. When in doubt,
shoot or duck.
Items you can pick up along the way include keys, to allow you
through doors, health bonuses, ammunition magazines, super
shields - yeah that big green things that rotates around Cyril,
extra life bonuses (usually hidden), some cool guns, and, well
you will find the rest along the way.
Watch out for respawning enemies !
Some levels are secret. If you don't find them you'll miss
out on goodies that might help you later on in the game.
