OFFENDER
by SARWAN NARINE
Missionware Software is proud to present this demo of OFFENDER.
We're looking for folks who enjoy shoot 'em up type games to take an
honest look at this game demo and to tell us what you think. We're
looking for input on such items as graphics, playability, interest
level, challenge, and so on. All comments will be passed on to the
author.
Although the game is fully playable, it limits you to a certain
depth. The full version will take you into much deeper levels of
play.
You can send your comments to us via a number of sources. On
GEnie, Missionware Software has a support topic in Cat. 2, topic 20 of
the ST RT. Or you can reach us via email at J.TRAUTSCHOLD.
Comments on BIX can be sent to us at "jtrautschold", or you can
leave comments in the atari.st conference.
Both Missionware Software and the author are present on
CompuServe. You can reach Missionware at 73250,572, or the author,
Sarwan Narine at 76675,164. Naturally you can also leave comments to
us in the ATARIARTS conference.
Have fun, and we look forward to your input.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PLAYING
* You need at least 1 meg of RAM, color monitor, double-sided
drive and a mouse or joystick.
* After unarcing the file (which you've no doubt already done)
place the 3 Offender files in either your A or B drive, switch your ST
to LOW resolution, open the floppy drive window wherever your disk
happens to be, and double-click on OFFENDER.PRG. The program should
take around 60 seconds to load.
* Active keys during introductory screens:
ESCAPE - Exit from current screen & display next screen.
SPACE - Pause current screen.
ENTER - Start Game.
* Active keys during game play:
ESCAPE - Pause game
SPACE - enter Hyperspace
ENTER - unleash "smart" bomb
R - Reset Game
* Game play: Aliens have invaded the Earth in a bid to take
control of all its natural resources. the aliens are currently
destroying all intelligent lifeforms. Your mission is to destroy the
aliens and protect and rescue the humanoids. Your fighter craft is
equipped with lasers and smart bombs, and is capable of hyperspace.
Use lasers to destroy enemies (pushbutton on joystick or left mouse
key...joystick is placed in port 1). Use smart bombs to destroy all
enemies on the screen (you only have a limited number of these though
so use them wisely!) Use hyperspace to escape immediate danger
(warning: your ship may be destroyed upon re-entry!).
If an alien captures a human, you can save the human by
"catching" him/her before they hit the ground (when alien releases
them.) Try not to kill humans...if you do the landscape starts to
break up and the aliens attack in even greater force!
Enjoy!
