Notes on Copyright:
-------------------
Space-Rescue is SHAREWARE. Everybody is allowed to copy it freely (except
for the ways mentioned below). If you like it, please send the amount of
money you think Space-Rescue is worth to aboves adress. This version
features four different level. For 10$ (or the equivalent in any
currency), you get a disk containing an (minor) update, four new,
challenging (and longer) levels, and the full Share-Version of the Soko-Ban
like Shareware game 'Roll On' V1.3 (Version 1.1 appeared on Fish-Disk 302)
with now 21 Levels nowhere else to be found.
When sending cheques please add 2$ handling-charge.
You are allowed to copy "Space-Rescue" for private purposes, upload it to
your local BBS etc. You are not allowed to enclose "Space-Rescue" in
Public-Domain libraries or other Program libraries (except for Networks)
without the written permission of the author. If you want to sell
"Space-Rescue" by other means than by selling Public-Domain-Disks
containing the game, or to give it along with any comercial products like
computer-maganzines etc., you need my written permission too. (Normally
there's no problem involved in getting this permission - just send me a
Fido-Netmail and I'll send you a fax). I just want to get an overview
about who earns more money with this game than me :-)
In any case you are allowed to copy "Space-Rescue" only when copying this
file also.
Notes on compatibility:
-----------------------
"Space-Rescue" automatically notices if started on an NTSC- or PAL-System.
On PAL-Systems it uses the full screen. On NTSC it switches to overscan.
Nevertheless, the sound is playing slightly faster on NTSC-Machines. Users
with just 512 KByte of ram will have to disconnect all external drives and
start "Space-Rescue" out of the CLI. When you have got more memory of
course, you can start "Space-Rescue" directly from the workbench.
"Space-Rescue" should run on Systems with Turboboards, memory expansions,
Kickstart 2.0 etc. (Sorry I could not test it on an A3000).
Warning!!! Space-Rescue totally turns of Multitasking. Please wait for all
----------- other disk-activities to stop before starting the game.
After being started, Space-Rescue can by stopped at any time by pressing
the left Mousebutton.
Space-Rescue is distributed without any warranty.

Instructions
============
Space-Rescue is some kind of answer to Anders Bjerins 'Mini-Blast'. Your
task is to maneuver an helicopter throughout a cave without getting to
touch anything. Several obstacles make it difficult to get through all the
caves. Some of them can be shot using your build in weapon, others can't.
Further you will have to watch your fuel. Your Helicopter has an limited
amount of fuel (unleaded of course :-) which can be refilled at the marked,
white places.
In higher levels, there can be several ways to go. Watch out which way you
choose, for there are some ways, you can only complete, whe you refilled
your fuel at the right time (not too late, and not too early).
Nevertheless you can normally get more points when flying the more
dangerous ways.
During the title-picture ist displayed, you can choose the level of
difficulty by pressing [F1] to [F3], which will determine the helicopters
size. You can pause the game by pressing [P]. Pressing the left
mouse-button during the title sequence or in the game will get you out of
'Space-Rescue'.
In order to let you get an better overview about the cave and all what's in
it, your helicopter features an short-range scanner (placed in the upper
right half of the screen).
When a level is done, a notice will be displayed at the same location. You
now have to land at the nearest refuelling-point and press the fire-button
to proceed to the next cave. If you think the game is to hard, try finding
the cheat-mode :-). In general: If it moves shoot it, if it doesn't move
blast it.
Thanks to Stephan Polster for testing the NTSC-mode and Andreas Dubhorn for
drawing the helicopter
and to all those who send the Shareware-fee !!!
