Introduction:
_____________
PWilly is a classical platform Run'N'Jump game.
You have collect all the flashing items in the level.
After you have collect all items the exit will begin
to flash. You can then use the exit to advance to
the next level. You have to avoid collision with
some obstacles and enemies.
If you touch them you will lose a life.
Use of Keyboard/pen/...
_______________________
Use the hardkeys to navigate Willy around the level.
PWilly supports the WorldwideWidgetWorks Gamepad.
In the main menu and the option menu you can make your selections
using the hardkeys and using the pen.
The Menus
_________
In the main menu you can select your player the
level set and you can resume games or start a new
one. From the main menu you can open the options
menu in which you can select the amplitude of the
sound an music and see some registration info.
From within the game you can press the menu icon
to open the main menu at any time.
You have 4 different players. For each player the
current level and number of lifes left in each
level set is stored. So if you leave the game
you can resume the game at the same level you left
it. If you do not change the player or level set you
will even resume the level at the place you left it.
If you select another level set with the same player
and you resume the game, the level of the level set you
played before will be remembered.
I'll give you an example:
You played "level set a" and reached level 4 with
3 lifes left. Then you open the main menu and you
select "level set b" and "resume game". You will start
with the first level in this level set and with the
initial number of 6 lifes. You advance to level 2
with 6 lifes left. Then you leave the game. Next
time you start the game you select "level set a" and
"resume game" you will then be back at level 4 with 3 lifes
left.
If you select "New Game" all level sets of the current
player will be set back to the first level (so be
careful with this button).
The Game:
_________
Use the following keys:
Datebook - left
Phonebook - right
Up - Up (on ladders or in Underwater-Levels)
Down - Down (on ladders or in Underwater-Levels)
To Do List - Jump
Memo pad - Jump
Avoid any of the moving enemies (you have no friends)
and avoid the obstacles like cactus, spikes, ...
Collect all of the flashing items. In the upper status
line you see how many you have collected and how much
are missing.
The upper status line also shows the time that is left
to finish the current level. The lower status line
shows the current level set (they are numbered in
alphabetical order; so "level set 0" is 0, "level set a"
is 1, ...) and the current level within the level set
you are playing. The lower status line shows also the
number of lifes left.
