INSTALLATION ______________________________________________________________________________________ To install FUNNY BALL into your computer, just unzip Funny.zip archive into any directory on your hard drive and then run the setup program. If you will decide later to remove this application from your system, just remove it using Your control panel (Add/remove programms topic). SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ______________________________________________________________________________________ * This game runs quite nicely even on a 486DX-100 system. * Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows 98 or Windows NT. * Sound card and video card with 1Mb VRAM or more. PLAYING ______________________________________________________________________________________ In two words your goal in the game is to transfer the ball from level to level. But how can you transfer the ball to the next level? After starting (for start you should press the "GAME" button in main window) you will see the set of blocks, vertical and horizontal. You can move horizontal blocks to the left or to the right and you can move vertical blocks up or down by clicking on the suitable side of a block. In that way you will help the ball to roll down to the point of transfering. So, may be you think, that your task is to easy isn't it? But I must to say that sometimes the task will be very hard or even unpossible. So, if the current level is too hard or too easy to you, you may skip this level by clicking on the 'NEXT' button. NEW IN VERSION 1.2 ______________________________________________________________________________________ 1. 3 different levels of difficulty. 2. New skin. 3. "Next" button is on the game window now. 4. The glitch with random generator (solid line of blocks) is fixed.
