By giving the classical Snake a new dimension, we have given it a new life. 3D graphic effects specifically designed for modern video accelerators are strengthened by 3D sound! A lot of wonderful music tracks are included in the game. Hard-nosed monsters and different bonuses all made in full 3D bring the old game to an entirely new level. The complete AxySnake distribution package includes 6 types of games. All of the games are in amazing 3D presentation. Overall, there are 80 different levels in the game! It is a very addictive, fun, colorful and realistic game. 2. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
3. HOW TO PLAY3.1 Game RulesEach game consists of several levels. To pass a level it is necessary to feed the snake and to bring its length up to the certain size. When the snake reaches the required length your friend will bring you a key to the next level. The snake must eat this key and the door to the following level will open! Avoid eating the stones - they are bad for snakeÆs health. Avoid dark parts of the wood - it is a territory of dangerous monsters. Be attentive, at various levels there are dangerous insects. Collecting prizes, you can increase your life, score and time. SCORING:
Please note: The above values are valid for default speed settings. As you increase the speed, value of all bonuses correspondingly rises. 3.2 Keyboard Controls:
3.3 Custom controls & JoystickIf you want to use a Joystick enable "Use Joystick" flag in Engine Options dialog. Use the game options ("Controls" item in the "Options"
menu) to assign a custom keyboard shortcut, joystick button or axis
to each action. Simply press the button you want to assign or move the
joystick handle on each required action.
3.4 Engine OptionsPush the "SETUP" button in start dialog to change engine options:"OK" button - Save changes and exit.
"NEXT DEVICE" button - Select 3D display rendering device. You can select a video adapter, in case your system contains more than one adapter, and a hardware acceleration or program emulation mode. "Video Mode" - Set display resolution in the game. Select lower value to increase the performance or higher value to increase picture quality. "High quality objects" - Unmark this checkbox to increase the game performance (it is recommended for processors lower then 300 MHz or if the program works in software emulation mode). "High quality textures" - Unmark this checkbox to slightly increase the game speed on low-performance graphic accelerators or when running in software emulation mode. "Use mip-mapping" - This option increases picture quality, with a minor loss of graphics performance. "Wait for vertical blank" - Synchronizes the rendering with the vertical blank status (VSYNC). On most computers enabling this flag significantly increases picture quality. However, in case of a low-performance graphic accelerator, disabling this flag can give better picture quality for some resolutions. "Sound enable" - Unmark this checkbox if you don't need sound and music. This will slightly increase the game performance. "Use Joystick" - Enables joystick support. This checkbox should not be marked if you do not use a joystick. "Joystick Sensitivity" - Select the sensitivity of the joystick axes. Experiment with it, and choose the most suitable variant for your system. 4. REGISTRATION4.1 Registration Overview AxySnake is distributed on a shareware basis. You can
