- INTRODUCTION
-
-
- The Mr. Men Olympics, designed by Inkie and Amitri, is a sports
- simulator based on the classic childrens books the 'Mr. Men'. The game
- has been written entirely in AMOS PROFESSIONAL. The game play
- throughout the game is simple, but on some events a great deal of skill
- will be needed for success. We have used the classic waggle control
- system on most of the events, as this is the system to be found on all
- the best sports simulators. We as a group would like to express are
- thanks to Mr. Roger Hargreaves for the inspiration he has given us for
- this game. The Mr. Men Olympics has taken over a year to develop, it
- started out as a Unity Olympic Challenge, where the team members were
- given their own Olympic challenge. Slowly the games design developed
- into the Mr. Men Olympics. 12 Months later and here we are, probably
- the best sports simulator in the Public Domain.

-
- SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
-
- The Mr. Men Olympics is a graphically intensive game for this reason an
- Amiga with at leased 1 Megabyte of memory is needed. This can be 512K
- chip memory with at least 512k fast memory or 1 Meg chip memory. 2 disk
- drives are recommended but not necessary. As far as we know the game
- will work on any Amiga with 1 Megabyte of RAM, however we have not had a
- chance to test it on the 1000,500+,600,2000,3000 or 4000 range. I think
- you can assume it will work though.

-
-
-

- possible, until Mr. Rush crosses the finish line.
-
-
-
- Event 2 :- WEIGHT LIFTING

- can repeat it all again at a harder level.
-
-

- Event 3 :- THE HAMMER
-
- STARRING MR. DIZZY
-
- No waggling is needed in this event. Timing is of the essence so a good
- angle and distance can be achieved. Press fire to start him spinning,
- when he reaches the edge of the circle press and hold fire to get your
- desired angle (remember he needs to be facing the right way).
-
-
-
- Event 4 :- POLE VAULT

- STARRING MR. NOSEY

- The pole vault is a simple event, you can make use of Mr. Noseys extra
- large nose to complete the event successfully. Simply waggle your

- line, quickly press the fire button to bounce him over the bar. So long
- as your approach was fast enough you should be able to clear the bar.
