Overview:
---------
ORBOTS for Windows V1.0 <ASP> The classic DOS game reincarnated
for Windows! Orbots for Windows is a heart pounding, brain boggling,
shoot 'em up, extravaganza. 256 color graphics are complemented with
extraordinary digital sound. An adrenaline junkies dream! You must
pilot the astro-chopper to defeat an invasion of half machine, half
organo mutants from another dimension. They have plenty of surprises
for you, and some nasty tricks for you to figure out. If you get
through their defenses, you still must face their mother ship to defeat
them. Good Luck. You'll need it!

2.1 About Shareware
Shareware is "try it before you buy it" software.
Use the program for 30 days and decide whether you'll ever use it
again. Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial
software, and the copyright holder retains all rights.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software.
Orbots the Game is a "shareware program" and is provided at no
charge to the user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with
your friends, but please do not give it away altered.
If you find this program useful and find that you are using
the Screen Savers, you must make a registration payment.
The small registration fee will license one copy for use
on any one computer at any one time. You must treat this software
just like a book. An example is that this software may be used by
any number of people and may be freely moved from one computer
location to another, so long as there is no possibility of it
being used at one location while it's being used at another.
Just as a book cannot be read by two different persons at the
same time. If you plan to keep the software, please pay the
authors. These fees are small, and support some of the brightest
programmers working today.
2.2 ASP Ombudsman Statement
This program is produced by a member of the Association of
Shareware Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the
shareware principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve
a shareware-related problem with an ASP member by contacting
the member directly, ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman
can help you resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member,
but does not provide technical support for members' products.
Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon,
MI 49442-9427 USA, FAX 616-788-2765 or send a CompuServe
message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536.
