started in less than 16-bit color..

2) SK-111 'Star Killer' <Who is W. Mike Hare?>
I am a free-lance developer who has been working professionally in
Windows since v3.0, and personally since 2.x (before icons!). I also an
avid gamer, and a wanna-be game developer. Although my true game interests
lie more in strategy, simming, and modem wargames, this simple little arcade
game is intended to be a 'showcase' of a sort, an initial foray into the
white-hot world of 32-bit Windows gaming. Contact me if you can help in
my pursuit of a game developing dream.
I am also available for very reasonably priced contract
application development, and feel free to contact me about that also.
3) SK-111 'Star Killer' <Distribution Information>
You are free to distribute SK-111 'Star Killer' without restriction,
as long as you do not sell it.
Disk Vendors and other (pay) distribution operators may not charge more
than 5$ (U.S. dollars) for the service of distributing SK-111 'Star Killer'
unless SK-111 'Star Killer' is included with other similar programs
(as in the case of a shareware CD-Rom or the like).
If you are a computer salesperson, feel free to give this game away
with new '95 equipped computers, so that the customer will have something
to play, or run it at the computer shows instead of those old gifs you
demo now. (Please, I'm tired of seeing those things.)
4) SK-111 'Star Killer' <Legal Issues>
DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of SK-111 'Star Killer' must accept this disclaimer of warranty:
"SK-111 'Star Killer' is supplied as is."
The author disclaims all warranties, expressed or implied, including,
without limitation, the warranties of merchantability and of fitness for
any purpose.
The author assumes no liability for damages, direct or consequential,
which may result from the use of SK-111 'Star Killer'."
5) SK-111 'Star Killer' <What is a 'High or True Color video mode'?>
This refers to the display mode of windows.
(High Color = 16bit = 32k or 65k colors.)
(True Color = 24bit = 16.7M colors.)
If you are not sure what mode you are in, go to 'display settings',
and your mode should be listed. If you cannot set your mode to 16bit
or 24bit, then you either do not have the proper drivers installed, or
your video card does not support these modes. You should contact your
video card manufacturer on how to get your card into high or true color
mode, or at least find out if your card can do it.
