-
- Dschump! (pronounced 'JUMP') is a fast 'action'/puzzle solving game.
- There is no shooting, sorry to all those trigger happy players.
- None the less, Dschump! will pull you into a world of wonder, a
- world of puzzles.
-
- Aim of the Game:
- ────────────────
- The player controls a bouncing ball across a moving world. The world is
- a world of steel and sand, though sand is quite rare. The creators of this
- world saw to it that you will not reach the end, so be yourself and prove
- to them that they are not the mighty people they thought they were and
- finish all 100 levels.
-
- Each level has some form of puzzle to solve. Some are easy, some a
- hard, some are just outright impossible, but don't despair, it is possible
- to solve all the levels.
-
- The aim of each level is to bounce the ball onto the END field.
-
- What is in the world?
- ─────────────────────
- The steel plate world is floating above a murky-water world, so if the ball
- misses the steel surface, YOU DIE!
-
- On this world we find:
- o Force fields which change the direction of movement.
- o Switches that can create or destroy part of the world.
- o Parts of the world are very fragile and break easily, so don't bounce on
- them to often.
- o Black holes/Worm holes can transport us from one to another part of
- the world.
- o Gems are there for your picking.
- o Some special tiles.
-
- How to play:
- ────────────

- Copy the game onto your hard disk and run SETUP.EXE. Select your preferred
- language: English or German.

- I recommend that you enable the joystick function. If you have a
- SoundBlaster then please select the correct port and interrupt settings.
- Save the selections, and lets play.
