-
- Thank you for downloading Mario Brothers VGA. Better yet, thank you for
- reading the doc file! This doc file includes : how to play, game
- background info, and how to register.
-
-
- I. How to play
-
- Mario Bros will run on virtually any computer with VGA support.
- Just enter MARIO at dos prompt and if everything's o.k. the title
- screen will come up.
-
- Press any key to move on to the high score table (at this point
- MARIO.HIS will be read from/created on your disk).
-
- On this screen you can do the following :
-
- Q : quit and go back to DOS
-
- P : Select one or two(registered) player mode.
-
- K : Redefine game play keys.
-
- space : begin play
-
- Game play :
-
- Your main objective is to keep the area free of pests. To do
- this, you must jump and bump the layer under the pest to flip it over.
- Once flipped you have a limited amount of time to get on the same
- level as the little creature and 'kick' it off.
-
- You'll encounter numerous obstacles as well as various types of
- creatures.
-

-
- II. Game background
-
- I started on this game around the time Joust VGA registrations
- started coming in (about 6/20/90). Using a couple of small assembly
- language routines from Joust, my graphics editor, and the gained
- programming experience, made this project a lot faster than Joust.

- I hope you enjoy Mario Brothers VGA, if you would like to
- have a SIMULTANEOUS TWO PLAYER MODE version of Mario Brothers VGA,
- send $15.00 to my address below. You'll find that working as a team,
- you'll be able to reach higher levels then before.
-
-
- Even if you're not registering, write and tell me what you think
- about it!

- Oh, by the way...If you were putting off registering Joust VGA, wait
- no more! Send $25 and I'll register both Joust VGA (V 1.2) and Mario
