- ------------
-
- To start the game, double-click on the icon.
-
- A screen will appear giving the Story So Far, although the full game has a
- proper introduction. From there, you take control of Bud Lightning.
-
- It will be a good idea to read the documents... oh, you are. That`s okay
- then. This demo cannot be installed, but the final version will be fully
- installable.
-
- Game Controls
- -------------
-
- The screen is divided into two areas: the control panel and the graphics
- window. The control panel contains a message window, a text window and
- five verbs;
-
- Examine Used for looking more closely at objects
- Use Items in the inventory (displayed in the large
- window) can be used on other objects.
- Operate Use an object on its own.
- Take Pick up an object.
- Talk Talk to anyone worth talking to.
-
- The left mouse button is used to select verbs in the control panel and
- move the character if clicked in the graphics window. The right mouse
- button is used for selection of objects.
-
- Example: To take the glass, first click with the left button on the 'take'
- verb, then move the mouse pointer over the glass (the name of the object
- will appear in the message window) and click the right mouse button.
