Your character can be moved around the environment using the four Arrow keys.
The game employs a unique hybrid system which allows you to precisely control
the direction of movement. So, for example, UP arrow moves the character up
the screen. Press the LEFT or RIGHT arrows to alter the direction of movement
tap the arrows to change the direction slightly, keep pressed to significantly
change the direction.

of the game. Provided that your system has a properly configured video card
and a properly configured monitor, only video modes supported by your system
will be offered to you for selection.
Should a video mode be selected that either your video card or your monitor

7.KNOWN PROBLEMS
2) When installing the game on Windows 98 with certain types of CD-ROM drive,
the game disc will eject at the end of the installation causing a blue screen
and requiring a reboot. In this case, the game usually installs correctly and
can still be played.
3) When playing the game with a Creative SoundBlaster 512 sound card, the
background music sometimes loops continuosly. No fix available for this problem
at this time.
