PUGGSY FROM PSYGNOSIS *** FULL DOCUMENTATION *** Puggsy's in a mess. Not only is he stranded on an alien planet fifteen light years from his home space station,stardock,but now he's had hisspaceship stolen! there are bad days and they are really bad days!!! And so puggsy's got a problem - major league.i mean, it's bad enough losing your keys downtown without a ride home.Being stranded on a planet without so much as a skateboard to get you around is a little more distressing Not even Captain Kirk or mr.Spock had to cope with that! but, undeterred, puggsy is determined to get his stolen spaceship back. OPTIONS MENU: Enter the options menu by highlighting the selection and pressing start. MOVEMENT: Puggsy can JUMP and PICK-UP,DROP & USE OBJECTS. OPTIONS: The options menu allows you to configure the controls as you like LIVES: Give puggsy heaps of lives to help him get his ship back! Highlight the option by moving the arrow down with the joystick. Each heart is a life. You may take up to 7 lives by moving in the right direction. Minimise the number of lives and make the game all the harder by moving left-giving puggsy fewer lives. PASSWORDS: Finally, you may punch in the appropriate passwords to enter later levels to play.Once you have completed a section - such as THE BEACH, you can press "P" on the keyboard and a password will be displayed. Jot down the password (or should that be pass number) and should you want to rejoin the level at a later date, enter that password here by highlighting the appropriate numbers and hitting the button to enter, or you can type the password in. JUNIOR LEVEL: Get accustomed to puggsy's little way by taking him through the junior section - a section that's ideally suited to the younger player. Here you will be gently hurled into puggsy's quest in the softest, most loveable way possible. You'll also learn how to grap the gun and shoot things. Oh what fun you will have. PUGGSY'S AIM: All puggsy wants is to get off the planet and get home. Plain and simple. To do this, he must traverse most of the game levels, and leave by the exit!!. The thing is, that the island has a great many paths, some of which might not lead towards puggsy's spaceship. Plus some levels may also have more than one exit!It's up to you to make your way from level to level and not from level to dead end! Plus there are loads of special secret levels and short cuts to help puggsy on his way. Enter the exit carrying an object and you'll receive a hefty bonus. Carry more than one object or a rare object and you'll receive an even heftier bonus. THE GAME: Puggsy can walk left or right,jump,shoot,pick-up and run. But c'mon, that's nothing special now is it. Well, that makes puggsy unique in the Total Object Interaction to be found within the game. Puggsy can interact with billions of onscreen objects which he must use to help him along. Find thez box with a pair of sneakers in it,pick it up,press the button, and puggsy will put them on and dash along like a sprinter. Grab the invincibility shield,press use,and hurl yourself into the rascally racoons as if your life depend on it - because it doesn't - you're now invincible! (for more on TOI, see the Object Section). You'll discover all the objects along your journey but it's up to you to find out just what they're all for.Use the section at the back of this manual to note down just what all the objects do. However on some levels, you'll be given clues to find a certain objects by the clue chest. Open it and it'll tell you what object to look out fot. Some of the objects you'll just stand on or have to position in strategically important places to finish the level. Others, you must use in a certain way. But it's down to your ingenuity to decide just how to use them. If you get struck on a screen restart it, without even losing a life, by pressing ESCAPE. CONTROLLING PUGGSY: The height puggsy jumps is dependent on the lenght of time jump is held. There are therefore thousands of variations available to puggsy at any time. Plus, apart from just allowing puggsy to jump around, you can also squash mostenemies by jumping on top of them and pressing down. The PICK-UP/DROP button allows puggsy to - yeah right. If puggsy is close to an object, press this button and he'll pick it up - assuming he's not already holding one. Press the button again and he'll drop it. It's a cinch. And if two objects are piled on top of each other,grab either the top or bottom one by moving puggsy's arms up or down (using either the up or down control) and then the pick-up button. Easy. Also, puggsy has a special throw. Rather than just dropping the object puggsy's carrying, try pressing the direction arrows either up or diagonally upwards and pressing drop. The objects will be hurled in the direction you've chosen. And that's really handy because if the object hits any enemy from above, then they'll really know about it! When trying to jump onto objects that are too high for puggsy, puggsy can use objects in his grasp to help him get a grip on the surface and haul himself upwards. Once puggsy is trying to grip on a ledge with the object, keep holding the direction control downwards in the direction that puggsy wants to jump. That way,he'll have no problem in making it (usually!!). A final couple of points. If puggsy finds himself on top of a pile of objects, pressing down lets him drop through the objects one at a time. And if you find things are happening just a little too quickly, then pause the game at a many time by hitting the key "P". HAPPENINGS: On most levels, happenings can be found. These can usually be identified by the fact that something is happening or is about to happen. This happening must happen in order for you to complete the level. Confused?? it's OK. So are we....... Happenings take the form of switches,locks,ropes,cannons and several trillion other mechanisms which must be used to continue to the next level. These items can be activated by objects found on that level. For example, you see a cannon on the screen. Find and pick-up the match, walk to the cannon, drop the match onto the cannon and the cannon fires. Find a switch, get any solid object and walk into the switch with the object and that switch will be switched and, if you drop an object near it, will stay switched!! OBJECTS: Puggsy uses a fantastic system called Total Objects Interaction (TOI) This means that all the objects play a vital part in completing the game. It also means that they act and interact exactly as they would if you were using them in the real world (well,more or less.I mean you wouldn't want things to be as boring as in real life now would you??).All objects can be moved,thrown,stood upon,stacked,and used.They are subject to gravity,bounce,float (or swim) in the water,get blown around by fans and so on. Also,each object has its own weight. If puggsy is carring a heavy object,he cannot jump as high as if he was carrying a light object. On the other hand, if puggsy is getting blown around by a fan,holding a weighty object might let him walk towards it more easily. Obviously, heavy objects cannot be thrown as far as light ones but light objects will be affected much more by fans. Buoyant objects will float in water and if puggsy stands on a few of these,he can stand water without getting wet! Similarly,he can pump up balloons,hold ontothem and float up into the air as they rise! Bear in mind that there are usually no simple no single fixed solutions to a problem so it's up to you to use your ingenuity to solve them. MAP SCREEN: After each level,you'll see an end of level screen followed by a map of the entire island.The square box to the left shows where you've just been and offers you a new destination.Move the tiny puggsy in the picture along the patch with the direction control to progress through the game. If you come to a dead end, you can retrace your steps on this screen.Press fire to enter the level. SPACE removes the magnified box to the right of the screen KEY B views the password.enter it on the options screen to beggin at your present stage. RETURN shows all the world guardians. Guardians with a line through them have already been defeated. FIRE enters the selected level. GUARDIANS: Every so often, you'll encounter a guardian. He's there to try and stop puggsy getting his space ship back and must be defeated. There are 6 evil guardians,with between 3 & 6 hit points. POLLY PIRATE: Polly jumps around firing at puggsy. All puggsy has to defend himself is the odd fish that gets washed up on deck.Position puggsy near the fish and fire it at polly. THE EMPEROR'R OLD CLOTHES: This fella throws his gloves at puggsy. Little does he know that the ball that's rolling over his head can be dropped by puggsy using the switches on the floor!. SO PHARAOH SO GOOD: Beware! the pharoe nose how to get puggsy.But if puggsy steps on the pressure pads,he can get the pharaoh! simple. FLOUR POWER: The nasty miller is throwing bags of flour at our puggsy whose only defence is to catch the bags with the grabber and dump them over the miller's head using the conveyor belt. HALITOSIS THE DRAGON: Avoid his breath at all costs! When you get the chance,sneack near him and sock him in the jaw. IF LOOKS COULD KILL! This is the big boy! with laser beam eyes,deathly bound and a nasty habit of dropping mines on you, puggsy has got his work cut out. The only way to defeatthis chap is to give him a taste of his own medicine.
