Laser Tank by Softstar - Docs by Fabulous Furlough Dif-1 Laser Tank ============================================================================== Protection was What color is this block on the picture type doc check. (I didn't crack this one).. Keys ============================================================================== Cursor keys move your Laser Tank ALT fires regular laser blasts CTRL fires Wipe'em out cloud. F2 Exit game sometimes Game Description, game play hints, ETC. ============================================================================== This is a game similar to TARG in the arcades. You drive your tank around, and if it moves, shoot it. There are special blocks in each board that give you stuff to either increase the performance of your tank, or help you destroy the bad guys. The display on the right of the screen shows (unless you beat it) my high score, your score, your level, your lives, and your wipe'em out cloud bombs. At the end of the level, it adds us the points from the ? blocks that you picked up during the board, and multiplies those points by the number of Wipe'em out cloud bombs you have left. (Up to 250,000+). During game play you may see the following kinds of blocks appear when you shoot a block or a certain kind of enemy. ? - This is just purely for points at the end of the board (Should you make it that far). A - Apocalypse Now Bomb - Your mother ship flies over and drops a heavy duty bomb to wipe out all enemies on the screen. (If only it played Flight of the Valkyrie when this happened!). S - Since you have a long way to go, we'll recharge you box. Fills up you energy tank (life). C - Come on and Freeze the enemies please box. Enemies can't move or shoot at you for a period of time. Just perfect to go and wipe them out. P - Please give me more fire Power box. If you get enough of these, your laser gets upgraded to one that kills faster. 1UP - If you get 7 of these I guess you have 1UP. (Extra Man). I purposely left out one of the boxes on the right of the screen. It is a box with a lot of little yellow dashes in it. This is the number of enemies that you have left to kill before the end of the board box. It also doubles as the number of hits left on the boss at the end of the board counter. When you get to the BIG boss at the end of the game, it is completely full.. Some friendly hints here. HIDE.. Shoot anything that comes by. Get any cheat that you can find for this game, as without it, it is impossible. I got just over 32 million on it. It has 48 boards, 8 bosses, and some of the best animation I have seen since an Ultima game. You can shoot the bad guys bullets and kill them. There is one little critter who looks like a magnet who tosses bombs at you, and even though you shoot them, if you are close enough to get hit by the explosion, you can still get killed. These guy need to be killed at LONG range. Be sure to look for the boxes, as you'll need them. Just think of Flight of the Valkyrie when you hit the A box, and the ship drops the big bomb..
