ADDITIONAL NOTES
THIS GAME RUNS AS IT SHOULD IN
FULLSCREEN-MODE ONLY, I STUMBLED
UPON SOME NANOSLEEP RELATED PROBLEMS
WHEN PORTING IT. SORRY FOR THAT, IF
YOU CAN DO BETTER, THE SOURCE IS
INCLUDED. SO, DON'T PLAY IT IN
WINDOW MODE, THE GAME IS BEST IN
FULLSCREEN ANYWAY.

PLEASE read the control notes below before playing. Some people have been confused.
Control Hint: you can move up and down too.
General Hint: The game only lasts 5 minutes. If you don't get the point at first, please keep playing.
This was selected for exhibition at Kokoromi's Gamma256 event.
Image size:
100x16 (100x12 play surface with a 4-pixel scoreboard above)
Aspect ratio:
25:4
Display size:
600x96 (for 640x480 fullscreen letterbox mode)
Game time:
5 minutes
Version:
3 (released December 13, 2007) [change log]
License:
Placed in the public domain
Control notes:
Press any button (or key) to start the game.
Use left analog stick (or arrow keys) to move character (up, down, left, right).
F (on keyboard) to toggle fullscreen mode.
B (on keyboard) to adjust screen blow-up factor.
Q or ESC (on keyboard) to quit.
Display notes:
Default full-screen resolution is 640x480.
Some monitors (like LCD?) don't do well at low resolutions (blurry pixels).
Edit the files in the settings folder to change the full screen resolution (try 1024 for screenWidth.ini and 768 for screenHeight.ini).
Put a zero in fullscreen.ini to make the game start in windowed mode.
Credits:
All code, music, graphics, fonts, and animation by me.
I used mtPaint to make all of the pixel art.
I used the SDL Library for cross-platform screen, sound, and user input.
I used MinGW to build the game for Windows.
