RELEASE DATE: 2/19/02 by W.Degelmann / druadic / druadic@cs.com


UPDATED TO VERSION 3.1
SERIOUS SCORING BUG FIXED ON: 2/20/02 - Sorry guys! The game runs VERY NICE and smooth 
now!
BALL  LOCKING / JAMMING FIXED!!! I have not had any problems playing a new game.


PLEASE USE THE FONT FILE INCLUDED WITH THIS ZIP! Otherwise the game DOES NOT look 
right!!!
Thank you.

FIRST OFF: THANK YOU for all the support! I hope you enjoy this table as much as I had making it! I 
also
	thank all of you for NOT changing my work! It is appreciated!!! All you have to do is respect my
	wishes in not changing my games and you'll get MUCH MORE!

SECONDLY: PLUMB is an amazing VP board "fixer upper"!!! He is the one responsable for making the
	playfield flat and nice! Thanks again Plumb!!! I truly appreciate all the help!!! :)

THIRDLY: THE GAME IS TO SCALE. The balls are the CORRECT size for the game. Took A LOT of 
time
	to make this work. When balls are played, they sit at the bottom like a real flipperless machine
	until you play the next game! They then enter the hole and drop into the machine ready to play
	another game!!! :)


GAMEPLAY (keypresses):

The keypresses are quite simple. Use "S" to start the game. Use "L" to load a ball to the launcher. Use the
	ENTER key to launch the ball. Easy right?

When the ball is HALFWAY down the playfield THEN you can load the next ball. Same goes for starting
	A NEW GAME. BUT, if you do this, the game resets itself and you won't see your score if you
	are trying for a high one! I wish you luck, my highest score is EXACTLY 50,000! Try to beat
	that!!! :p

GAMEPLAY (object of game):

You start out with NOTHING LIT. When you see the first ball enter the launcher, the awards for ALL the
	bumpers will be lit at 1,000 points each. The idea is to get a SET of bumpers, any of the three
	colors lit. Once a SET of bumpers are lit, the score doubles. Get another set of stars and the score
	will triple and quadtriple. White seems to be the easiest, red second and blue toughest.

When a SET of colored bumpers have been lit, the star in the center of the glass will light signaling you
	have a SET of bumpers lit. The sound will now change to a normal "ding" sound. Each bumper
	NOW will be 2,000 points each. Hit another set and the sound changes to a different "ding"
	sound and the bumpers are now all worth 3,000 points each. Hit the last set of colored bumpers
	that need to be lit and EACH BUMPER is now worth 4,000 points!

PAY ATTENTION TO THE BACKGLASS: It tells you what is lit and what is not. This can help you to
	figure out where to nudge that ball to the next bumper!

THE HARD PART: Did I mention there are ONLY FIVE BALLS??? Yes, that's it so GOOD LUCK! I 
have
	(believe me or not) HAVE been able to pull off the 4,000 each point mark! A LOT of nudging is
	a BIG benefit in this game SO USE IT. With one ball, I was able to hit and ENTIRE SET of
	colored bumpers and get to 2,000 points each bumper! This game REQUIRES skill and A LOT
	of patience but it's EXTREMELY FUN.

TILTING: I did NOT add this even though one of the colored orange squares has TILT on it. Reason
	is the game is MUCH TOO TOUGH with this in play. It was NOT worth adding it, so nudge
	till your hearts content!!!

OTHER THINGS TO KNOW: If you DO NOT hit a bumper hard enough it WILL NOT register! These
	OLD 1930's bumpers were NOT reliable at all, so MAKE SURE you get enough velocity with
	the ball to get those points.

	SOMETIMES the balls DO NOT seem to register for a new game. They DO, but it sometimes
	takes the game a few seconds to realize it. Just give it a few seconds and it will allow you to
	play another game then.


PERSONALLY this is my FAVORITE table. I like it and it's very nice and simple. I'll say it bluntly:
	it's to the point for fun. Good luck folks and enjoy another classic FLIPPERLESS table! :)

Sincerely;
Will
