The idea of the game is to shoot the big red bouncing balloon which breaks
into smaller and smaller balloons. This game is for 1-2 players, and its played with a
joystick or a keyboard. I had a little trouble at first, it said the default for one
player was the right side of keyboard; and when I played the first time one player mode
was the left side of the keyboard. I went into configure, and change player 1 to the right
side of the keyboard and then I was getting 2 characters firing. Don't panic. under
configure is a line I hadn't paid any attention to the first time around that says reverse
keyboard, and that did it. The rules are located in the folder; so if you're like me and
make shortcuts for your desktop; [which is what the rules do recommend for playing under
Win 95, since this is a DOS based game]; you will have to quit the game and go back to win
explorers to find the help file, cause there isn't one inside the game.
Round one is kinda easy, there is nothing but balloon pieces. Round 2 started throwing so
much stuff at me, I needed someone else to play so I could watch. That gave me a headache
imaging what they will do to by level 100, which by the way, the unregistered version only
goes up to level 50 the rest come with registration.
The only thing I would have preferred was something some of these shooter types give you,
which is a color page, inside the game, showing an icon of the badies and prizes, and what
they are called, etc.. Then I went to game folder, read the rules, and discovered they did
it on purpose; so that you can discover the secrets of the game for yourself. [There was a
strange little reference to bad clowns and rhinos-RHINOS?!]
So if you like VERY fast paced shooters, [at least you have unlimited ammo] give this game
a try.
