METEOROIDS
==========

LOADING METEOROIDS

The procedure for loading a program into your Spectrum is given on page 24 of the manual. 
Please follow these steps for loading Meteoroids.

1. Connect the ear socket of the computer to the ear socket of your tape recorder.
2. Set the volume control as per Sinclair manual.
3. Adjust the tone control to maximum.
4. Type Load "METEOR".
5. Start the tape recorder. The program will AUTO RUN once loaded.


There are three sizes of meteoroid, and an alien ship which appears occasionally trying to 
ram you. Each size of meteoroid and the alien ship are worth differing points:

	Large meteoroid  - 20 points 
	Middle sized one - 50 points 
	Smallest one 	 - 100 points 
	Alien ship	 - 200 points

If you get into real trouble there are three ways out - fire rapid volleys, use the SHIELD 
or enter HYPERSPACE. The shield puts a protective force around you stopping the meteoroids 
from hitting you. But beware, if you hold on to it too long or use it again too soon you'll 
blow up! Going into HYPERSPACE puts you back somewhere else on the screen at random.

This game works with JOYSTICKS too. We recommend those made by Kempston electronics (write 
to us for details) but any which work in a similar manner will do. On the joystick forward 
is THRUST, left is ROTATE LEFT, right is ROTATE RIGHT, back is HYPERSPACE. The fire button 
activates your laser.

SCORING:

A score of 2000 is beginner's level; 5000 is average; and above 20,000 means you're a master. 

*** EXTRA LIFE AT 10,000 POINTS

GOOD LUCK!!

SUPER-C SPECTRUM COMPILER: This program is almost magical to most people as it converts a 
program written in BASIC into a super fast professional machine code version - all at the 
press of a button! It will compile almost all Spectrum BASIC (excepting strings, and 
interger only) and will suit most people's needs for excellent program writing. However, 
an enhancement to SUPER C will be available soon which will enable it to Compile all 
Spectrum BASIC and even add a few commands that Spectrum BASIC lacks!

SOFTIME: Now with SOFTIME™ you can add a continuous digital clock to your ZX Spectrum. It 
will keep near perfect time and remain on display even while you are writing or running 
another program!

3D-MAZENTURE: A fascinating adventure game and maze game in one. More than a hint of 
Dungeons and Dragons, and machine code animated monsters chasing you. A best seller.
