VALLEY OF RAINS
===============

My mother is Water	
the most beautiful flower on the earth.

My father is Ant, 
the strongest being on the earth.

Volcano has given me fire.
Wagtail has blessed me for great deeds.

I went on the road 
to return life to Valley of Rains.

Gameplay

There is drought in the country since the dark forces settled upon the land. As Princess of Valley 
of Rains, you must defeat the evil forces.

Don't waste your time on small enemies. However, you have to kill bosses to progress through level.

Killed enemies may drop items:

Standard weapon 
Powerful weapon 
Parabolic weapon 
Double weapon 
Health 
Time
Shield (does not give immortality)
Immortality for a while

Sometimes you will also find other items that need to be used: for example, a key for opening the 
gate. In other cases, the gate can be opened by killing the guards.

Time, lives, health and score are displayed in status bar. Extra life is given when player reaches
1000 points.

When you lose all your health, you will lose a life and start from the same place. When the time 
runs out, you will lose a life and have to start the level again.

If you lose all your lives, the game is over and you will have to start from beginning.

White flowers will give you some health.

Standing on the upper platform, use DOWN to crouch on the platform.

On the lower platform, DOWN = jump down from the platform.
