MINES V1.0
BY MILEN MASLINKOV
CREATED 1997
ABOUT -> I GET THE IDEA FOR THIS GAME FROM THE IBM VERSION,BUT FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW IT SOME DESCRIPTION:
FIRST START LOAD(BASIC FILE) FROM BASIC SYSTEM (IT MUST BE IN ARCHIVE)
AFTER A WHILE YOU WILL BE PROMPT TO ENTER YOUR NAME(DON'T USE LOWERCASE OR CTRL + KEY BECAUSE THE RESULT WOULDN'T BE GOOD),IF YOU WAN'T TO DELETE LAST CHAR PRESS "DEL" OR BACKSPACE.
AFTER THIS YOU MUST WAIT ABOUT 10 SECONDS (THE GAME GENERATE THE FIELD)
KNOW YOU MUST SEE ARROW IN THE UPPERLEFT CORNER OF THE SCREEN.
YOU CAN CONTROL IT WITH KEYBOARD KEYS : Q W E
\ I / (SPACE) - MARK
A<-@- D
/ I \ (RETURN) - OPEN
Z X C
IN THE UPPER LINE THERE ARE SOME OPTIONS
ABOUT -> GIVE INFORMATION ABOUT ME
OPTION -> NEG GAME -> TO START A NEW GAME
KEYBOARD -> SWITCH KEYBOARD MODE
JOYSTIC -> USE JOYSTIC AS INPUT DEVICE BUTTON 0 -> OPEN
BUTTON 1 -> MARK
QUIT -> QUIT WITHOUT PROMPTING
NOTES -> READ IT!!!
THE GAME HAVE 9 * 9 FIELDS TO OPEN FIELD GO OVER IT AND PRESS OPEN KEY OR BUTTON. IF IT CONTAINS MINE YOU WILL BE PROMPTED TO START OVER OR TO CONTINUE ( IF YOU CONTINUE YOUR SCORE WILL BE SET TO ZERO )
ELSE YOU'LL SEE THE NUMBER OF MINES AROUND THIS FIELD IN IT.
YOUR TASK IS TO MARK ALL MINES OR TO OPEN ALL FIELDS
IN THIS CASE YOU'LL GO TO NEXT LEVEL WITH MORE MINES
IF YOU MARK ALL MINES IN THE LEVEL GO TO SQUARE NAMED "READY" AND CLICK
(IT WILL BRING YOU MORE POINTS)
PROGRAMING -> I WROTE THE BASIC PART OF GAME FOR 3-4 DAYS,BUT ASSEMBLY PART I WROTE 1 YEAR AGO FOR OTHER GAME "GOLDEN AGE",WHICH WAS MUCH MORE BETTER BUT NOT COMPLETED (IT WAS SIMILER TO EMPIRE,STRATEGIC CONQUEST,...).I HAVEN'T TIME TO COMPLETE IT.IT TAKE ME ABOUT 3-4 MONTHS WITH 2 FRIENDS TO WRITE IT.
IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED LET'S WRITE ME.
I WROTE ALL MACHINE LANGUAGE SUBROUTINUES FOR THIS GAME AND I DIDN'T USE NOT MINE PROGRAMS.
NOTICE -> THIS GAME IS SHAREWARE SO IF WILL BE HAPPY IF YOU SEND ME $5 IN CASH.PLEASE SEND IT ONLY IN CASH!!!.IF YOU SEND $5 TO ME:
BULGARIA
4000 PLOVDIV
KAPITAN RAICHO 44,AP 24
FOR MILEN MASLINKOV
TELEPHONE:BULGARIA/032443916
YOU'LL RECIVE SOURCE CODES FOR ASSEMBLY SUBROUTINUES + SOME ROUTINUES THAT I DON'T USE IN THIS GAME,THE NEW VERSION OF GAME FOR ONLY $1 AND IF YOU WANT MAY NEWEST PRODUCT FOR ONLY $5,NOT $15.
MY FUTURE PLANS FOR MINES V1.1:
- SAVE & LOAD GAME
- TIME GAME
- FASTER
- CHOSE NUMBER OF MINES
- IT COST ONLY $1 FOR REGISTRED OWNERS OF MINES V1.0
MINES V2.0 -> BETTER THAN ALL VERSIONS ON ALL COMPUTERS (FULL IN ASSEMBLER)
- COST FOR OWNERS OF MINES V1.0 ($2) ,FOR OWNERS OF MINES V1.1 ($1) ,FOR OWNERS OF BOTH WITHOUT MONEY
- FOR NOT OWNERS ($10)
MY NEW PRODUCT:
I'M THINKING ON WHAT IT MUST BE
1. LAST BATTLE (STRATEGIC GAME SIMILER TO KING'S BOUNTY AND HEROSE OF MIGHT & MAGIC)
2. WINFILE (80CLMN FILE MANAGER WITH A LOT OF FUNCTIONS,SIMILER TO NORTON COMMANDER)
3. GRAPHIC WORLD (GRAPHIC PROGRAM WITH WINDOWS THAT SUPPORT MANY GRAPHIC AND FONT FORMATS,SOME FUNCTIONS:READ GIF,BMP IBM FILES AND MANY OTHERS)
4. CARD GAME (BRIDGE I THINK BUT DON'T KNOW!!???)
IF YOU HAVE ANOTHER IDEA WRITE ME.IF YOU FIND SOME BUGS OR SO WRITE ME.IF YOU HATE MY GAME OR LIKE IT WRITE ME TOO.
IF YOU HAVEN'T MONEY WRITE ME AGAIN.
