Two mice recommended :-) - two gfx-versions of the game included: - standard LoRes version (320x200), works on ECS, AGA or CyberGfx. - improved HiRes version (640x400), needs AGA or CyberGfx. Other features are: - programmed 100% using OS-routines - supports different screenmodes - works on CyberGfx screens - nice music and great sound-fx - savable highscorelists - loads of extras like shields, laser, warp, etc... - 25 levels included (more levels available) - great MUI-based Leveleditor included ManiacBall needs: 68000 (68020 strongly recommended) Kick2.0 1MB memory ptreplay.library (included) asl.library v38 (if you want to change the screenmode) MUI 3.x (if you want to use the Leveleditor) History: V1.2 (28.10.1996) - fixed small bug with forcefield - fixed bug in HiRes mode (didn't work with AGA) (reported by Peter Schulz) - improved screenmode selection V1.3 (03.11.1996) - fixed small bug in game routine - due to user request, the ball now speeds up automatically after 20 seconds if slower than normal - the default ballspeed can now be set in the options menu (suggested by Peter Schulz) - fixed bug with mousebutton and mouse2 (reported by Troels Walsted Hansen) - fixed bug with passwords (words with 7 letters didn't work) (reported by Antti Haljak) - added random mode, type "00random" as password (suggested by Dhomas Trenn) V1.4 (17.01.1997) (Game) - Maniac.font will now be found in the program's dir and in FONTS: - fixed small bug with steel and TNT - you won't get passwords in random mode any more (Editor) - added italian catalog, thanks to Alessandro Basso (cralex@amiga.dei.unipd.it) ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 2297 600 73.8% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 ManiacBall.info 2172 2055 5.3% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +01 2172 2054 5.4% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +02 2172 2052 5.5% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +03 2172 2053 5.4% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +04 2172 2085 4.0% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +05 2172 1981 8.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +06 2172 2035 6.3% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +07 2172 2060 5.1% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +08 2172 2074 4.5% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +09 2172 2057 5.2% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +10 2172 2028 6.6% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +11 2172 2082 4.1% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +12 2172 2030 6.5% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +13 2172 2064 4.9% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +14 2172 2032 6.4% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +15 2172 2063 5.0% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +16 2172 2043 5.9% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +17 2172 2043 5.9% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +18 2172 2024 6.8% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +19 2172 2028 6.6% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +20 2172 2047 5.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +21 2172 2054 5.4% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +22 2172 2047 5.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +23 2172 2079 4.2% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +24 2172 1994 8.1% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +25 7100 3123 56.0% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ManiacEdit.catalog 6482 2895 55.3% 17-Nov-96 18:11:50 +ManiacEdit.catalog 8349 2953 64.6% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ManiacEdit.cd 7850 2977 62.0% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ManiacEdit.ct 24704 4389 82.2% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +Maniac.data 524 43 91.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +Maniac.font 3492 1271 63.6% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +16 1284 739 42.4% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +8 9136 2882 68.4% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +Edit 90576 38765 57.2% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +Maniac.HiRes 28714 15353 46.5% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +Maniac.LoRes 1199 362 69.8% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +InstallLib 632 292 53.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +InstallLib.info 40720 22901 43.7% 21-Jul-96 17:27:00 +asl.library 8048 4610 42.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ptreplay.library 106360 40772 61.6% 18-Jan-97 14:50:42 +ManiacBall 28598 11071 61.2% 18-Jan-97 15:59:36 +ManiacBall.guide 4806 1354 71.8% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ManiacBall.guide.info 4162 803 80.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ManiacBall.info 30876 12360 59.9% 18-Jan-97 16:00:54 +ManiacBallD.guide 4806 1399 70.8% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ManiacBallD.guide.info 81236 30721 62.1% 18-Jan-97 15:04:16 +ManiacEdit 4162 968 76.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ManiacEdit.info 602 538 10.6% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ballborder 2176 1749 19.6% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +ballbrick 4860 3531 27.3% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +balllost 5694 3804 33.1% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +bigger 736 605 17.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +bonus 8082 6114 24.3% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +bonuscomplete 8294 6381 23.0% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +explo 2286 1641 28.2% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +extraball 6718 4697 30.0% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +extralife 10574 8528 19.3% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +faster 10668 9232 13.4% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +laser 2506 2012 19.7% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +lasershot 7854 6753 14.0% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +levelcomplete 140168 110760 20.9% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +mod.ManiacBall 3492 2729 21.8% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +score 7500 7100 5.3% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +shield 5766 4079 29.2% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +slower 5694 3859 32.2% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +smaller 7004 5321 24.0% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +steelball 11882 11105 6.5% 03-Nov-96 00:00:00 +super -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 812969 455305 43.9% 21-Jan-97 05:14:50 69 files
