Hi there, everyone, this is Mission 2
from DARC, the Devensive Alien
Remoting Command. This prog is share-
ware, and I hope, it runs on your ST.

It tested on Mega STE and STF. It
requires 1 MB of RAM and the low Re-
solution. It is compiled with an
early version of the GFA-Compiler, so
there could be some incompatibilities
to TOS 2.06, Mint, Mac!c a.s.o.
If you have problems with runnig it,
use the Music-Disable option in the
beginning, this might help.
Sometimes the Mod-player seems to do
not terminate correctly and the System
crashes. Keep cool.

DARC II can be played with the Joy-
stick or with the keyboard. Simply
press Help during the game for more
Information. If you have a 8MHz STf
without Blitter, you might wanna alter
the stepwidth of your movings. Press
+ and - to find your speed. Be care-
full with this, the keys are reacting
very sensitive.

All other Keyboard-functions are
explained in the Help-Information.


How to play:

First you have to look for the 3
keys, wich will give you the
possibility to open doors. Once found,
you have to search for three Discs.
(Really, they had 3.5"-Disks!)
On your way you have to pick up
ammo and blast off aliens. Only a
remoted alien can increase your
health, note this !

The map:

To navigate, you need a map (You
can try it without map, if you`re
a really dungeon-maso).
Pressing the key m brings up a map of
the building. It shows your location,
and also where keys and discs are.
It will not detect closed doors,
monsters nor ammo.

The 3D-engine:

This is something between a simple
North-East-South-West Dungeon and a
complexer freemove engine a la DOOM.

This Prog is no Replacement for
SUBSTATION, because Sub. is simply
much better. The only sad thing is,
that it didn`t run on a STf. Hey,
people from UNIQUE DEV.! Please
release a ST-Version (also if it`s
some kind of a light-version)
