Punkman is a pacman clone with a few minor differences. For
example, when Punkman is eaten by a ghost, the ghosts will keep on
moving, but only you will disappear. If you hit the fire button, you
will reappear at the place where you started the board, so make sure
no ghost is at that location when you hit fire or it will count as a
kill.
I have always enjoyed playing pacman games, so this is my first
attempt at making one. Since this is only the first version of the
game, there may be a few bugs or a few items missing that would make
the game better. If after playing the game you think something should
be included in the game that wasn't or that there is an error, let me
know. I always like to hear input from others who have played my
games. Just send me a letter (R.QUEZADA) on GEnie.
This program was written and compiled in STOS basic on a 1040STE.
Another program I got from the ST Format cover disk #43, fixed the
program so that it will run on all of the versions of TOS from 1.0 to
3.06.

P.S. I am now working on a 3-D version of Punk-Man written in STOS
3D, a maze designer for Punk-man and most likely, a two-player option,
so watch out for them.
