I put so much effort into designing the extra level for the competition, I even wrote a level designer in STOS so it would print out with lovely graphics, I think they thought they had to let me win after all the effort.

If I remember rightly the level turned out so hard it was nigh on impossible.

Although the main menu is keyboard control only, the actual game can be used on a REAL STE/Falcon with the jaguar joypad. STEEM has known issues with this game in jagpad mode though...

How to run Dalziel from floppy disk
======================================

1. Format a disk 2 sides, 80 tracks, 10 sectors.

2. Create a folder named DATA on the disk.

3. Put the Dalziel level (EXTRA.WOW) in the DATA folder on the disk.

4. Choose "new game" from the main menu and run SubStation as normal,
   WITHOUT using your newly-made disk.

5. Instead of pressing the return key after having entered the copy
   protection word, press shift+return (hold down shift and press return).

6. After the message "Entering extra level" in the mission briefing, you will
   be asked to insert disk 2, although disk 2 is already in your drive. Now
   insert the Dalziel disk. The Dalziel level should now start on your
   computer.

8. As you might have understood, the computer thinks of your Dalziel disk
   also as disk 2. Whenever the computer asks for disk 2, and it won't
   accept the real disk 2, try with the Dalziel disk.


How to run Dalziel from hard drive
=====================================

1. Copy the Dalziel level to the DATA folder in your STATION folder.

2. Choose "new game" from the main menu and run SubStation as normal.

3. Instead of pressing the return key after having entered the copy
   protection word, press shift+return (hold down shift and press return).
   Instead of the first level Asuka, the Dalziel level should now appear
   on your screen.
