BATMAN: The Batwing!

     This is my first attempt at making an arcade action game.
I wrote it in compiled STOS BASIC. Why STOS?? Because it had
everything I needed to make this game work: Music, Digital sound,
sprites that move at my every whim, etc...

     The game was compressed into a .PRG file that uncompresses
itself in memory and then runs. That's why it takes a few seconds
for it to run after it's loaded up. The graphics aren't that good
but it is very playable.

     When the game starts you will see an intro screen. If you
don't want to see the intro screen all the time, then just hold
the right mouse button when you see my name appear and the game
will start. Use the mouse to move the Batwing on the screen. Use
the Left fire button to shoot.

     I wanted to add more things to it but decided that I was
spending too much time on it and wanted to make a couple of other
games. Otherwise this game would NEVER get uploaded!

     The jets and the explosion were taken from the STOS Sprites
600 disk while everything else was made by me.

     So without further time consumption, here's to making a name
for myself!... er... I mean here's to the Public Domain!
Enjoy!
