Gonks ...... Manual ?!?!

[Another World]

Sincerely, this

http://hol.abime.net/5727/manual

is not for a serious database

I have no other words to say this, sorry

A pdf created from screenshots of game ..... and you call it manual ?!?! :sad

Furthermore there are already Notes and Screenshots about "in game" instructions

Please delete this false manual :scream

This was already pointed out in another thread. This wasn't intended, but we still wait for an fix.

This time it's not a broken PDF Retro, but the PDF consists of three screenshots. That's what Another World means and I can only agree.

Indeed, but it's a shareware/licenceware game. There is probably no real manual for it.

so you make one for us RN ;) :great

[Retro-Nerd]

Nope, i'm too lazy to type out the text. The game doesn't look interesting enough for me.

Precisely. It's only there for convenience should people do a HOL search for manuals or collect docs. Would be silly to do this for commercial games with proper manuals. Still, if someone wants to type up the docs, we can replace the PDF. I'm working silly hours atm to do it and the game doesn't interest me enough either.

[Dizzy]

Ok I typed in the manual.

@Dizzy
Bored? ;) Thanks for this mate :great Might come in handy when I'm bored with good games in two decades or so :D

:shocked We could also create disk scan, for people searching for a label to put on own Gonks floppy disk :sad

Why would you? Licenceware titles are semi-commercial, so usually the disks have proper labels and, in some cases, (minimal) packaging. What they usually don't have are printed instructions because you could easily save time and expense by sticking the docs on the disk in amigaguide/text format or, alternatively, in the game itself. I even have a few shareware titles like this (e.g. my shareware version of Twintris comes with a proper disk label, a small plastic case and an inlay IIRC).

@Dizzy
Thanks for typing up the docs :great I'll PDF it when I get a chance and add it to the HOL entry.
