FAQ
===

What Are the Controls?
Left/Right = Turn
Forward = Go Faster
Back = Reverse
Fire = Jump

How do I play this?
This game works like Pac-Mania crossed with Nibbler/Snake. You have to follow a path and eat the dots. If you leave the path, you lose energy. Eat all the dots and survive with some health to beat the level.

Why is the game crashing when I push forwards?
You need an A500+ with ECS and 1MB chip, no fast, no extra drives or peripherals.

What is the Energy Bar for?
If you collide with any ghosts, or lose your path, your energy will start to fall. If your energy falls by a lot, there is a lesser chance you will make it to the next level.

How can I avoid enemies?
Watch the mini map. Just press fire to jump over them.

What are the tokens on the levels?
Health is a red cross on a white box. This will give 100% health back. The other items are described during the title sequence. I'd say the speed ups are the most critical item to collect each level.

Where do I go after collecting the last dot?
An exit gate will open up in the middle right wall, and you can see it on the map. Go in here, and follow the path to your preferred next level.

What is so special about the other levels?
The ghosts, especially Mac, get a lot faster, and you will have to push forwards and try to out run them.

Why is the screen flickering
You are experiencing the joys of high res interlaced mode!

Why do I lose my high score?
The game is just a PD game, and for some reason I dont think the high scores appear on the titles (???)
