Short: V1.41, tron clone for up to 7 players Author: chris@sixpack.pfalz.org (Chris Hodges) Uploader: chris@sixpack.pfalz.org (Chris Hodges) Version: V1.41 Type: game/misc Replaces: game/misc/MegaTron* Mega Tron V1.41 (02-Sep-95) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You certainly have seen the movie TRON by Walt Disney. This is another conversion of the film. You steer one of these rasterbikes and have to kill the other players by jamming them and forcing them into a wall. To make this easier you (and the opponents) have got access to three weapons from an arsenal of nine. Like in real life nothing is for free. Although the weapons ammonition is unlimited, all of them cost an amount of money (from 2-1000 credits). You earn money if you simply stay alive or if you kill a player you get 500 credits and the score is increased by one. If you have exterminated all opponents you will enter the next round with now more 1000 credits in your pockets and two bonus points. History ~~~~~~~ V1.41: Arrgggh! Serious bug which made the fire button on joystick 2 useless. Joystick 1 could trigger the weapons instead. Added new tool types: DISABLELOWLEVEL, DISABLE4PLAYER. Slowed down the menu selection speed by about 50%. Save config didn't save the colours of the players. Fixed. V1.4 : Added joypad support. The screen mode will now be set to the old one when quit. If all human players have died, the speed will be set to maximum. V1.3 : Added (almost) NTSC compatibility. Changed music/sound system, no '4Voice' switch anymore. Quickend the game a bit. Now allocates the audio channels. V1.2 : Added various features. Cannot remember details. V1.1 : Initial release.
