    Description of the game
    1. Description of the game

      2. You have to switch the traffic-lights in order to keep the cars (objects) running. The level ends, if too many cars are waiting outside the visible screen (more than 25 in total or more than 9 in one street). For every car that is leaving the screen you get 1 point. If the To-Do number (displayed on the right) has reached 0, you are allowed to enter the next level (otherwise the game is over). When the To-Do number is 0 you enter a sort of bonus-mode. The background becomes blue and the skill starts increasing. Try to make as much points as you can before it simply becomes impossible to go any further. 
    2. About the program

      3. The game is based on the old C64 game Traffic. It was (is) so much fun to play it on the C64. But each time I did, I was yearning for a real two-player mode in order to make it through to the 5th level. So I wrote this amiga-version. It took me about two month and was much fun. So I hope you enjoy playing it as well.
