| Taken from the readme directly: Freeware with Blitz Max source code included. No warranty. Version 2.0 Beta 2 - Second Release (see source code for changes) Purpose: - A Little remark from a old arcade game by Exidy (you can find the Rom's on MAME site). - Since it a version 2.0, This because I (Space Fractal) have created a java version, of the same name. I do have renamed this game to "Seesaw Circus" for easier search. - A 100% cabinet friendly game without any onscreen config or such (config.ini). - This game is released as GNU and hence all source code is included. Control: - Mouse, Spinner (X axis only) If you press LEFT BUTTON to start a new game, the game autochange the control to the mouse and disable joystick in that game. LEFT BUTTON is used to switch side on your seesaw. - Analog Joystick (A harder game): If you press any JOYSTICK BUTTON to start a new game, that button would been auto assigned as your switch button to turn around your seesaw (and disable the mouse). The game does also auto change the joystick port, you have pressed that JOYSTICK BUTTON to. BTW you can play the game using PL2 analog joystick, as long the button is also used the port too. = A Perfect game, if you do not have a trackball, but have a UltraStick (Ultimarc) instead. Remember to change it status to analog before play. THERE ARE NO JOYSTICK MODE SETTING IN CONFIG, DUE IT AUTO CHANGE AUTOMATIC BETHEEN JOYSTICK AND MOUSE. HINCE IT NOT INCLUDED THAT SETTING IN CONFIG.INI Credits & Quit: - Credits and Quit is assigned to same key as the arcade emulator MAME does. "5" to add one credit (as default, changeable) "6" to add two credits (as default, changeable) ESCAPE to QUIT directly (but save hiscore etc). These keys are NOT remmap able, but since these are so called M.A.M.E (TM) defaults, you should have no problems to fit it on your M.A.M.E. cab. PL1 Start is NOT used on this game, hence it can autochange MOUSE / JOYSTICK mode. Config: Open config.ini in your notepad application and change to feed your need. There are description, what they does. Released to: Build Your Own Arcade Controls (http://www.arcadecontrols.com) Changes Since First version (taken directly from source code): ' - Hiscore now works fully. ' - Retouched sprites to hires graphics, but keep the retro. ' - Possisible to add own graphics as a new skin. ' - Changed the logo, but could been better (but works in classic skin). ' - Added a widescreen option in config.ini. ' - More forgivement collection detection of the seesaw middle. ' ' !!! FULLY PLAYABLE GAME NOW WITH HISCORE !!!! ' ' WHAT MISSING: ' - A Enhanced graphics mode (why I created possible for skins). ' - Enhached Graphics mode (as long with the classic mode). ' - Better hiscore inserting, but works fine. ' - Sound FX. ' Best Regards by Space Fractal  |

| Due the game is designed to been used in a arcade cabinet (hence it orginally released at arcadecontrols.com), all config is been set in a file and is easy to configuere. Howover the game is beta and the source code is even included, even the code could been better, but the game do works. It would also been nice if somebody create a new modne skin to the game. NB. Since I use bass was due the Vista sound delay error and really before I found the fix of the issue, so I might just use the inbuildt sound engine for next release, so it can been compiled on all OS. |
