+
+

IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a conversion of the Commodore Amiga game. +I had been given permission by the company (Apache Software Ltd) to +release this game as GPL. However - THE ORIGINAL AMIGA +VERSION OF SUPER METHANE BROTHERS IS STILL A COMMERCIAL GAME IT'S +LICENCE HAS NOT CHANGED.

+
+

Game Summary: +

+

Trap baddies in a gas cloud. Suck into +your gas gun. Throw against a wall to destroy them.

+


+

+

Game Controls:

+

Press Fire to start. Use “Player One” +Fire for single player mode. Use "Player Two" Fire for two player +mode.

+

You will then be prompted to input the +player names. Use the keyboard to type in the name with a maximum of +four characters. Press Return when you have finished.

+

The game will start.

+

Use the keyboard to move the player +(See below for keys). Hold down the Jump higher. Use in combination +with the Left and Right keys for directional jumping

+

Tap Fire to fire gas from the gun. +

+

When a baddie is within a certain range +from the players gun, hold Fire to suck a trapped baddie into the +gun.

+

Release Fire to throw the trapped +baddie from the gun.

+


+

+

Keyboard - Player One:

+

Cursor key Left / Right to move left +and right

+

Cursor key Up to jump. +

+

Cursor key Down to move down (Only used +with the wings "Power Up")

+

Control key (CTRL) - Fire.

+


+

+

+

+

'D' key to move right

+

'W' key to jump. +

+

'S' key to move down (Only used with +the wings "Power Up")

+

+


+

+
+

Fire Power

+

Puff and Blow each have a Methane Gas Gun +which fires a cloud of immobilising gas. If this comes into contact +with a bad guy he will be absorbed into the gas and then float around +the screen for a limited time. Bad guys are harmless in this state. +Puff and Blow must suck the floating gas clouds into their guns and +blast them out against a vertical surface. Bad guys then turn into +bonuses which can be collected. Be warned! - the gas cloud dissolves +with time after which baddies become active again and extremely +annoyed.

+

Power-Ups

+

There are dozens of power-ups which may +appear on any floor. They remain for only a few seconds before +disappearing. Here are some examples:-

+

+

TURBO - Increases player speed

+

+

WHITE POTION - Invincibility

+

+

COOKIE - Smart Bomb

+

 

+

Time Limit

+

After a set time limit on each floor two +Time Minions appear to destroy Puff and Blow. The Time Minions chase +them relentlessly around the screen and if they are avoided for long +enough another two will appear. Death is then inevitable unless Puff +and Blow manage to complete the level.

+

Grump the Block

+

+

Grump is a bad-tempered block who cannot +move on his own. He is very useful to Puff and Blow who can move him +around by sucking him into their gas guns. They can use him to stand +on and also to form walls which they can fire baddies at.

+

Springs

+

+

On some floors Puff and Blow will come +across sprites made of flexible steel which they can use to catapult +themselves into the air. These also have the advantage of being +moveable and can be used to make otherwise impossible jumps.

+

Generators

+

+

A few floors within the game will contain +generators. These must be destroyed before a level can be completed +as they continually produce more and more bad guys. There may be 1 or +2 on a floor and Puff and Blow must fire baddies at them to destroy +them.

+

Playing Cards

+

If Puff and Blow manage to completely clear the screen +before the "HURRY UP" message appears on +the screen, one playing card will appear (Ace of Hearts, Clubs, +Diamonds or Spades). If all four cards are collected by either player +that player will get and extra life. Once a card is collected it is +retained until the game is over.

+

Baddies

+

Pudd and Blow must face many different +enemies with varying abilities including flying, walking, jumping and +shooting. Watch out for the Key Keeper and his four different +vehicles. Puff and Blow will need to use different tactics to defeat +these.

+
