The Blue Mango Quest
User's manual
Last update : August, 2nd. 2001.
1. The goal
The Blue Mango Quest is a kind of Pacman clone. Thus, the goal is to eat
all the gums that are on the floor. These gums are called DituBoxes (in fact,
they are not gums : you probably noticed that they have the shape of tuna's
box (hmmm...)). Once you've eaten all DituBoxes, you have won !
The problem is that you are in a labyrinth with nasty Shmolluxs. A Shmollux
is a monster that wants to eat you. If they manage to eat you, you loose
a life.
But you can eat them, too : you just need to eat a very special bonus
called "ShmixGum".
2. Controls
2.1. Basic movements
Use the arrow keys to move. Keep the SHIFT key pressed to run, and press
the ALT key to slide.
As you can see, these controls are the same that in Doom.
2.2. Looking up and down
Use PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN keys to look up and down.
To center the view, use the End key (close to PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN keys).
2.3. Advanced movements
You can use all the keys together. An application of this is a very special
movement : turning around a fixed point. You have to go in a large area.
Press the ALT key and keep it pressed. Then, press the SHIFT key and keep
it pressed. Then, press the LEFT key or the RIGHT key. You will turn around
a fixed point. This can be very useful when you want to turn at 180 degrees,
or in other special cases.
If you want, you can also press the PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN key when you
do this. It is stupid because you won't see what's aroud, but it is funny.
