DROID RUMBLE Instructions
-------------------------
SCENARIO:

The city of the future is in peril.

Malfunctioning robots have taken over the city's fusion power plant.
You, a SWAT team officer, have volunteered to infiltrate the plant.
Your mission: Shut down the reactor before it goes into meltdown.

In order to distract the rogue robots, you will be disguised in a robot suit.
You carry a plasma puncher, a powerful weapon with limited range.

The robots have seized the reactor's emergency shutdown key...
...but we don't know which robot is currently holding it.
Therefore you must find all robots that operate the plant's control panels.
Try to retrieve the key from them.

There isn't much time.
The reactor might reach critical condition in less than an hour.
If it does, it will detonate like a massive hydrogen bomb, kill thousands and irradiate the city.
Go! Go! Go!


CONTROLS:

Us the Joystick in Port 2 to start the game and control the player character.

Movement controls are:

LEFT / RIGHT = Walk left / right

UP / DOWN = Climb up / down

LEFT + DOWN = Crawl left / crouch

RIGHT + DOWN = Crawl right / crouch

FIRE = Use plasma puncher (in the direction the player character is facing)

You earn a bonus life for every 10,000 points scored.

HINTS:

- Crawl in order to dodge gunshots and certain obstacles.
(The more you practice this, the better your odds.)
- Take the high ground if you can.
- Time your punches for higher efficiency.
- Try to smash as many robots as possible to boost your score and gain bonus lives.
- Some robots will try to zap you with electric shocks.
- Large robots may drop deadly mines on walls and floors. 
You can crawl underneath wall mines, but you cannot jump floor mines.
- Avoid gas leaks!
