Remember the good old days of Boot Hill? The wonderful arcade game in which you took on the role of a cowboy and had to shoot your opponent before he shot you? Now you can re-enact those days with Dominic's wonderful Boot Hill clone, Gunslinger. The game is for two players, and each person controls the on-screen hombre by using the keyboard. The idea is simple - dodge your opponent's bullets while trying to blast bullets into his body. You have five lives - first one to zero loses. And now the key controls: Player 1 (numeric keypad)5-left 6-right 4-up 1 - down 0-fire | Player 2 (main keyboard)W- left E-right Q-up A-down S -fire |
You can find Gunslinger on side 2 of the cover cassette. Either rewind to around half way, type RUN "GUNSLING.BAS" and then press return or rewind to the beginning of side 2 and enter RUN "" (or RUN "MENU").
Don't worry if the character set looks a little strange when the game is loading - this is because Gunslinger uses most of the user-defined graphics and some letters become bits of cowboy or rock. To reset the graphics to normal you'll have to reset the computer when you've had enough of gunfighting. AA |
