Mindbuster! v3.2
 
Mindbuster! is a program that requires Windows to run.
It is written in Visual Basic, but does NOT require you,
the user, to have that particular program on your computer.

You also need the file  VBRUN200.DLL  to run the program.
This file is available on many bulletin boards, Compuserve
and other similar places.

There are several ways of installing Mindbuster!

(1)  If you do not already have the file VBRUN200.DLL on
your machine, the easiest thing to do is COPY that file
to your Windows directory.  Persons who have Visual Basic
version 2 will already have the file.  Persons who have
version 1 of Visual Basic will have VBRUN100.DLL, but that
will NOT suffice.  You need VBRUN200.DLL.

If you do not wish to copy VBRUN200.DLL to your Windows
directory, then put it in the same place that your put the
executable file MINDBUST.EXE

(2)  You can copy all the other files (all named MINDBUST. or .WAV)
to any directory or subdirectory of your choice.

A word about the sounds. Visual Basic does not have the PLAY command which
most Basics do. This is a result of the nature and structure of the
Windows environment -- one if its 'features'.  Windows allows several
programs to be running simultaneously.  It would not be nice to stop
them from running just so you could play a few bars of your favorite
song

If, however, you have a sound board installed, or have installed
SPEAKER.DRV on your machine you will have access to a few sound effects.

The changes from Version 3.1 are relatively minor.  They include primarily
rearranging where some of the options are found on the Main Menu.  Instead
of there being only two main options: GAME and HELP, there are now three:
GAME, OPTIONS, and HELP.  Those options which did not deal directly with
starting, stopping and quitting the game have been moved under OPTIONS.

Mindbuster! is considered SHAREWARE, and your contribution of $10 is
most welcome.
