ROBOTIK USER MANUAL

- SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS -

MSX1 with 64KB RAM and 16K VRAM

- GAME PURPOSE -

ROBOTIK, a cute character in a spacesuit who looks like a
little robot, which is why this video game is called ROBOTIK.
Your mission is to break all the boxes marked "ROBOTIK"
in various mazes. Once you break a box,
bonus items appear randomly. Collect them to increase your score and reach
the scoreboard record, as well as a yellow key that will open the
exit door to the next level.

However, by constantly breaking boxes, you may encounter some unpleasant surprises.
For example, you might find the Death Skull. If you get it, you will lose
a life. However, during gameplay, by randomly breaking a BOX,
a blue cross will appear. This will protect you from death by the skull. You can accumulate
a maximum of three crosses during gameplay. In conclusion, ROBOTIK has a whopping
46 levels of gameplay, each different from the next. After completing the 46th level,
the game starts over again, to prevent the game from never ending,
until you're exhausted.

Our newest addition to the game is the famous SHARP X68000 computer, which is a significant item to collect during gameplay.

We think that's quite a feat, but we did our best. Enjoy this fantastic game.

- GAMEPLAY TECHNIQUE -

For technical reasons, there are no enemies during the GAMEPLAY, however,
you will only be racing against the clock. In fact, for each level,
you have a limited time, or you'll lose a life.
This is to make PLAYER1 a bit more challenging.

This video game project was written in BASIC + Z80 ASSEMBLY, fortunately the GAMEPLAY remains
quite fast. This time, too, we've added new machine code sound effects,
unlike the usual BASIC with SOUND, which would slow down the entire
program. Furthermore, this ROBOTIK video game features many high-quality music
tracks from the Yamaha AY-8910 PSG. That said, enjoy!
