HOW TO PLAY

By picking up a diamond `*' you get 10 points, picking up money `$' gives you 100 points. You get one extra life for every 1000 points you score.

Move around with the arrow keys or the 2-4-8-6 keys. Press `k` to commit suicide if you should get stuck.

Got the bombs (`%')? Great! Press b to place them, and t to detonate them all at once. Note that the bombs you place will act just like stones, affected by gravity, rolling, and so on...

Watch out for monsters (`M') -- if they catch you, you will die. To fight back, drop stones on them or blow them up using your bombs.

Pressing `s' will enable/disable sound, `w' will highlight your current position.

EDITOR

Start the editor with `phear -e MAPFILE', use 0-9 keys to place objects, `s' to save the map, `q' to quit and `l' to enable lock-mode (lets you draw using arrow-keys). Play your map with `phear MAPFILE'.
