I can be contacted by email until the end of June 1995 on:
        martin_bright@uk.ibm.com
and after that, I'll be at Cambridge University for 3 years, but I can't
tell you yet what my email address will be, so I'll upload a new version
when I know.

Instructions:

From the title screen, press H to see the high score table, K to enter a key
to go straight to a level, ESC to quit, or any other key to start from the
first level.

The idea of the game is to get both Blots out of each screen. To do this,
you move bombs and boulders to help you. Use the cursor keys to move Blue
Blot and <TAB>+1 to blow him up, and to control Red Blot use:

   A - left
   D - right
   W - up
   S - down                    
   <BACKSPACE>+] - suicide

When they get out, you get the remaining time added to your score. If they
don't both get out, you lose a life and play the screen again.
A bomb will explode either when you drop a boulder on it, or when it falls
onto something solid. It will blow up anything except concrete in the
squares around it, and also set off any bombs next to it. The Blots can be
killed by either having a boulder dropped on their heads or by being blown
up by a bomb. If you want to kill them, use the suicide keys.

I hope you enjoy it.

about it!
