			    ͼ

   This is the BETA Version of Valhalla.  What does that mean?  It means
   that you are playing with a work-in-progress.  It means that you are
   bound to find bugs.

			  [3] Object of the Game 
			 ͼ

       You are in the Viking afterworld Valhalla.  In Viking heaven you
       battle all day long, killing, maiming, and generally wreaking
       havoc.  In the evening you eat a giant feast and are reborn the
       next day to start fighting once again!

       Valhalla is Ruled by the Norse Gods, each having his or her own
       special abilities.  Its up to you to become a GOD, slay your 
       opponents, and rule the kingdom of Valhalla!

                     Crush your enemies...
                     See them driven before you...
                     Hear the lamenting of the women!

       Your environment is Viking Heaven.  You are pitted against
       one opponent.  Your surroundings play a crucial part in the
       battle with your opponent.  Some floors may be covered with 
       nordic ice, moving treadmills, or dangerous pitfalls.  Its up
       to you to figure out how to use these perils to your advantage.

     you have found the player you wish to be, just hit one of the Action
     keys or buttons

     From here you can change various aspects of the game. Like how long
     the round is, how many rounds are being played, if you're playing
     against a computer or not. In this version, the computer player does
     not work.

     of a player, the key's a player uses and calibrate the joystick. In
     this version, Shadow type and Difficulty do nothing.

     You have six different movement options: forward, back, up, down,
     kick and punch.  When used individually these movements will produce
     a standard set of actions for each character.  If you experiment
     with different movement combinations, you'll discover the many
     advanced moves that each character has to offer.
