SonicX(treme) demo 1.0
extract the zip file to c:\bsonic


For all you people who have been wondering what the hell sonicX(treme)
is , this release is for you .It contains an exe file called sonicX. 
You can run it with out sound by just typing sonicx at the command 
prompt. To play it with sound , you will have to load the drivers by
running the batch file Sonicxws.bat. It will automatically load
the sound drivers and run the sonicx file with the -sound switch.

What is it ?
Sonic Xtreme is a game that I am making with qbasic. It features fully 
scrolling levels with midi suppport , and most importantly , Sonic the
Hedgehog.It only has 16 colours, but the megadrive version only had 64.

This demo is pretty basic , but it does feature the most advanced 
graphics engine that I have ever seen in qbasic.

Keys

The numpad keys 4 and 6 move sonic left and right respectively.
The numpad key 2 makes sonic perform the super spin dash if he is 
moving. If he is stationary , sonic will look down
The left control button (ctrl) makes sonic jump

If you like this program , and dabble a bit in qbasic programming 
yourself then email me at dccentral@hotmail.com and I will send you the 
source code and the level editor. Beware though , the level editor 
isn't a user friendly editor , and only draws the graphics. All the
things which govern how sonic can stand on a platform are programmed in
manually in qbasic. The editor does draw using a mouse , so
It is useful in that sense.
 
If you want to email me your opinions on the demo then thats cool as
well. I will reply to as many as I can.

Hope you like sonicX(treme)
