      This Pong-Pong Kombat clone I made a while ago and never got around 
   to finishing so I decided I'd just upload it.  It's not really done, I 
   was planning on making more moves and paddles but, oh well.  The "Menu" 
   was just thrown together so you didn't have to edit the program everytime 
   you wanted something changed.  Anyway, I know it's not original and the 
   idea has been pretty much played out, but it's still fun, right?


      THE MOVES

      Button 1:  B1
      Button 2:  B2
      Button 3:  B3

      The White paddle:
            FireBall:  B2, B1, B3
            Speed:  get ball to hit in middle of paddle

      The Black paddle:
            FireBall:  B2, B2, B1, B3, B3
            Slow:  B3, B1

      The White paddle's FireBall is fast but doesn't take as much damage as
   the Black one's, which is slower.

      The White paddle's Speed move speeds the ball up until it takes damage,
   which can be ALOT.

      The Black paddle's Slow move cuts the ball's current speed in half.
   You can half it twice, the third time it goes back to the original speed.
   If done during Speed it will counter it, making the ball return to normal.
   If you time it right (with Slow) the Black paddle can throw a FireBall and 
   make it hit at the same spot the ball does, forcing the other person to
   either let the ball take the damage or block the ball and let the 
   fireball hit them.

      
   THE OPTIONS

      Use the Up/Down arrow keys to move the cursor and Left/Right to change
   an option (except the Config.):
      
      Speed:         Game speed.  
      Players:       No. of players, 1-2.  Much more fun with 2.
      Paddles:       Which player gets which paddle.  Both can be the same.
      Difficulty:    How hard the game is:
                        Easy (simple)
                        Medium (slight challenge)
                        Hard (impossible)
      Timer:         Whether you want a time limit or not.  Counts down from 
                        99, going down 1 for every two seconds.
      Sound:         What kind of sound you want:
                        None (Better than PC Speaker...?)
                        PC Speaker (WOW.  Beeps.  Cool.)
                        Adlib/SoundBlaster (Better than None.)
      Config:        Just go to the button to edit and press the new one.


   GLITCHES

      The only real (known) bug is Basic's fault, the PC sound will sometimes 
   stick.  You must press the Pause (Break) button until the sound stops then
   press any key.

      After every game you must pick your options again, it doesn't save 
   them.  Sorry!
