Time
Each level must be finished in certain time. At the beginning of
the game, time passes very slow, but in every next level,
time will be accelerated. With clock icon you fill time-left to
maximum.
HiScore
In the game, hiscore is top ten. List of the
best 10. Top ten is in Inv.top. If Inv.dat doesn't exist,
a game will create it.
Playing
The charm of the game is in invisible playing. A player can not
see where he is in matrix. Only intuition. Don't be scared! It isn't
so hard. Learning time is the 0.50 - 2.50 min. If you give up in
the beginning, you will miss real charm of the game. The game becomes
fully interesting after 20. level (about 4 min.).
Installation and Beginning
If you have hard disk, save decompressed files
of Invisible in your own created directory and type: assign Invisible:
your directory.
Example, if your directory is called games/invisible on dh0:, write:
assign Invisible: dh0:games/invisible
Otherwise, create boot disk named Invisible: and save decompressed
files to diskette. Invisible requires OS 1.3 with 1 MB at least,
diskfont.library and my Invisible.Fonts. The game was tested on
Amiga 500 and Amiga 1200, PAL version.
