How the hell do I play amphetamine?


Ok, so I've got the amphetimine game installed, I can get the "little man" to walk and bounce backwards acros the first screen, but how do I get any further? What are the control keys? I did work out how to pick up and fire the phiol? gun thing, but what to do next etc etc

Does anyone know a link for instructions in how to play this game

regards

John

p.s. Please excuse the ignorance, I've never played games, and this seems like it "should" be a good one to start with.

i think you could look in whatever readme there is? but i think that tab is to bring up a menu, and left-ctrl is to attack. be careful, though. its a tough game, and the ingame sound sounds like a cat trying to hack up a furball (at least for me ).

To be honest, I didn't even think of a "readme" I spent about 3 hours looking for a games "howto". I'll have a look for the readme.

Many thanks for the suggestion.

regards

Yup, thanks LavaDevil94,

I found it about half an hour after I got your post (just a total pain that I had to keep the sound turned down at that time of night )

But yes, you're right it's quite a good/hard game that'll take a fair bit of getting used to (especially for a novice gamer like me!)

regards

John
