Loading Instructions

Commodore
Commodore 128 users: Run Jr. Pac-Man in 64 mode.

Note to "Fast Load" cortridge users:
This program has its own "fast load" system to minimize loading time.
The presence of any type of fast load cartridge will not accelerate
loading any further. Due to the program's intricate design, the
program may not load with certain fast load cartridges attached to
your computer. If you use a fast load cartridge and experience
problems loading the program, turn off the computer and disk drive,
remove the fast load cartridge, and then follow the loading
instructions already given. With no cartridge attached, the program
should load normally.

Installing Jr. Pac-man on a Hard Disk
After you complete the procedure outlined below, Jr. Pac-Man
will run entirely from your hard disk; you will not need to use
the floppy disk. The procedure will create a sub-directory on
the hard disk and copy all relevant flles to it. You will be
asked to provide a name for the new sub-directory. If you want
to use an existing sub-directory, just enter the name of that
sub-directory in Step 3, and ignore the message about being
unable to create a directory.

Note: Once Jr. Pac-Man has been copied onto a hard disk, your
floppy will not generate any more hard disk copies. However, you
can transfer the hard disk installation capability back to your
floppy disk by following the procedures given in the section
entitled Uninstalling Jr. Pac-Man from a Hard Disk.

Warning: Before you attempt either to make an archival backup of
your hard disk, or to run a hard disk "optimization" or "defragmenting"
program after having installed Jr. Pac-Man on the hard disk, first
make sure that you follow the instructions to uninstall Jr. Pac-Man.
If you don't, Jr. Pac-Man will no longer be executable from the hard
disk, and you won't be able to re-install the proqram on your hard
disk. The instructions for hard disk installation are as follows:

1. Boot the system, if necessary, and get a C> prompt.
2. Insert the Jr. Pac-Man disk, label side up, into Drive A and close
   the disk drive door.
3. Type A:SETFIXED NAME, where NAME is the name you have chosen for
   the new  directory. The name must be no longer than eight
   characters. When you press  the Enter key, Jr. Pac-Man will
   install itself on the hard disk.


Uninstalling Jr. Pac-Man from a Hard Disk
1. Boot the system, if necessary, and get an A> prompt.
2. Insert the Jr. Pac-lan disk in Dnve A and close the dnve door.
3. At the A> prompt, type UNINSTAL and press the Enter key.
4. When the process is complete, Jr. Pac-Man will no longer be
   executable from the hard disk. To reinstall Jr. Pac-Man on a
   hard disk, follow the  hard disk installation instructions
   detailed above.


Playing The Game

Game Play
Move Jr. Pac-Man around the maze using the joystick or the keyboard
controls. Gobble up dots as you try to avoid the angry goblins
chasing you. If you get caught you lose a life. Once you see those
goblins creeping up on you, head for one of the flashing Power
Pellets and start munching. Then watch those goblins turn blue and
gobble them up for extra points.

Keep your eyes open for Bonus Makers (kites, tricycles or other
small objects) which move around the maze. When a Bonus Maker passes
over them, the dots turn into extra point doughnuts. Watch out,
though. If the Bonus Maker runs into one of the Power Pellets he'll
be destroyed along with the Power Pellet. Another Bonus Maker will
pop up from the center of the maze. If you lose a life before you get
the chance to gobble up all the extra point doughnuts, they'll
disappear. If you're quick enough, you can gobble all the dots and
move on to the next level.

You start the game with 5 lives. At the bottom of the screen you'll
see a little Jr. Pac-Man for each remaining life. Also at the bottom
of the screen is a picture of the current level Bonus Maker. Keep
track of what levels you have mastered by how many Bonus Makers are
lined up. At the top of the screen are the scores for both players.

After you've eaten all the dots, you move on to the next maze. A
brief animated intermission appears between mazes to give you a
chance to recover and get psyched for the next grueling level. If
you want to proceed without seeing the animation, press the spacebar
or the fire button on the joystick.
