Background ========== This emulator was written in my spare time (at night, during slow times at work, while sitting on the shi*ter... ;)). I have a wife and a full time job and, therefore, not a lot of time on my hands. I started working on this emulator on January 7, 1997. This emulator requires a Pentium based machine to run properly. It works fine on my lowly P90. This emulator was designed to run under DOS although it should work fine in a DOS box under Windows95. If you have any questions about the gameplay in Naughty Boy, please refer to the included naughtyb.txt file. It was retyped directly from an original Naughty Boy manual. Included files ============== naughtyb.exe -Program executable naughtyb.txt -Naughty Boy game description readme.txt -This file Installation ============ Copy the executable to a directory.
