GENERAL ISSUES

-This is a DOS program.This means that most probably will run badly under
 Windows 95.This has been somewhat fixed since last version.

-Matrox VGA cards incompatibility has been resolved.

-No sound.No joystick.No scanlines.No VESA modes.

-Hand made palette.Quite close,but using color PROMS would be nicer!


WONDERBOY DELUXE FEATURES & BUGS

-Fully playable.
 The "reset bug" in version 0.6 is no more!

-DSW defaults have been changed.Energy sap is now set to slow.Delete old
 .dsw file in WBDELUXE directory before running the emulator to change
 to new default settings.

-The emulator code roms are from a bootleg rom set,meanwhile graphics comes 
 from the original board,which has crypted Z80 code.

-Wobbly objects?

-No tile clipping.


PITFALL 2 FEATURES & BUGS

-Collisions with bonuses don't work correctly,but all of the game sections 
 are playable,apart from the ballon trip.You can skip this section by 
 starting at beginning of section 3.

-Color cycling has now been fixed.

IN GAME KEYS:
------------

1          player one start
3          insert coin
5          test switch
6          service switch
ARROW KEYS joystick emulation :)
ALT        firebutton 1
CTRL       firebutton 2
TAB        toggles VSYNC mode on/off.Allows faster (and jerkier!) update.

ESC        guess what?

While running Pitfall II press F1 or F2 to reset the game and start at
beginning  of section 1 or 3.
