SIENA DUNGEON v1.0 ---------------------- Introduction. ----------------- Dungeon is a 3d graphical monster shoot-em-up. The object of the game is to search each dungeon level collecting energy orbs. When these are all collected you are able to enter the teleport and beam to the next level. Each level, however, is inhabited by nasty monsters intent on killing you. You have a choice. Run away, or blow them away with your shotgun! The monsters are quite persistent and can creep up from behind or from the side as well as straight ahead. They can't harm you if they are diagonally away from you. There is a monster meter showing your current direction and the monsters relative position to it. The game ends when your strength reaches zero. This only goes up when you start a new level so keep an eye on this. Your shotgun ammo also goes down, but collecting an energy orb will increase it. The teleport looks like an electric field and can only be stepped into when all the orbs are collected. Killing monsters may take several shots depending on the monster strength chosen using the options. Options. ---------- When the game starts the menu screen appears and presents you with several menus. Most are self explanatory. Some menus are only available to registered users. Unregistered users can only play the first dungeon (There are twenty levels). Also, they cannot jump to other levels using the code words given during the game. Orb positions are also fixed, and will be the same each time. All the other options are available as normal. Registered users can enter level codes to play where they left off previously. Also they can randomise orb positions making levels more interesting when played again. All users can increase the number of monsters their strength and speed, but be prepared for a tough game! Upon registering, you will receive your own personal access code which will free the whole game from all restrictions. N.B Selecting fast monsters slows the game slightly. Selecting slow monsters speeds the game slightly. Control Keys. ----------------- Use the up and down cursor keys for forward and back. Left and right cursor keys to turn sideways.
