Need to provide instructions & key config info on final disc #129

Thinking another MODE 7 loading screen with the keyboard layout and instructions just before the game enters MODE 2. Could wait for a key press with timeout here.

Also need a README on the disc that provides extra info and a link back to the website etc.

Should we do this in the 'classic' style? You know with a double height red/yellow BG/FG header and then the keys with a "press SPACE to start" type gig?

Added Manual.txt file to the disc (all 11K of it!) Will look at doing a MODE 7 screeny...

Not sure I'm going to have time to design a MODE 7 screen, not my forte...

Made a 'classic' keys screen to start in a branch. Would love to have a nice MODE 7 teletext intro sequence with nice instructions and manual etc. but not going to happen in time. There is a text copy of the original manual on the disc with instructions to *TYPE it.

This is in. Just need a README with our info on it.

if the user waits long enough at the keys screen the game keeps loading despite press any key. at least let it wait an exhaustive amount of time (4-5 times as long as it does now) =]

Changed to 30 seconds in Release.

Added draft README but seems more important to put the details on the web rather than in the disc image.
