--------RUN SET UP FIRST


OK finally the final version... well i might add some new tricks to it and make a new final version.  Now there isn't as many tricks as there was last time  but that's not too bad less memory and most of the last tricks where these tricks to manual and nose manual.  Now there is Pop shovit, kickflip, varial flip, hard flip, 360 flip, cloudy, and half flip late shovit (my friend can acutally do those). and of corse 108's 

there is also 2 hiden tricks you will need to find those hint you will need a large score to get em.   Also you will now need to earn your new tricks by getting a better score (you get 1 pt. every screen you complete).  

The way you do tricks is also different in this version you dont' just hit one button that's boring.  you now will have to hit up (to do an ollie) then do they trick on the way up if you hit the trick button on the way down it won't do squat.  

KEYS--------

-->   move faster (you can go up to speed 4 just keep tapping the            button till you get to speed 4)
<--   slow down (again just keep tapping the button to stop eventually)
UP    ollie  (jump for those nonskaters out there)
mode  huge ollie  can't do tricks with this except for 180's
-----you will need to hit up before doing these tricks-----
y=            popshovit
2nd           kickflip
window        varial flip
zoom          hard flip
trace         360 varial flip
graph         cloudy (this is an odd trick  never seen it in real life)
prgm          half flip late shovit
-----you can do these while in huge ollie or small ollie-----
x,t,o,n       tailgrab 180  
stat          nosegrab 180  
NOTE:  there isn't a person on the skate board so the end of the board that would be getting grabed just goes up as if someone were holding on to it sorry...  also i might have the buttons for those tricks backwards it doesn't really matter anyways just looks kinda cool.



---------------earning tricks---------------------
0 pts.     180's
5pts.      popshovit
10pts.     kickflip
15pts.     varial kickflip  (varial flip)

i dont' remember the rest the game will say when you get a new trick.
remember keep trying different buttons there is still 2 secret tricks and there is a code for people that suck at the game.  And if you are really cheap i suppose you could just edit the programming.. HINT HINT that's why i didn't protect this version.

----------- known bugs ---------------
humm.. not many that i can think of off the top of my head
-the ocasional domain error if you do a trick too close to the right side of the screne easy to fix just tell me what trick you were doing.

if you find any more bugs give me an IM or e-mail  at EAB888@aol.com


also if you can program on ASM  (which i'm not any good at myself)  please feel free to try and make this game if you edit the basic you can get ideas of what to do on asm the zzz  programs are my version of basic sprites just put those into ASM 8x8 sprites or what ever.  if you can do this please e-mail me and give me the program i'd love to see how far this thingy can go.  Another thing is if anyone knows a routine that will make the skate board move faster and not flash as slow  (you can never take out the flashing it's only basic)  then please fix it up and send it to me.  i've spent hours makeing up wierd stuff to make this damn stop flashing really slow and i got it a little better but after playing it as much as i have testing it for bugs it starts to get annoying.  if you could do either of these please send it to me again i'd like to see how far we can go with this.  

------updates?------
if there is any updates i might add lives but i'm not sure might make game too easy

hopefully a ton of new tricks next time i put it on ticalc.org i'm working on that every day in school.

faster... smoother...more enjoyable

GRINDS like in the intro


-----oh yeah the intro-----
