Mutiny is a full-scale, action-packed, pedal-to-the-medal, side-scrolling
shooter, complete with 2 weapons, and 5 enemies to battle!!!!



anyway, here are the controls:
     
UP:             moves your ship up
DOWN:           moves your ship... down!
RIGHT:          do I really need to explain these?
LEFT:           good.

2nd:            SHOOT YOUR MISSILES!!!!
ALPHA:          release the...  *** M E G A B O M B ! ! ! ***
EXIT:           give up and quit
F1:             Pause The Game


note:  This game has 8 direction movement, therefore, pressing UP and
LEFT at the same time will cause your ship to move at a DIAGONAL!!!!!
ALRIGHT!!!!

note2:  the game loops MANY times per second, and each time it loops you
get a chance to hit a key.  when pressing the fire button, you may end
up holding it down for several game loops, releasing several missiles
at once.  What wrong with this, you ask?  well, YOU ONLY GET 3 MISSILES
ON THE SCREEN AT A TIME!!!!! JUST 3!!! USE THEM WISELY!!!

note3:  it is (in theory) possible to die by hitting 2 stars just right...
although this has never happened to me, know that it CAN happen.....




P.S  A huge thanks to Magnus Hagander, Mel Tsai, and Jason Livingston,
     whose help/source code made this game work!  Thanks again!




Okay, now that thats overwith... enjoy your death and let me know what
you think of...
