DISCLAIMER - PLEASE READ BEFORE RUNNING STYX-PC:
================================================
I assume no responsibility for any damage or loss of data that may
caused directly or inderectly by this software (Styx-PC). I also do not
accept any responsibility for any injury to you, your family or your pets.
You use this software at your own risk.

Sorry to sound so heavy, but I'm just covering myself. I don't want
someone accusing me of sending their pooch mad or anything :)



Styx-PC v1.0 - 23rd March 1999.
==================================
This is the first final release of Styx-PC.
The game *should* be fully working!

Please note that this is more of an inspirational conversion, 
rather than an exact copy of the Spectrum version. So please don't
flame me if the gameplay isn't exactly the same as the Spectrum's.


To run Styx-PC:
===============
You'll need Windows95 or Windows98. Styx-PC *might* run under NT, but
I haven't tried it.

Also, you will need DirectX (If you have Win98 then you already have it),
version 3 or better should be ok.


The keys:
=========
You can use the cursor keys to move around the play-area or, if you
prefer, you can use the following:

Q - up
A - Down
O - Left
P - right

SPACE - fire

M - toggle music on/off
ESC - Abort game (exit to windows from title screen)
F12 - Quit to Windows.


Misc. Info:
===========
If you want to copy, distribute or put this version of Styx on your
website then please feel free to do so. The only thing I ask is that
do not make any charge and you include this readme.txt file.
Styx-PC is FREEWARE.


Known Issues:
==============
There is a problem with the in-game music (it slows down sometimes!).
