GENERAL =------------------------------------------------------------------
Avoid your worm from crashing  by it turning left/right.  The controls are:
1) left/right  2) F1/F2  3) sto/,  4) enter/+
 EXIT : exits to the stats-screen
 MORE : turns your calc off (pauses)
GRAPH : teacher key (not made yet)

STATS-SCREEN =-------------------------------------------------------------
At the end of each game,  the stats-screen will be displayed.  It shows the
score and deaths for each worm. Hit enter to return to the main menu.

SINGLEPLAYER =-------------------------------------------------------------
Move your worm over the "food". When you ate enough food you advance to the
next, more difficult, level.
On the top of the screen you can see  in which level you are, how many peas
you still have to eat, your score and your lives left.

DEATHMATCH =---------------------------------------------------------------
A multiplayer game  where you  have to kill  the other worm(s)  before they
kill you.  When you have no lives left, the game ends.  The number of lives
left for each player are displayed  on the top of the screen.  You can play
with 2-4 humans.

FOODMATCH =----------------------------------------------------------------
Like deathmatch,  with the difference  that your objective  is to score 100
points. You'll get 10 points for taking a pea, if you die however, you lose
10.

HUNTING =------------------------------------------------------------------
In hunting,  the hunter (player 1) has to "catch" the prey (2).  The hunter
must hit the prey  with his head,  killing the prey  and scoring 10 points.
However, the prey gains 5 points for every 250 turns he's alive.  The first
one scoring 100 points wins.

RACE =---------------------------------------------------------------------
In this gametype,  all worms have to move around like race-cars.  The first
one to complete 3 laps wins.

CTF =----------------------------------------------------------------------
Each player has to capture the enemy flag, and return it to his own flag.

DOMINATION =---------------------------------------------------------------
There are several control points which you have to control (by running over
them).  Every ten turns  each player  is given  one point  for each control
point he/she controls. The first one scoring 100 points wins.

OF COURSE =----------------------------------------------------------------
I am not responisble  for any damage Worm causes.  Furthermore, you may not
release an altered version of Worm,  distribute it without this readme file
included, nor may you charge money for it.

HISTORY =------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a historical overview of Worm (facts may not match reality)
* End 1998: Matthew Shepcar released Peaworm, worm in it's simplest form
* Matt didn't release another version with levels and vertical scrolling
* End 1999: I (Shiar) asked him whether I could complete Worm
* Jonah Cohen helped me for a while, but he either died or got bored
* 4/2000: Shiar completed Worm and the program looked worse than ever
