-EXIT : exits to the stats-screen.

-the score and deaths for each worm. Hit enter to return to the main menu.
-
-*** SINGLEPLAYER
-Move your worm (left/right) 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.
-
-*** PEAWORM
-Get as many peas possible in a single level.
-
-*** 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 this game, 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 its own flag.
-
-*** DOMINATION
-There are several control points which you have to control. Every ten turns
-each player is given one point for each control point he/she controls.
-The first one scoring 100 points wins.
-
-*** LEVELS &&&
-The file WORMLVL.Z80 can be altered to create your own levels. Compile this
-file by running WORMLVL.BAT. Levels may be distributed freely, but I would
-appreciate it if you send me a copy of your levels.

+ Wormy comes together with WORMEDIT, the Wormy level editor for DOS
+ I wrote. Start wormedit.exe and make some kick-ass levels! (Please do!!)
+Also send me your levels so I can put them on my page. More info at shiar.org.
+Note the editor is still beta and incomplete, and may crash your pc or calc.
+Use with caution and clue, and don't complain! You have been warned ;)

+ Argh, a disclaimer :( Just note Wormy was a non-profit project
+ which took a lot of my (spare) time, so please don't go demand
+ stuff (just _ask_ me) or sue me (f)or anything. By default
+ I am not responsible for any damage Wormy causes. Furthermore,
+ you may not: release an altered version of Wormy (the source
+ has been included for learning practises ONLY), distribute
+ it w/o this readme file included (plz leave the zipfile
+ intact). Any questions and stuff, just _ask_ me!

+
+ This is a short historical overview of Worm(y):
+ (facts may not match reality)
+ - End 1998 - Matthew Shepcar releases Peaworm, worm in its simplest form
+ - Scabby didnt release another version with levels and vertical scrolling
+ - End 1999 - I (Shiar) got his permission to entirely screw up his Worm >:)
+ - Jonah Cohen helped me for a while, but soon he either died or got bored
+ - June 2000 - Worm just didn't want to work correctly (linkplay problems
+ mostly), so I decided to take a break to continue later..
+ - Feb 2001 - After a huge break I figured it's time to complete Worm(y)
+- March 2002 - Completed at last, and everyone lived happily ever after
+
+ So, it's _finally_ done. It should be pretty playable and bugless
+ (no guarantees :P) Hope it was worth the wait. I may release
+ some new versions later, prolly with more levels,
+ improvements to the editor, fixes,
+ or 'maybe'-stuff...
