This Game Is Freeware - you can do whatever you want to do with it. The
source code is distributed with it, you'll need DJGPP compiler and Allegro
library to compile it.
If you want to use for commercial purposes you need to obtain permission
from me, just kindly ask and let me know, you will always get it anyway.

   All you need is fairly decent computer (at least 486), capable of
displaying SVGA graphics, with sound card, and a mouse. It should run
under win95 dos prompt, win3.1 dos prompt and plain DOS, and probably
future versions of windows (win2000?)

  K E Y S:
Key pad keys to move in all directions. Make sure you have num lock off!!!
B  - Drop bomb
T  - Teleport
F1 - Get Help on keys
F2 - Start New Game
G  - Toggle grid on and off
H  - View High Scores
1 to 0 number keys - to practice shooting at levels from 1 to 10

   The purpose of the game is simple: KILL BARNEYS!!!
   You do it by making 2 or more barneys move into the same place,
then they collide and die, and grave appears at the spot. If a barney
walks into that grave he DIES too.  You can also use bombs, and every
barney around you will die. Each time you move, teleport, or drop bomb
barneys move towards you.  Teleportation is used when you have to place to
go.  But be warned because when you teleport you might appeart next to a
barney and he will EAT you, besides you lose points for that.
   For each level you get one bomb, and there is also a bomb on the map,
if you get it, it's yours, and if you make barney walk into it, he'll die.
You finish level when you kill all the barneys. There is 5 of them in
first level but the number increses by one in each level.
   When you finish level, you go to bonus round. You get to shoot barneys
and they can't kill you. They just run and you shoooooooot.  The number
of barneys depends on how many graves you have put in the level. And the
higher the level the faster they run. You can use keys 1 to 0 to go to
shooting practice at any time.  Pressing 1 will get you to bonus level 1
and you get 16 barneys to shoot, key 2 is level 2 and so forth.
The faster you shoot barney the more points you get. You just use mouse to
aim and left button to shoot.

     One day, as you get home from work, you notice your three-year-old
son is watching the incredibly putrid show, "Barney and Freinds".  You
immediately shut it off and ask your kid, "Why on Earth do you watch that
crap?"
     "Cute purple dinosaur," he says.
     "No, Barney is an annoying little puke," you retort.
     "Cute purple dinosaur," he spouts back at you.
     "Look, I just don't want you watching that show.  Barney sets a bad
example for you little kids.  Alright?"
     He looks at you quizzically.  "Cute purple dinosaur," he says again.
     Over the next few days, all you can get out of him is, "Cute purple
dinosaur.  Cute purple dinosaur."  It's driving you insane.
     That night, your wife tells you she has something urgent to show you.
"Look at this.  The Romans used V's instead of U's, right?   So then CUTE
PURPLE DINOSAUR would become CVTE PVRPLE DINOSAVR."
     "So?" you say.
     "So, let's take out all the roman numerals.  C,V,V,L,D,I,V."
     "Yeah, so?"
     "Add them up."
     You take out a calculator, and add them up.  100+5+5+50+500+1+5.
"My god.  It's 666!"
     Your wife nods grimly.  "Barney is Satan, and he's possessed our son."

especialy:
D J Delorie      - for making DJGPP
Shawn Hargreaves - for making excelent game library ALEGRO
Jeremy Penner    - for giving me idea. Barney Mutilator inspired me to
                   do this game.

ktb.exe     - executable file

ktb.cc      - source code file
ktb.h       - include file for data file
readme.txt  - this file
cwsdpmi.exe - you'll need this program to run KillTheBarney under plain dos
              if you use Win95 dos prompt you do not need it.
              By Charles W. Sandmann sadmann@clio.rice.edu

To compile the source you would need DJGPP v2.0 or higher and Allegro
2.2 or higher. Just use:
gcc -o ktb.exe ktb.cc -lalleg
and include any optimizations you want.
