What is Monster Mash?
----------------------------
It's just a little arcade game in the style of a game I loved to play on the
C64 and from which I forgot the name of.

System Requirements
-------------------
Every normal Windows PC with a VGA card should be enough.

Installation
------------
Unzip the zip-file WITH FOLDERS. That's all. 

How to play
-----------
When you start the game, your player appears in the bottom left corner
of the display. Use the arrowkeys to steer him and space to shoot. You
need to kill all baddies on one map until you reach the next level. 
The game ends after you have lost all your lifes or when you killed
the boss of the 10th level. F12 produces a screenshot during the game.

The editor
----------
Start edit.bat to get into the editor. Use the following keys to edit:

1,2,...,0: load level x
L:         reload current level
S:         save current level
NUMPAD +:  next tile
NUMPAD -:  previous tile
SPACE:     place tile
ESC:       quit

About this game
---------------
Actually this would have been my entry for the Allegro Speedgame Compo, but I
didn't have time this weekend so I coded it a few days later. Coding time was
4 days + some small fixes I just applied to make it ready for release.
