Subject: F.A.R.M. Patrol 1.0

An irreverent yet challenging game loosely based on the popular 1980's
arcade game "Moon Patrol."

You are the driver of an armored vehicle patrolling the site of a
post-apocalyptic west coast university (hint: Not Cal). Armed with a
cannon and rocket launcher, you must defend yourself against mutant
hordes and navigate a treacherous wasteland. Prepare yourself for
eight grueling levels of giant, rabid, acorn-launching squirrels;
angry, balloon-riding, axe-wielding Cal mascots; and the gaping
ravines left by vicious earthquakes. Bring clean underwear.

REQUIREMENTS:
Macintosh computer (duh)
640x480, 256-color display
1.8 MB of free disk space
4 MB of free RAM

PREFERRED:
QuickTime 2.0 to play music
68040 processor or Power Mac for best speed
Sound Manager 3.1 or better

F.A.R.M. Patrol uses Sprite Animation Toolkit (SAT), the same
animation engine used by games such as Asterax, NeXus, and many
others. F.A.R.M. Patrol also uses the Gandreas Music System to play
background music.

F.A.R.M. Patrol was originally developed as a Senior Project for the
Stanford Computer Science Department. The project group consisted of
five undergraduate CS majors with a really sick sense of humor.

F.A.R.M. Patrol is freeware. Distribute copies as you like, but
please include the original documentation.

Happy hunting, and always shoot before you jump.
