BUBBLE GHOST - MANUAL
=====================


STORY
-----

The crazy inventor Heinrich Von Schtinker is dead. Or so we thought until
the nightwatchman told us his fantastic tale of the haunting of Von
Schtinker's old castle. Yes it has been confirmed. Heinrichs' spirit
(a.k.a. Bubble Ghost) has been blowing a bubble throughout the macabre
halls of his ancestral home. Your job is to help Bubble Ghost move the
bubble through the 35 rooms of the castle, past all the mad inventions of
Von Schtinker. Once the little ghostie makes it through, the haunting will
cease.


GETTING STARTED
---------------

When the game has loaded to the high score screen, press the left mouse
button to start the game.
You may also just wait and watch a self-running introduction to some of the
halls in Von Schtinker's haunted castle.


GHOSTLY MOVEMENT
----------------

Bubble Ghost is indestructible. He can touch and cross over any object
without injury. Unfortunately the bubble is not so lucky. If it touches any
object, it pops. Note: The ghost may touch the bubble without popping it.
You start with 6 bubbles (5 in your bubble pouch, plus the one you are
blowing on), but you can get more (see Extra Lives). The number of bubbles
shown at the bottom of the screen indicates the number of bubbles in your
Bubble Pouch.
Use the mouse to move the ghost around the screen. To move the ghost to
another angle, click the mouse buttons. The left mouse button rotates him
counter-clockwise, while the right button rotates him clockwise. Rotate the
ghost to blow the bubble around corners and obstacles.


MOVING THE BUBBLE
-----------------

To move the bubble, Bubble Ghost must blow on it. To blow, press the SHIFT
or ALTERNATE key. The distance between the bubble and the ghost affects the
strength of the blowing action. The closer they are, the more the bubble
moves. Don't blow too long without letting Bubble Ghost breathe, or he'll
turn red in the face and lose points. In addition to blowing the bubble,
Bubble Ghost must blow on objects in the castle to clear the way for the
bubble (See Tricks & Techniques).


COMPLETING A LEVEL / EXTRA LIVES
--------------------------------

There are 35 rooms (levels). To complete a level, blow the bubble across
the screen to the exit. Some levels have more than one exit. These "Secret
Passageways" let you skip levels and bypass some of Von Schtinker's
inventions.
You start the game with 6 lives (bubbles). If a bubble pops, you lose a
life. Extra lives are awarded after successfully completing the following
levels: 5, 11, 17, 23 and 29.


SCORING POINTS
--------------

Points are awarded after completing a level as described below:

EFFECTIVE BREATHING TECHNIQUES: If you complete the level without turning
  Bubble Ghost red, you earn 1000 points.

TIME LEFT ON THE BONUS COUNTER: At the bottom of the screen is a long
  horizontal bar that keeps getting shorter. This is the Bonus Bar. The
  faster you get through the room, the higher your bonus.

DISCOVERING CASTLE SECRETS: Bubble Ghost must blow on objects in the castle
  to clear the way for the bubble. Solving one of these puzzles earns 5000
  points.


TRICKS & TECHNIQUES
-------------------

In addition to secret passageways (see Completing a Level), there are other
mysteries in the castle. Bubble Ghsot must blow on certain objects to clear
the way for the bubble. We don't want to give it all away, but if a candle
was making things a little too hot for you, what would you do? And what
about the fans? You'll never get by unless you discover their secret. There
are other secrets, but....


COMMAND SUMMARY
---------------

Left mouse button  - rotate ghost counter-clockwise
Right mouse button - rotate ghost clockwise

The following keys are good to know about:

SHIFT     - blow
ALTERNATE - blow
P         - pause the game. P again to resume.
