the game and how to purchase it, launch the game application, wait for 
it to load completely and select ÒBOOM HelpÓ from the Help menu.


WHATÕS BOOM?

BOOM is an arcade game in the grand tradition, bringing the playability 
and feel of the glorious 8-bit consoles on the Macintosh.
It can be described as ÒBomberman meets DoomÓ. Actually, I took the 
basic Bomberman idea and dropped it in a ÒSuper-Deformed DoomÓ scenario 
(whatever this means).
If you don't know what Bombermanª and Doomª are, definitely you've 
never played a computer game. This is the right time to start.

BOOM's main features are:

     ¥ Smooth sprite based animations in 256 colors
     ¥ 8 different soundtracks and multi-channel sound effects
     ¥ Simultaneous two players action
     ¥ 80 different levels
     ¥ 10 different enemy characters varying in intelligence and weaponry
     ¥ Mid-game monsters and a final Super Boss
     ¥ Online high scores


SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

PowerPC processor.
Mac OS 9.0 or later.
