POWER DRIFT

It's fast... It's furious... It's POWER DRIFT!

Choose from twelve wacky drivers, like Jason the Skinhead or Jeronimo the Mohican and rev your way through 27 stomach churning circuits! Watch the dust fly and the wheels spin as you screech over a roller-coaster track and wave goodbye to your opponents!

Roar over mounds of mud, drive through the desert, slip n slide on snow covered tarmac and race your way through the night to face the final lap!

MENU OPTIONS

The following options are available from the game menu:

1. Sensitivity Adjust - In joystick/keyboard control mode, this causes a cycling of the three sensitivities (speed with which the car turns from side to side). In mouse control mode, this enables the user to define the required scaling for the mouse and a separate instruction screen is displayed.

2. Control Adjust - This toggles between mouse and joystick/keyboard control. Control selected at startup is mouse.

To start the game, click any mouse button if mouse control mode is selected, otherwise press FIRE or either SHIFT key. The course selection screen will then be entered.

This is used to select the course which you wish to play. Use left and right to select the course you wish. Press the gear change control when the driver arrow points to the driver that you want to select. Alternatively, press SPACE instead to select, without game music. After this, the course will be loaded off disk and the game will begin.

In joystick control mode, if it is possible for the users joystick to register both left and right together (or if left and right on the keyboard are held down together), then the car will keep its current turn position.

The gear change control is used to toggle the current gear between high (H) and low (L).

The game may be paused at any stage by pressing HELP. It may be resumed by pressing RETURN, or abandoned by pressing ESC.

To enter a high score into the table, use left and right movement of the selected control device to choose the desired character. This character can then be selected by pressing the gear change control. Characters can be deleted using the BACKSPACE or DELETE keys on the keyboard. The fourth character cannot be deleted as it is the final one.
