A Game By Lars Osterballe & Benny Lonstrup

 

 

 

 
Beginners' Tips
PANTHEON consists of two parts:

 (a)The pre-game, and
(b)the main-game.

The pre-game is a scrolling shoot-'em-up arcade game. The second part is a huge arcade-adventure game featuring you as Sergent Silver in ancient Greece ... and later in outer space!

To skip from the pre-game, press ESCAPE when the mini-monitor is red. This happens when the game have finished loading or when you lose a life.

The main-game consists of over 130 screens, of which around 66 are different! Several puzzles have to be solved to complete the game.

It is a very good idea to make a map when playing! By the way: Do not collide with anything red in the pre-game!


Public Domain Information
PANTHEON is a Public Domain game which you may distribute freely as long as you enclose this text file.

A tape creator is included on the diskette, so you can make copies for your less fortunate friends who lack a disk drive! The tape version works with the model B only (maybe for the B+ too). The Master is compatible with the diskette version only.

It took two programmers well over nine months of concentrated work to make PANTHEON. This was because of the sofisticated adventure system and the good graphics that were crammed into approximately 16K RAM. Several times the graphics handler was rewritten to suit the small amount of memory available.

To get the documentation you can write to the authors of the program. For a symbolic amount you can obtain instructions, a map and a cheat sheet thereby making the total pack ShareWare. The storyline for PANTHEON is written by Michael Jakobsen, author of CITADEL.
