About This File
Thoroughly Modern Willy v0.02
--------------------------------
(April 23rd spectrumcomputing.co.uk minigame competition)
Whilst sorting through boxes in an attempt to tidy up the attic, Willy stumbled across some machinery left by the previous owner, Dr Jones. As he investigated further, he knocked a switch over and the machinery started to hum into life. Before Willy can say 'Quirkafleeg' there is a blinding light...
As his sight returns, Willy determines he is no longer in the attic. He's been flung into the future - space year 2018 to be precise. Willy proceeds to do what he's always done when faced with a tight spot - collect all the flashing objects - strewn across six screens - and hope for the best!
Some hints for getting by in the future:
- Switches can change the layout of a room and make areas safe or unsafe.
- It's unwise to move around in the dark.
- Willy's box moving skills are still useful in the future.
