1) Special Message from the MMfan:

Thanks for downloading the first two Marc the Superkid TI games. They are realitivly easy, even
on hard mode, so don't expect to much of a challenge. But just you wait, once I figure out how to
do ASM I'll make some great Marc the Superkid (and maybe a others) games!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2) Getting Started:

(1) Hook up your TI-Graphlink cable to your computer
(2) Start the special software for your calc.
(3) Send MtS.83g or MtS.8xg (depending on your calc) to the calculator.
(4) If you don't have a Graphlink, you'll have to ungroup the files then manually type it in until you get one. Painfully
tedious :(
(6) At the menu screen of Superkid 3, choose to start the game or load a game (if you've
previously played before)
(7) Choose the mode of difficulty
(8) To choose your opponent, press the number corresponding to the box.
	789
	456
	123
(9) You can't take on Songi (the middle box) until you defeat the other robots.

3) The Story So Far:

It is the final battle against your archenemy, Songi. You've reached his secret lair, but he is well guarded. He created the 8 Robot Lords of Power which you must defeat to regain your Emerald and powers. However, Songi is very smart. He created his robots from your stolen powers and they have the a each have a special ability to destroy you with. Can you beat Songi so your can return to Mobius and take on the possessed Sonic? We can only hope.

5) Marc the Superkid's Arsenal:

In this game, you get a better, however fewer, selection of attacks. Like before, when you beat one of the robot masters you receive their highest attack. Here's a list of what you'll receive and from who:

1-Water Wave-Aqua God
2-Atomic Fireballs-Lava Lizard
3-Deep Freeze-Frosty
4-Finishing Wind-AirMan
5-Psybeam-Mysterio
6-Thunder Bolt Cut-Charger
7-Holy Judgement-Fallen Angel
8-Meteor Rain-Blurk

6) Known Bugs

Being a program in BASIC and my limited skills, there are quite a few bugs in the games. For example, if you use you're special attack when you are to the right of the robot, the game will give an error. Correcting this would make the program much larger and, therefore, much slower. You MUST not press the buttons quickly, like you can do on Mortal Kombat or other fighting style games because the calc will run out of memory. Lastly, if it appears that you have one : left and so does your opponent and your opponent attacks first (as he's close by), you'll probably die instead of the robot. This is because Marc's health bar is checked before the robots health bar so it'll be like that was a final strike from you before you die. Sorry to get your hopes up on this one.
