Introduction
------------
In the year 2199, the Spaceship 'Epic' was caught in a 
plasma storm and forced off-course through a space
warp into unknown space. Due to damage sustained
during the storm, the Epic was forced to land upon
an apparently uninhabited planet for urgent repairs.

Whilst there, the ship was boarded by an Alien Life
Form (ALF).

Repairs made, the ship set off on its journey home to
Altontron. It was then that the crew became aware of the ALF.
Investigations of the ALF by the medical centre
produced the following data.

1)  The ALF was a virus type of creature with an
    incubation period of 12 days.
2)  After 12 days, it metamorphosed into pools of
    slime with the ability to grow and move.
3)  After a short period, these pools became a slime
    walking monster.
4)  The final transformation was into a large walking
    slime-throwing monster, some of which appear
    to have the power to turn invisible.

Several crew members have were killed upon encountering
the ALF. The captain of the Epic gave the order to
abandon ship and the crew teleported to a nearby
planetoid to await rescue. The last crew member to 
leave activated the ships "Cleansing" system. Its Servo droids
are tasked to destroy all the ALFs on the ship. On hitting
an ALF, it will self-destruct, leaving their energy
rolls behind.

He also sends the following mayday message:

TSS - EPIC TO UFP COMMAND
SHIP OVERRUN WITH ALF'S 
SEND N.E.I.L. DROIDS KILL ALL LIFEFORAAAAARRRHHH!!!



Playing The Game
----------------
You play the part of N.E.I.L., the half-human, half-cyborg,
mercenary who can go where no human can.

Arriving at the location of the TSS Epic, you have
teleported aboard to clear the ship of ALF's in order
for the crew to return and continue their voyage.

At the bottom right of the screen are three Icons.
From top to bottom these are:

Oxygen Counter - If this reaches 0, N.E.I.L. loses a
life. This Icon will flash if 1 energy cell will transfer the
energy into this.

Ammo Counter - If this reaches 0, you are out of
ammo. Should you have two energy cells, pressing 
space will increment the ammo counter.

Smart Bomb - This requires 3 energy cells.  Pressing
'space' to activate will destroy all ALF's in the room.

So there you have it, the mission is yours if you accept
it.  Good Luck.
