Benny Hill's Madcap Chase
=========================

Introduction
------------
Benny has kindly volunteered to help his neighbours.

His first task is to bring in the washing for Mrs Harras, who has gone out
shopping. You will find Benny in front of the laundry basket. Get Benny to
fill it with all the items to be found on the washing line.

Unfortunately, it's quite a distance between you and the line and there are
numerous pieces of "street furniture" and other items dotted about which must
be avoided if you want to get the job done quickly. The Local Council can't
make up its mind where to site lamp posts and other small items so these may
be *moved* from time to time.

To make matters worse, your good deed will be misunderstood by any members of
the public who spot you taking the washing or running along the street with
it. They will chase after you and if you're caught, you will be *dealt with*,
and the item you're carrying will be put back. They will continue to harrass
you from then on. A "Watch Out" sign lets you know if a chaser is coming your
way.

All the clothes have to be collected in the given time. You can only carry
one item.

If you get all the washing in on time, you then go on to the second little
job, which is to pick apples for Mr Bramley, who is away on holiday. The
third and last task is to pick up items of jumble bought by Mrs Bargin.



Scoring
-------
Score 20 for every item delivered to the box or basket. Lose some points for
every time you're caught or bump into things.

At the end of each task the time left over is added to the current score as a
bonus.




Game Controls
-------------
Up will jump you back, and Down will bring you forward.

You can't move backwards or forwards if any part of you is covering an object
or person in the way. Items can be collected and delivered using Up while
standing or running at the right.

There is no Hold control so you must keep going. However, you can have a well
earned rest between jobs.

The joystick fire button, (or appropriate key chosen), will completely
restart the game at any time.
