Welcome to Project 64!

The goal of Project 64 is to preserve Commodore 64 related documents
in electronic text format that might otherwise cease to exist with the
rapid advancement of computer technology and declining interest in 8-
bit computers on the part of the general population.

Extensive efforts were made to preserve the contents of the original
document.  However, certain portions, such as diagrams, program
listings, and indexes may have been either altered or sacrificed due
to the limitations of plain vanilla text.  Diagrams may have been
eliminated where ASCII-art was not feasible.  Program listings may be
missing display codes where substitutions were not possible.  Tables
of contents and indexes may have been changed from page number
references to section number references. Please accept our apologies
for these limitations, alterations, and possible omissions.

Document names are limited to the 8.3 file convention of DOS. The
first characters of the file name are an abbreviation of the original
document name. The version number of the etext follows next. After
that a letter may appear to indicate the particular source of the
document. Finally, the document is given a .TXT extension.

The author(s) of the original document and members of Project 64 make
no representations about the accuracy or suitability of this material
for any purpose.  This etext is provided "as-is".  Please refer to the
warantee of the original document, if any, that may included in this
etext.  No other warantees, express or implied, are made to you as to

ring.

On Screen Displays

[Picture omitted, but I write down what are those things on the
screen]

Bar on the left: PLAYER 1 STRENGTH
Bar on the right: PLAYER 2 STRENGTH
Number below strength bar: COUNT-OUT
Text between the two bars: PINNED COUNT
The two guys are: PLAYER 1 and PLAYER 2

As the strength bar decreases, the Superstar will find it harder to
recover from being winded and will have increasing difficulty in
getting back up from the floor.

Your Superstar may be hurt in various ways. For example:

Receiving a blow
Being knocked down
Missing his opponent with a flying move
Being thrown

The Timers will appear at the top of the screen only when active. The
Count-Out timer starts when a Superstar leaves the ring. If the count
reaches 10, the player concerned is disqualified. The Pinned Count
starts whenever a Superstar is pinned. If the count reaches three, the
match ends and the pinning talent wins.

NOTE: If a talent is counted out because he has left the ring, the
match will not end until the other talent is inside the ring. It is,
therefore, possible for both wrestlers to be disqualified. In this
event there will be a rematch.


HOW TO CONTROL YOUR SUPERSTAR

Your WWF* Superstar may be controlled by joystick only.

Your WWF* Superstar can perform the following moves:

Walking - Left or right. If you change direction while walking, your
Superstar will turn around.

Running - Double tap your joystick in the current walking direction
and your Superstar will start to run. He will keep running until you
release the joystick. Your opponent will be knocked down if you
collide with him.

If your Superstar runs into the ropes, he will keep running and
bouncing off the ropes on either side of the ring. A quick change of
direction on the joystick and he will continue to run in this new
direction.

Running Roll - Push DOWN on the joystick while running and your
Superstar will execute a Running Roll. If you hit an opponent during
this manoeuvre, you will knock him down.

Shoulder Charge - If your Superstar runs into his opponent while he is
walking or standing, your opponent is knocked to the ground. If you
are both running then you will both fall flat on your back.

Flying Kick - Push FIRE on the joystick while your Superstar is
running to execute a Flying Kick in the same direction.

This move may also be executed if your Superstar is standing on top of
a cornerpost - push your joystick in the appropriate direction, toward
the centre of the ring.

Running Dive - While running, push UP on the joystick for a Running
Dive.

Climbing a Post - If your Superstar is standing in a corner of the
ring, push the joystick toward the post and he will climb up it.

Dive (when on top of post) - You can attack an opponent from his
standing position when on top of the post by pushing UP on the
joystick.

Jump Down - Push DOWN on the joystick and your Superstar will jump
down from the corner post.

Out of the Ring - If you wish to leave the ring, move to the front
ropes and push against them; after a short delay, your Superstar will
climb through the ropes and jump outside the ring. You may, however,
be thrown from or roll out of the ring.

Push toward the ring with the joystick and your Superstar will climb
back in.

If you fail to make it back into the ring before the count reaches 10,
your Superstar will be disqualified and he forgeits the match to his
opponent.

The following two moves are each performed by pressing fire. However,
the distance between your Superstar and his opponent will dictate
which move is executed.

Standing Slap - Medium range
Standing Kick - Long range

Clothesline - To perform this defensive move press FIRE as your
opponent is running past. If you time it correctly, he will fall flat
on his back.

Cover-Head - When an opponent is running at you, press FIRE and your
Superstar will bend over and cover his head with his arms. If the
opponent then collides with you and your Superstar is strong enough,
he will throw the opponent up and over his head.

Dropkick - If you press FIRE while your opponent is running at you,
and he is not close enough for your Superstar to try a Cover-Head, he
will attempt a Dropkick. If the kick fails to connect or the
Cover-Head is unsuccessful, your Superstar may be hurt.

Stomp - Press FIRE when your opponent is lying on the ground in front
of you and your Superstar will stomp him.

Elbowdrop - Press FIRE and UP to make your Superstar perform this
move.  (You cannot execute this move while your opponent is running.)

Pin - This move will only operate if your opponent is lying on the
ground. Press FIRE and DOWN while your Superstar is standing near the
middle of your opponent's body.

If you are being pinned, rapidly pressing FIRE will help to force your
opponent off. However, if a Pin lasts for a count of three, the match
is over and the pinning Superstar is declared the winner.

Pick-Up - If your Superstar is strong enough, he can pick up a winded
opponent. Press FIRE while standing in front of him.

If your Superstar has been picked up by an opponent, quickly move your
joystick from left to right and he may be able to struggle free.

Throw - If your Superstar is holding on opponent above his head, he
can throw him to the ground by pushing LEFT, RIGHT or UP on the
joystick.

Knee Slam - Push/pull DOWN on the joystick while your Superstar is
holding an opponent above his head and he will execute a Knee Slam.

Rolling - While your Superstar is lying on the ground, push UP or DOWN
on the joystick and he will roll in either direction as required and
trip up his opponent.

NOTE: If your Superstar is hurt, he may not respond to any attempted
moves until he has regained sufficient strength.

Armlock - When your Superstar is close to an opponent, they may lock
arms. You must react quickly to gain an adventage. Press FIRE rapidly
to build up your strength. If you are strong enough to win the
Armlock, you will either pick up your opponent or force him to run in
the direction he is facing, allowing him to bounce off the ropes if he
is close enough.  Your Superstar may then attack his opponent as he is
bounce off the ropes.

NOTE: If neither wrestler wins an Armlock in a 2-player practice bout,
both players will remain in an Armlock.


HINTS AND TIPS

Try to force your opponent out of the ring. Throws to the floor will
hurt more than throws inside the ring.

Try to use the outside ring timers to your adventage by striking a
knock-down manoeuvre on your opponent - you may be able to climb back
into the ring and have your opponent counted out. Beware - this may
also happen to you!

Try to wind your opponent near the ropes so that he can be thrown out
of the ring.

If you win an Armlock and the opponent is sent running toward the
ropes be ready to use an attacking move as he is bounced off the ropes
towards you.
