1. Game Description

Mine Field is a strategy game that involves getting the player (the smiley face) across the map to the white round thing (the finish) on the other side before time runs out. You will only know how many mines are currently around you to try and get to the finish. This game was programmed in FreeBasic.

2.
To play the game you must run Minefield2.exe The game will then run, you can change it to full screen by holding alt and pressing enter, this also will minimise the screen, if done when the screen is full. The original game that has ASCII(text) graphics and was programmed in 90mins for a competition can be played by running minefield.exe

3.

The game is pretty taxing from using the fading effect, this is why a system of at lest

1Ghz Processor (maybe lower, not tested)
256 (maybe lower, not tested)
8 Mb gfx card (maybe lower, not tested)
Mouse
Keyboard

If you have no idea what any of this means then you could just try running the program to see if it works. If you have a newer computer it should work fine.

I can't really help here because the problem could be many, many things. If you do have a problem then e-mail me at cant.get.nixon@gmail.com
