           Hiltunen Must Die v1.1 - (C) Tee / ULTRANUS TM 2001 - 2003


General info

	This is a freeware game. You may and should copy and spread it around,
	free of charge. You may not alter the contents of the zip archive
	(Hiltunen.exe, Luemut.txt, Readme.txt, Data.dat, File_id.diz).

	ULTRANUS TM is in no way responsible for the damage this software might
	cause. All rights reserved.

	Hiltunen must DIE is a magnificent, hectic new 3D-shooter - a game that
	will without doubt prove to be a cornerstone in the so grim and gray
	FPS genre. The astounding QBASIC based 3D engine delivers fast and
	smooth action even with slightly older machines.

	There are no sound effects in the game. If you need them, you may
	freely imitate the shotgun roar using your own mouth.


	"This game changed my whole life. I just like couldn't stop crying. The
	ending was so beautiful. It's so gorgeous!" - Nikki, Massachusetts

	"It's a miracle! My nephew who we thought to have been permanently
	blinded in a tent fire regained his vision after playing your game.
	Surely you'll accept cash donations?" -H. Fgerholm

	"Such a load of crap" - Jim, 13


The cunning plot

	As the sinister mister Hiltunen arrives at the town of Bottomhill,
	problems come in truckloads. His madness machine turns citizens to
	raving, homicidal lunatics. Oh, who is there to help the poor old
	humanity at its darkest hour?

	A hero, that's who. And who else would take the role of one, if not the
	daring player herself. It's time to do in the villains and cut open the
	stomachs of wrongdoers. Muscles oiled and veins pulsating, the hero
	packs several mighty firearms and enough lead for a small nation.
	Hiltunen must die!


The keys and the instructions

	This is how it works: You try to aim at and shoot down the enemies one
	by one. The aiming device moves by sliding, and you don't need to hold
	the keys down. Switch weapons to better cope with each new situation
	and use grenades only when you absolutely must. It takes time to load
	the weapon, and beating the space bar senseless won't do many miracles
	for you. As the enemies die exploding, they will occasionally release
	additional weapons and grenades. The player energy also increases when
	completing a level.

	There are nine levels and three major baddies. Levels require from ten
	to twenty killings, depending on the difficulty level. The abilities of
	the enemies vary according to their looks.


	The menu keys

	1 - 3       - difficulty level
	SPACE       - start the game
	RETURN      - password
	ESC         - quit the game

	The game keys

	ARROW KEYS  - aim
	SPACE       - shoot
	1 - 4       - a revolver, an uzi, a shotgun and grenades

	P           - pause
	ESC         - suicide


The present and possible future of ULTRANUS

	It remains to be seen whether or not Hiltunen will come back in the
	form of a sequel. If there is enough enthusiasm and time (it's
	doubtful), who knows..? A two player update come to mind as possible
	addition.

	YOU can make a difference! Found a bug (nah, there's none)? Had an idea
	(nope, not you)? An exuberant amount of feedback and praise will surely
	ensure that the saga will continue. Be the first on your block to send
	money and presents (or just feedback).
