	Ladies and Gentlemen,... Welcome to disclaimer! That's right disclaimer.
As for every software available in the world, this game may have some bug-free.
So protect your HP by backing-up your memory. 


Introduction
------------

	Hi everybody ! I hope you'll enjoy this new game for G/GX models.
I adapted it from PlayStation and Saturn to HP in about two months. This
game is coded at 99% in assembly and the rest in Sys-RPL (open I/O port,...).
In this version of Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo (SPF2T for short) there're
only four characters available :( If you want to have a custom version (add or
remove characters), just send me your e-mail and a fee back (US$3, or some
surprises: I'm a fan of Metallica, The OffSpring, Nirvana so you can send me
t-shirts, CDs, posters, or anything about them ! :), then I'll mail you your
version of SPF2T. Notice that SPF2T is a two players game only and you must
have two HPs linked (wire or IR).


Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo rules
-----------------------------------

	Each round'll drop two attached gems from the top of the screen to
the bottom. Arrange them strategically to prepare for the drop of a Crash
Gem. Touch a Crash Gem to a gem of the same color then all gems of the same
color that're linked horizontally or vertically to it will break.
	These'll create Counter Gems that'll be sent to your oppenent's
playfield. Counter Gems'll land on your oppenent's side in the pre-determined
pattern of your character. If you can't get anymore gems, then you lose a round.
	When you receive some Counter Gems, warning messages'll be display in
the upper-left side of the screen. There're three warning messages:
o 'CAUTION' means that you'll receive between one and ten Counter Gems.
o 'WARNING'  ' '    '   ' '    ' '       '    eleven and thirty Counter Gems.
o 'DANGER'   ' '    '   ' '    ' '  more than thirty Counter Gems.


Gems
----

  Normal Gems
  ^^^^^^^^^^^
	These're the regular gems that fall round by round. Counter Gems
turn into Normal Gems after the number of rounds indicated by the gem have
fallen.

  Power Gems
  ^^^^^^^^^^
	When four or more like-colored Normal Gems're placed together in a
certain manner they form large Power Gems.

  Crash Gems
  ^^^^^^^^^^
	The round gems're known as Crash Gems. When dropped on a gem of the
same color, the Crash Gem'll break.

  Counter Gems
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^
	Counter Gems fall on you or your oppenent in a pattern based on your
character. A Counter Gem has a number inside that counts down as each new
round of gems falls. Counter Gems start at five but once they reach zero
they become Normal Gems. You can destroy Counter Gems before they fall on you
by counter-attacking with Counter Gems of your own.

  Rainbow Gems
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^
	Rainbow Gems'll break ALL the same colored gems as the one you land
with the Ranibow Gem. But the amount of Counter Gems dropped on your oppenent
will be reduced.
