| | MirrorMagicX is a port of the puzzle game Mirror Magic II originally by Holger Schemel. |
|
| |
|
| Introduction
| | ==User guide== |
| ============
| | The object of the game is to first guide the magic wand energy and destroy the spheres and/or other objects. |
| This is a nice little game with color graphics and sound for your
| |
| Unix system with color X11, DOS or Windows. You need an 8-bit color
| |
| display or better.
| |
| It will not work on black&white systems, and maybe not on gray scale
| |
| systems.
| |
|
| |
|
| It was first released as "Mindbender" in the year 1989 on the Amiga
| | Then you must guide the magic wand energy to the exit door. |
| (with ports on other computer systems) and is in fact a clone of the
| |
| C64 game "Deflektor". As the Amiga is a bit outdated now, I decided
| |
| to port it to Unix systems and later to DOS and Windows.
| |
|
| |
|
| | You can put your own MOD music in the music directory. |
|
| |
|
| Getting started
| | ==Controls== |
| =============== | | Use an XBox controller plugged into port #1. |
| Just 'cd' to the 'mirrormagic' directory and type 'mirrormagic'!
| |
| This works only on Linux boxes, because the included binary was
| |
| compiled for Linux systems. If you have another Unix system like
| |
| HPUX, NetBSD or SUN, you first have to type 'make' to compile it.
| |
| This may be needed on Linux systems, too, if you have an older
| |
| system (kernel, libraries, ...).
| |
|
| |
|
| | Left-Stick - Moves mouse |
|
| |
|
| The Menues
| | A - Mouse Button 1 |
| ==========
| |
| You can see eight blue circles on the left side of the eight green menu
| |
| texts; these are buttons to activate the menu commands by simply clicking
| |
| on them with the left mouse button. The button will then change to red.
| |
|
| |
|
| The menu 'name'
| | B - Mouse Button 2 |
| --------------- | |
| First, you have to choose a player name. Just click on the button for the
| |
| 'name' menu. The screen will change and offer 10 player names to choose
| |
| from. At the first time, they will all be 'no name'. Choose the last
| |
| entry 'enter new name', choose one of the 'no name' fields and type in
| |
| your name. It will then appear as the actual player's name on the main
| |
| screen.
| |
|
| |
|
| If you choose a certain special name, you will be in a cheat mode where
| | Start - Keyboard ENTER key (Select menu items) |
| you can choose all levels without playing the lower levels before... :)
| |
|
| |
|
| The menu 'level'
| | Back - Keyboard ESCAPE key |
| ----------------- | |
| If you have played some levels of this game, you can choose the already
| |
| played levels at any time, but you cannot choose the higher levels. This
| |
| means, you can choose levels from level 0 to the highest level that you
| |
| have ever won. This is known as your 'handicap'.
| |
|
| |
|
| To choose a level, click on the two buttons on the left or right hand of
| | Y - Turn cheats on/off |
| the level field. If you click on the button left of the text 'level',
| |
| the level field will switch to '50' or, if >=50, back to '00'. This is
| |
| because the levels '50' to '99' are empty, but you can build your own
| |
| mirrormagic levels with the built-in level editor.
| |
|
| |
|
| Hall of fame
| | D-Pad - Select menu items |
| ------------ | |
| Click on this button to see a list of the best players of this level.
| |
| Click again to go back to the main menu.

| This brings you to the level editor, if you have switched to level 50
| |
| or higher, which are empty and can be filled by yourself. See below.
| |
|
| |
|
| Info screen

| -----------
| |
| This screen shows you all elements which appear in the 50 levels.
| |
| Click again to go back to the main menu.

|
| Start game
| | ==Credits== |
| ---------- | | Super thanks to Lantus for his [http://www.lantus-x.com/SDLx/ SDL-XBox] libraries. |
| This will start the game.

| To change some things in the game, use the setup menu.
| | * Xbox-Scene - https://forums.xboxscene.org/index.php/topic,113721.0.html |
| You can enable/disable "Sound" (enables/disables _all_ sounds in
| |
| the game), "Sound loops" (only allowed on Linux systems with
| |
| VoxWare[tm] sound driver; don't worry if you never heard of it --
| |
| it's the name of the standard Linux sound driver), "Game music"
| |
| (can always be enabled on very fast systems [exception: you don't
| |
| like it], on slower systems it will take some percent of CPU time
| |
| which will slow things down a bit) and "Toons", which will forbid/
| |
| permit the little animated toons.
| |
| | |
| "Exit" quits the setup menu without saving the changes, "Save and exit"
| |
| will save and then return to the main menu.
