DESCRIPTION
A side view scrolling platform game.

CONTROLS
1 - Jump left
0 - Jump right
G - Play Game
A - Abandon

You can also use the cursor keys to move the screen around, to
look further in a particular direction (5, 6, 7, and 8).

INSTRUCTIONS
The aim of the game is to reach the top of the cavern in which
you have become trapped.  The intro at the start shows you how
this happened, if you do not start the game for a few minutes. 
The cavern is made up of various ledges and platforms which you
can use to work your way to the top.

To move around you simply use two keys, for jump left and jump
right.  The amount of time you hold the keys down for determines
how far you jump.  The lights at the bottom of the screen work
as a guage,  but it is so fast this is next to useless.  The way
you jump also means that you nearly always jump at the same
angle.

The only enemy you have in this game is the yellow dragon who is
roaming the caverns, being able to fly as he is.  You only have
one life in this game, and touching this dragon will end that. 
As far as I know there is no other way of dying - you can fall
as far as you like, for example.
