How to run 'Bitman Fighter'
 Run the Bitman.exe file and Bitman Fighter will load up.  Warning: The authors accept no liability for shock-induced death caused by playing this game.  If you are epileptic we reccommend you speak to your doctor for advice and play this game for no longer than 5 seconds
at a time. If you still have problems then follow these six simple steps:

1) Go to top floor of nearest tall building
2) Jump off building.
3) Fall a long way.
4) Hit floor
5) Go 'Splat!' and turn into a big, red pancake
6) Be dead.

How to play :        
 Bitman fighter is essentially a showpiece to display the immense potential
of the text-based beat 'em up.  Choose to attack or not attack and watch your
fighter either perform a vicious attack on his opponent or get
beaten up himself using a variety of gruesome death moves.

Hints and tips :
 Should you win ten games during one session of Bitman Fighter then you have the chance to fight
The Grand master Bitman. Quake in his presence 'cos he's one mean muthafucka :). Keep an eye out for hidden moves that can produce incredible attacks (sometimes good, sometimes very bad). Also, bear in mind that there's more than one way to finish the game so watch out for the 'stoned hippy' ending amongst others!

To contact the author
 Bitman Fighter is freeware but if you love this game so much that you want to give me loads of
cash ( I wish!) then e-mail Rhodri Williams at rhods_w@hotmail.com. A nice job programming computer games would also be welcome (a text version of Tomb Raider anyone?).
You can also contact me via telekenisis or by shouting very, very loudly.
