THE GAME
--------

Your task as Chuck Junior is to complete the six different scenes ( which
will be split into numerous scenes) and the three in between sub-games,
eventually end up rescuing Chuck from the downright horrible Brick Jagger.

Chuck Junior has a large wooden club to help him through the game. With
this he can hit enemy dinosaurs, set trapped dinosaurs off, bash parts of
the background away and hit rocks which will move short distances. He can
also set the club on fire which in turn can be used to scare dinosaurs and
as a torch to illuminate dark areas of the map. Junior can also climb on
top of his club so he can dodge harmful traps which cannot be destroyed.

As well as the helpful (trap) dinosaurs, Junior will also be able to ride
on certain ones which will first have to be set free from cages or traps.
When junior is on a dinosaur, it will take the hits (about 5) before it
will run away.

mation relevant to the game.

bottom right of the screen. Every time Junior gets hit the baby bottle
will empty. The baby bottle will flash when Junior has one unit of energy

CHUCK'S CHUMS
-------------

REGGIE THE ROCK EATER: Reggie, once triggered will eat any rocks that block
your way. Reggie could also be encountered later on but full of rocks, so
this time when triggered he spit them out.

MAUD THE MONKEY: Maud loves swinging on ropes. This doesn't help you as
she is in your way. The only thing Maud likes more than swinging on ropes
are bananas. You have to knock the bananas out of the tree so Maud jumps
off the rope and starts eating them, thus ignoring you.

HOBBES THE TIGER: Hobbes will pounce across any large gap but you have to
get on his back without him noticing you. His tail will animate when he is
awake but will stop at certain times. This is the time to sneak up on him.

WATER HYDRANT: When you bash one side of the Hydrant a jet of water will
shoot out of the other side, killing any baddies in its path.


----------------------------------8----------------------------------------

CHUCK'S CHUMS (CONT)
--------------------

THE ANT CONVEYOR: An army of ants will march across the screen. They are
tough little blighters so you can`t kill them.

SUSIE THE SPIDER`S WEB TRAMPOLINE: Junior can bounce on this to help him
reach higher platforms but if he bounces on it for to long, Susie will come
out and try to grab him.

LUCY LIFT OFF: Lucy will just sit there doing nothing but if you set her
tail on fire it will burn down. Then Lucy will shoot up into the air
screaming. If you are standing on her head at this point you will get
blasted upwards.

THOMAS THE TURTLE: Thomas will sit on the edge of a treacherous lava pool.
When knocked in the water Thomas will swim across carrying Junior on his
back.
