Block Attack - Rise Of The Blocks v1.1.2:
-----------------------------------------

This is a MAJOR update , new GFX and player modes!.
---------------------------------------------------

Block Attack - Rise of the Blocks is a puzzle/blockfall game 
inspired by Nintendo's Tetris Attack for the Super Nintendo. 
The game is pretty action packed for a puzzle game :-)
The game is programmed by me (Poul Sander) and is realesed 
under the GPL license version 2.

Since version 1.1.0 the gameplay has been changed. 
This should also make it easier to implement an AI (almost ready)

-----------------------------------

Here is the release notes since last AmigaOS4 release 
(lots of new things added and bugs resolved, 
make sure you check it out!)


Fixed:
Unlimited moves in puzzle bug
Many instances there the CPU got stuck

New:
There are now blocks on the board then starting a new game except in "Stage
Clear"
User can now select puzzle file
User can now reset a puzzle by pushing the "Push" key even if "Game Over"
User can set more option for VS mode
Basic AI, only basic clearing and makes one move every frame!
Saved games are now stored in "Application Data" (Windows 2000+ only)
A new puzzle file, just to test the "select puzzle file" feature
There are new versual feedback then chaining (this is an extreme help)
Vs. Mode for single player with 7 difficulties

Changed:
New graphics
Default player names
New graphics for garbage blocks
Combos give a little more points

Bugs:
If you have solved a puzzle and restart it by pushing "Push", 
 then fail it you winn still see "Winner"
If a puzzle file is extended the new puzzles will appear 
 solved (it has always been like that)
The AI sometimes get stock (especially in Vs. mode since it 
d oesn't know how to clear blocks)
