Subj: B.U.G.S. Version 1.56 for OS/2 released

From: "Jeppe Cramon" <usenet@cramon.dk>

Each decade has brought us new challenges - Flower Power, Punk Rock or
designer underwear: We've survived and defeated them all and finally sent
them back to where they belong. But now our oddest nightmares are coming
true - a new enemy is sending masses of invaders to infect our computers,
palmtops, dish washers and even some of the coffee-percolators!

The only way to prepare for the final battle is to live abstinent (OK, this
one isn't _that_ necessary), think fast, practice hard and - of course - use
the appropriate training tool. Therefore, we at Cramon Utilities decided to
create one of the best training devices ever designed, which (as a side
effect) is also:

The Ultimate Arcade Game for OS/2.

So: Fasten your seat belts and blast your way through the hordes of mutant
bugs, spiders and other nasty creatures in this original fast-paced galaga
style arcade game. Dazzling graphics and explosive sounds meet you as you
pilot your lonely ship trying to free the galaxy from Bills Evil BUGS!

Stardock Systems Inc. and Cramon Utilities today relased B.U.G.S. for OS/2
version 1.56
This upgrade fixes some annoyances with window creation/activation and some
other minor issues.

It has been the common belief among OS/2 users that the OS/2 version of
B.U.G.S. has been neglegted compared to the Windows version. This is far
from true. Eventhough there has been a difference in version numbers the
games are, except from small differences in their UserInterface, equal. To
clear this up the new fixpack for the OS/2 version has brought the version
number up to version 1.56 to match the Windows version.

As something quite new the full version of B.U.G.S., which can be downloaded
from Stardocks Commercial Server, is now wrapped in a totally new and cool
GUI installer developed by Douglas Hendrix of the Stellar Frontier fame.
Thanks to Douglas for his help!
Expect to see a release of this cool freeware, crossplatform and open-source
installer later this year :)

Visit the B.U.G.S. Homepage on http://www.stardock.com/products/bugs

Best regards

Your B.U.G.S. Team

Yeah.  This is a port of the popular *nix game XBill.  But I thought in
that version some of the computers were networked and Windoze spread
itself over the network taking over adjacent machines.  Maybe this is an
older version.  Good work anyhow.

All the XBill games that I've seen had them networked.
