I. How to Play:

You're in the right side of the screen in a tiny 
opening.  The cursors move the plotter (white plus
sign) and the cute little cyan button makes the
plotter put a yellow breakable underneath the cursor.
If the plotter is blocked there, it will just not do it.
Thus you cannot plot over Zem or floors or anything 
(there is an exception to this rule in one level...)
Do not put your plotter next to anything that will kill
Zem or pass the level for you (ie the portal).  It will
make the level impassable.

II. History Notes:

Well, I'll be darned.  This is a Newt game.  I, Newt made it.  That's why it is a Newt game.  I got the idea 
in July (give or take a month) 1998.  It was really 
strange at first but the engine began to take shape
and I really became interested in it.  All other 
projects were ditched for the time being.
The game was actually "finished" by September.  However,
since this is a totally new type of game, I wanted it
released with a bang.  Z3 (http://zzt.net/z3/) gave me
that opprotunity.  The first one was half-way through
November.  It didn't receive rave reviews, but Ethan
Hunt said there were bugs.  Zenith helped me fix one
where you can plot over Zem or anything else.
So this brings me to this release.  I fixed that plot-
over-Zem bug.  That's pretty much it.  I think it's an
excellent game (imnsho).  Honestly, though, I believe
it could be the birth of a new genre.

III. Credits

Everything in the whole blasted game was by me, Newt.
There are some other acknowledgements at the end of the
game.  But that's about it.
