# Story

Sir Boingers and his trusty bouncebird have quite an affinity for cupcakes. However, said cupcakes only exist in a place called the Dangerzone. Thus it is the task of Sir Boingers to fetch as many cupcakes as he can while he's in this zone.

Good luck!

# Controls

# Items

There are several items in the game:

- Cupcakes (add to score)
- Spikes and fire (hurt you)
- Red spikes and pits (kill you)
- Powerups (temporarily or permanently enhance you)

Most of these are explained in more detail in the tutorial level or whenever you encounter them in-game.

# Level editing

You are able to create your own level sets for this game and redistribute them.

For instructions on how to make your own levels and sets, see startup/docs/map-editor-instructions.html.

# Mac/Linux users

The game ships with a Windows version of Sphere (the game creation system used to create this game). Sphere works perfectly in Wine, however, should you want a Linux or Mac native version of Sphere (only the game engine, not the editor), you can compile it yourself by following the instructions on this page.

# Speed issues

In-game, you can press F11 to see the exact framerate in the top-right corner of the screen. It should always be showing around an FPS of 30. If the game runs slowly for you, you could try switching the video settings for the game. You can do this in the configuration tool included with the game (config.exe).

The first thing you could try is click "configure driver" and disable Scale (2x). You could also try changing the video driver itself to sphere_gl.dll.
