1.Overview
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHAOS PILOT is a simple Shoot'em Up. Your main goal in this game is to beat the 
four levels while avoiding getting blasted to pieces by the Doom-Army. The story? 
Well, lets just say that the Doom-Army is a bounch of bad guys and you are the good guy....

Upon starting the game you must press Y or N on your keyboard to choose fullscreen
or windowed mode. You can also press left or right to view a simple gameplay explanation.

The game has four (long) hard levels each with its own super evil boss at the end. Can you beat
them all? Can you unlock all the achievements? GOOD LUCK!

2.How To Play
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The game does not use mouse and does not support it. Every action done ingame
is done with the keyboard.

You steer your plane with the cursors. Shoot with Z and drop bombs by pressing X. (See 
2.1 below on how to change controls.)

To upgrade your ship you must collect XP orbs which is dropped by exploding enemies.
Once you have enough XP you will advance one step up the upgrade bar which is located
at the bottom of the screen. Once you have reached the upgrade you want press space to
upgrade. Now you will have to start at the beginning of the Upgrade bar. The longer you
keep collecting XP orbs the more advanced upgrades you will reach.

Achievements unlocked will grant you bonuses when you play the game.
For example if you unlock the Vanquisher & Hero achievement you will
start your next game with +10 to max Shield. (see section under for a complete list
over the achievements.)
