Jewel Thief video game
Hi, and welcome to Jewel Thief!
HOW TO PLAY
Your goal is to steal as many jewels as you can. by running over the jewels
with your mouse while avoiding the guards. Once you steal all the jewels on
a level, a new set of guards will appear. The scene changes every two levels.
You lose a man every time a guard touches you or you leave the playing field.
Once you steal the diamonds, you will find out about the jewel of great price.
HISTORY and HUMOR
Jewel Thief is dedicated to my wife Nancy who enhanced my knowledge of jewels
past that of an engagement ring. She also inspired the rainbow in the last
scene.
Jewel Thief is not crippled in any way except that it can't sing. I figured
you didn't want the whole office to know you are not getting your work done.
Jewel Thief was originally written in Actor but I found people don't like to
downloaded 500K programs. I do like Actor for large projects.
For those of you who have made it to the castle scene, yes, I know that
"Gold" is not a jewel. I needed a 14th level to round out the game.
