                THIS GAME IS REALLY COOL, IT'S AS CUTE AS AN NCURSES 
                BASED GAME GETS, AND IT'S REALLY AMBITIOUS. SO WE'VE
                GONE TO EXTRA LENGHTS WITH THIS PORT. A SIMPLE 
                RECOMPILE WASN'T ENOUGH. WE DECIDED TO ADD A 
                SOUNDTRACK TO THE GAME.
                RAINA/TITAN MADE A COVER OF THE CLASSIC PAC-MAN 
                THEME, AND HERE WE ARE, AN IMPROVED VERSION OF MYMAN 
                EXCLUSIVELY FOR AMIGAOS 4.0!
