It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").
Note: This install cannot be used with the game (extended ADF) image provided

History:
--------
version 1.5 (16.08.2019) done by JOTD:
- added option to force 2nd button = jump (CUSTOM2=1 as always)
- added joypad controls for pause, give up current game, quit to wb & levelskip.
- shuffled the CUSTOMx flags to respect my personal logic (custom1=trainer,
custom2=2nd button jumps, customx: other)

version 1.4 (06.03.17) done by JOTD

Cheats/Hints
------------
Jump up and turn on the autofire on your joystick. You'll glide through
the air while spinning madly. This should help you dodge all the dinosaurs
and volcanoes.
Select 'OPTIONS' from the title screen. On the option screen, use and
enter the following sequence: UP UP DOWN DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT.
Now start the game and infinite lives are yours.
Note that if you enable levelskip or infinite lives trainer, highscores
won't be saved.

If you have problems with this installation please try and get a newer
version of this package from the WHDLoad WWW-Page. If that doesn't help try
some Tooltypes like NOCACHE, NOAUTOVEC, EXPCHIP, NOMMU, PAL or NTSC. If
that also fails, please inform the author via the Bug-Report-Form which
can be accessed on the WHDLoad WWW-Page.
For the full WHDLoad package, other installs and updates refer to:

and aminet:game/patch/
There's an access fault on "continue play" on WinUAE if "more compatible" isn't checked
I (JOTD) haven't fixed this as it was non-trivial and probably winuae only.
