It can be quit by pressing num '*' (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").
If you have problems with this installation please try and get a newer

that also fails, please inform the author via the Bug-Report-Form which

Notes:
- Ignore the system requester telling there's a checksum error during the installation.
- The J+K invincibility cheatmode has been replaced by J+I because the J+K key combination
is not possible on the A1200 keyboard (cheap hardware, 2 keys on the same line
cannot be pressed at the same time...)
- On WinUAE there are several issues: intro stars all aligned (first time), and hiscore position shifted. Also
disk appears as write protected.
