Objects and what they do
------------------------
Dalek-like creatures:These are enemy robot soldiers.Robots kill on contact,
and can shoot you and each other.These can be killed by shooting.

Red/Green blocks:These are dummy mines.They cannot kill anything, but if
shot or jumped on, they will explode.The explosion cannot kill you.

Pyramid shaped blocks:These are real mines,and cannot be shot.If fallen on,
walked into or jumped on,they will kill you.They can also kill robots.

Yellow blocks:These are sandbags, and will not harm you.They can be jumped
on, shot or pushed.

Red slates:These are magnetic blocks, and follow you.They cannot kill you,
and you cannot kill them.If they force you against a wall, and cannot escape,
you must press ESCAPE to restart.They are strong enough to push you, but
you are not strong enough to push back.

Sprite with clear top and yellow bottom:These are elevating platforms, and
will not harm you.However, they can be jumped on, and if you jump on the
right part, can be used as lifts.If walked into or shot, they will be
destroyed.If it is destroyed, there IS a way to get it back, but you must
find that out yourself.

Table shaped sprite with and without no entry signs:These are lifts, and
cannot harm you.They are indestructible.

Blocks with chevrons:These magnetic platforms, are indestructible, and cannot
harm you.If jumped on, they deliver you in the direction of the chevrons.

Other blocks:These all look similar, so I will group them together.One type
of block stays still, and the others move and can be jumped on.None of
these can be destroyed or destroy you.
