-------------------------------

"Hey, everybody, let's play ***Happy Fun Quake!***
Mommy said Quake wasn't nice, but she'll just LOVE this! 
See the funny clown? What's that he's got in his hands?
Why is he pointing it at me? BOINK! BOINK! Oh, dear, 
is that pretty red color my blood? He must be a nasty 
bad clown--maybe he'd like to see my new nailgun..."

The object of Happy Fun Quake is to collect as many 
happy smileys as you can. But first, you have to get
the clowns to give them up--which they only do when 
they fall down. (Hint: The double-barrell shotgun is 
a really nice way to get them to fall down.)
Watch out for the puppy doggies, though. They're VERY 
friendly... have you ever been licked to death? 
("Hey, Patches, quit sniffing me there ok?")

This is version 1.0 of Happy Fun Quake, which only
includes one level (called, you guessed it, "The Happy
Fun Place"). If it reminds you of a Slipgate Complex 
you once visited, you must be imagining things because 
it really doesn't look anything like it. If you go on
to other levels, they'll be just like the regular
Unhappy Fun Quake--unless those clowns somehow sneak
through that slipgate...

To install Happy Fun Quake:

  1. Make a directory (folder) within your Quake 
     directory. Why not call it "happy"?

  2. Use WinZip or some other Zip utility to put
     the pak0.pak file from the happy.zip archive
     into the happy directory.

  3. Put a NICE music CD in your drive. You know,
     Vince Gauraldi, Raffi, Greatest Instrumental 
     Hits of the 1890's, or something like that.

  4. Run Quake with the following command:
     quake -game happy +map e1m1

  5. Watch out for Mr. Clown's fun gun!

If you're really clever, you can use the models,
graphics, and sounds from Happy Fun Quake in your
own Quake levels. Just let me know when you do so I
can play with them too! ("Now Billy, SHARE that
gibbed clown-head with your big brother...")

Disclaimer #1: I don't think I did anything Id doesn't
want me to do when making Happy Fun Quake, but if I
did I'm sorry and I'll mend my evil ways! Just please
don't send in the lawyers!

Disclaimer #2: Happy Fun Quake is intended for mature
audiences only. (Well, okay, immature audiences trapped
in mature bodies.) Please don't screw up your kids for
life by letting them play with it.

p.s. This is version 1.2; the only difference from
version 1.0 is that clown heads are now left on the
floor when you gib the friendly fellows (these things 
matter to some people), and I squashed a weird bug 
that crashed my computer once in a while (I think).
