Sprite Sprint

Game description:

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

Title: "Sprite Sprint"

Platform: MSX 1

Authors: Rodrigo Gonzales (rodrivas78) / Flavio Martins Prado (praduca)

Game Instructions:

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

This is a car race game where time is at stake. In other words, the best 

score goes to whoever completes the course in the shortest time!

Control the acceleration and avoid leaving the track (or even touching 

the edges!) as this will cause your car to run aground and thus,

 lose speed. If this happens, don't despair! Just keep accelerating (in 

the opposite direction of grass) until the car is free of mud!

Controls:

---------

Keyboard:

  - ARROWS (LEFT and RIGHT): steering wheel

  - SPACEBAR (ACCELERATOR): gas pedal
