How to use this software
------------------------

PROTECTOR/Y*A*S*I was designed to run on the real Vectrex hardware.  For this
you will need either a VecRAM/VecFlash cartridge (from www.vectrex.biz) or some
other ROM simulator.

PROTECTOR/Y*A*S*I is also available on cartridge from: www.vectrexcarts.com
Cartridges include non-volatile memory to save high score, unlocked game modes,
etc.  This feature is disabled in this version.

Y*A*S*I includes speech when used in conjunction with a VocVoice speech module
(or VecVox in VecVoice emulation mode).  See www.vectrex.biz for more info.

Due to optimisations and other "tricks", these games do not run at all well in
current emulators.  Please note that the fault is with the emulation, not my
software.  I have taken no deliberate action to prevent these games from
running in emulators.
