ZENITH HUNTER version 1.007
by Michael Seaholm


STARTING THE GAME

Double-click on the Zenith Hunter shortcut in the "Zenith Hunter" directory to start the game. If this does not work for whatever reason, you can also start the game by going into the internal "data" directory and double-clicking the .exe file. Note that certain antivirus programs will run the game temporarily in a sandbox while it scans it, which usually takes around 15 seconds. If this happens, wait until the scan finishes and the game should restart automatically.


Zenith Hunter saves your progress at the start of each stage and supports up to three save files at a time. In addition, there are various options for setting up controls and screen settings based on your preferences. Both the save files and the settings data are kept under the directory C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Local\Zenith_Hunter and can be transferred if you wish to resume your game on another machine.
