KEYED-UP!›BY RAYMOND CITAK››AUGUST 1988 ANTIC SUPER DISK BONUS›› Keyed-Up! is a music education›game that teaches the relationship›between sounds and key signatures›(sharps or flats at the start of a›composition) of various major and›minor musical scales in the treble›clef.››XXX›› On the first screen you will see›several options available. Use the›[OPTION] and [SELECT] keys to set the›game level from 1 (easy) to 3›(difficult). You can select major›keys only, minor keys only, or both.›A HELP screen, which you can switch›on or off with the joystick button,›explains the scoring and shows the›key signatures for the scales. Press›[START] when you are ready to play.›Anytime you want to return to the›title screen, press either [RESET] or›[START].››XXX›› The game screen shows a fence›along a highway. There are five›strands of wire on the fence -- like›the five lines of the musical staff.›Between each fence post is a key›signature. There are seven sections›with one to seven sharps, seven›sections with one to seven flats, and›one blank section with no sharps or›flats. A bird appears in flight›above the fence and a letter›(indicating the first note in the›scale) appears at the lower center›part of the screen.››XXX›› Using the joystick, land the bird›on the section of fence that shows›the correct key signature for the›scale and note indicated.›› If you land correctly, you gain›points and a new scale will be›played. If you land on the wrong›section of fence, watch the birdie --›the fence is electrified! Play›continues for three minutes.››XXX›› You will have to listen carefully›to the scale being played to see if›you can tell the difference between›the major and natural minor scales.›Beginners should first play the major›option, then the minor, to accustom›their ears to the difference. (The›third note of the scale is the best›one to listen for.)››XXX›› To play, copy KEYEDUP.EXE to a›disk which has been formatted with›DOS 2 or 2.5. (Make sure the DOS.SYS›file is on the disk, too!) Rename›this copy of KEYEDUP.EXE to›AUTORUN.SYS. Finally, turn off your›Atari, make sure your KEYEDUP disk is›in drive one, remove all cartridges›(XL/XE owners should press [OPTION] )›and turn on your Atari. KEYED-UP›will load and run automatically.›
