The manual that nobody asked for.

Nobody asked for it.

It doesn't really add anything new.

But i thought it would be cool to design a new manual inspired by the old IBM Personal Computer manuals of the early 80's.

I am open to suggestions of where to take it. I was thinking of (possibly unnecessarily) expanding some of the sections. Basically, i am wondering what a physical edition of the game might look like. Something that didn't look like a retail game and that might exist in the world of Duskers.

:) only because i wanted to print and saddle stich it. So the pages had to be in mulitples of 4. I guess there is no reason to have them in the digital copy.

Pages 2 and 3 are the wrong way round (minor annoyance) and on page 22 there's a typo where it says using the 'shift + down' key pages up in the command window when it should say that it pages down. Other than these two very minor things this guide may aswell be the official guide of Duskers, it really captures the feel of the analogue age and the kind of universe the game was aiming for (to me it's a very Ridley Scot's 'Alien' universe) and this guide nails both explaining game commands and the aesthetic. Well done!
