The Leland Corporation
El Cajon, California
The initial production run of OOAR'I'ERBl\CK
brought to light a few previously
unnoticed problems. These included:
* A one-player gane that was too easy.
* Loss of GaJne Set-Up and Player
Statistics due to improper exit from the
Diagnostics program.
* Possible
OOTE: The latest program revision includes
a few cosmetic audio and video
enhancements which will contribute to the
overall appeal of the gane.
'lYPE
bookkeeping errors.
Because of the quick action of operators
and their distributors in notifying us of
these symptoms, the problems were
irmnediately corrected and very few of the
faulty programs were released.
