LogoP is a plug-in to the Platypus Collection. It requires Hypercard 2.1
or Player (or higher), 4 Megabytes or more of of RAM and a color Mac. It
has been extensively tested on system 7.1, and has been run through system
6.0.8. IT ALSO REQUIRES a shared resource stack called PLATYPUS COMMON,
available at the same sources as this file.


LogoP(uzzle) v3.5 ©1993-1995 by Platypus Software is a cerebral challenge
where your job is to arrange nine attractive tiles so that colors and
designs of adjacent pieces match. You do it by rotating tiles and by
swapping any two tiles' positions. You can choose any of eight different
graphics for your puzzle. LogoP has been substantially overhauled since
the last release. The look has been jazzed up with AddColor, new tools
have been added, yet more new designs have been added, ColorCover hides the
desktop (for HC 2.1 and above) and the custom colors screen is improved.
The last version did not get along very well with other stacks. This one
has much better manners. Shareware $5.00 fee entitles you to all future
shareware upgrades and any new graphics that we make.

Requires a color/greyscale Macintosh and HyperCard 2.0+ or player. (There
is an old freeware version for black and white.) Now that it is a color
stack, you have to crank up the memory on your Hypercard app before you run
it. All color stacks require this and there are getting to be more and more
of them. To do this:
1. SINGLE CLICK the icon for your Hypercard or Player App. NOT THE LogoP icon!
2. Do a Get Info from the Finder.
3. Set the minimum and preferred memory to at least 1500K. Try it, if you
still can't see color on the splash screen, crank it up higher.
