NOTICE: There have been a few users who've been unable to to get the game to run. If you have problems, leave a comment about it so hopefully we can figure out what the issue is.

Go get *10 second* places!

You are an alien stranded on earth. In order to leave, you must gather 10 pieces of silver. Conveniently, decathlon-like events are happening nearby; if you get 10 second places, you can obtain the 10 silver medals you require.

Alternate left/right quickly to move and generate speed/power.

Press space to jump/throw.

Press p to pause.

There's also a secret high-speed run ability, but you don't need it to win.

We got a bit overzealous in our idea and weren't able to finish everything we wanted or to polish things the way we would have liked, but we're fairly pleased with our result (well, more so pleased with some of the things we ended up teaching ourselves than with the game itself lol), but if you have Decathlon for the Atari 2600, then maybe you should just stick with that. This game has a few difficult parts (hurdles...*shudder*), but I tried to make all running events beatable in just a couple attempts; jumping/throwing events are a bit more picky because they won't take you as long to repeat. Good luck on that 1500m run!
