I'm requesting a couple of spoilers for the Colony game: 1. I must be missing something fundamental: I always die once I leave the ship and battle the diamond-shaped things. I have the armored suit, usually set to light armor and weapons, but I run out of ammunition energy long before I find the colony itself. I'm always killed by the continuous barrage of fire from these things. Where's the colony? I've looked around the plane, and run all around the stupid plain where the ship is. I've even run so far in one direction that the screen put me back approaching my own ship. It gets really boring, since I always die trying to find the entrance. 2. What's the deal with the one room in the lower section of the ship with the alarm? The map of the lower level notes something funny about the entrance square to the room, but every time I go in there I die before I find anything of value. Is there anything to get? 3. Also, how do you take things with you? I tried to take the badge and instruction manual, but all I can do is move it around the screen. How do you actually keep things with you? Please email me directly, or post with due spoiler warnings. thanx in advance, bryan sabol
