FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions )
Q: Is there an web version?
A: There used to be one I hosted online using GMBed Java until the server shut down.
Q: The game is too slow/lagging.
A: Press [F5] to toggle frame-skip mode. (v0.4 or later) This will skip several frames and speed up the game. Also, if any other program are running, save your data and close them. If you followed all of the steps above, looks like you're gonna invest a new computer.
Q: I can't tell which one is the player?!
A: Use player indicator, press [F6] to toggle indicator mode. (v0.4 or later)
Q: Can I use joypad?
A: Sorry, currently Highway Trouble is not supported joypad yet. But there's something sweet called Joy2Key(Google it).
Q: How I can save the game?
A: It saves by itself after completing a level. (v0.3 or later)
Q: Is there a Mac OS X version?
A: Yes. I am too lazy to post a download link but it's the link is in the download section of this website.
Q(sorta): Can you please make more enemies and levels?!
A: No, I do not plan to expand Highway Trouble anymore. But stay tuned for Highway Trouble 2!
