Did it come with a read me? If so, check that, it should tell you how to run the program. Post back if you're still confused

Okay, I checked it out and downloaded it. It's a very large game, but seems nice. Try running just the demo. I havn't actually tried this myself, but it should work.

Oh, and the read-me says that certain lvls take up all your calc memory, so after you download one thing, suck as the 1st part of the movie, you won't have enough room for anything else. To me, I think you better go with the demo-if your calc even has enough mem for that . . .

Stardust is a Basic game and therefore you don't need a shell for it. You however MUST have a TI-83+/SE to run it due to its phenomenal size (for a TI-83 series game).

The readme tells me nothing except that I need a TI-83 to run it properly. I've got a TI-83/SE. What buttons do I press for it to run?
I've already archived it.

Alrgiht, hit the big blue button ccalled Apps. It's big,blue, and next to the program button. Hit the Apps button. Now, if you have MirageOS, it will come up. Scroll up or down to see it. Then, run MirageOS. To see your list of games hit 2nd. The list will come up. Then select the game by hitting second again. Have fun w/your new game. : )

I bet this answers about 50 other questions too.

It doesn't run on a shell. That means it ain't gone work with MirageOS. How do you run a game that has no shell?

Run it like any other program. How? Read the manual.

The manual says how to run applications not programs. So what do you do to play it. What buttons do I push to run it.

Okay, if it's got no shell, then go under programs and try to run it.

It says how to do that, too. It's self-explanatory: prgm = program (next to the blue one that says apps).
