OS4 port info:

This game supports Joystick.
The source had various bugs , cleaned up.
The Source wanted "random" , nailed thoose one.
The Highscore table has an bug (if you press Enter on an empty line) , will
look
into that after i emailed the guy who made this game.
The game thinks green is black (alphachannel problem?) so i changed thoose base
colors to make the game playable (cheat) ;).

For Screenshots, look at the website/homepage of this game.

This was a pretty confusing port job , its been on my harddrive for weeks (it
was one of my first port attempts) and today i gave it a go and found out why
and what the reason was for the problems though there might be more of them so
if you find any please email me at tony.aksnes()broadpark.no .
