AMIGA DISCLAIMER:

THE 3D SUPPORT ON OS4 PLATFORMS IS IN A KINDA WACKY STATE AT THE MOMENT. 
TO ENJOY THIS GAME FULLY I RECOMMEND AN AMIGAONE.
BUT NOT EVEN ON AN AMIGAONE IS IT REALLY ENJOYABLE, AS IT RUNS SLOW.
                          
ON PEGASOS2 HARDWARE I GET SOME BEEPS IN THE AUDIO. 
THIS IS A BUG IN MINIGL.

ON SAM'S YOU WILL PROBABLY GET A GREEN SCREEN. 
THIS IS A BUG IN MINIGL OR OS4.

OH, AND DON'T CHANGE TO WINDOW MODE, THE GAME WILL CRASH. SDL/GL DON'T PLAY
NICELY TOGETHER UNDER OS4.

I AM CHUCKING THIS OUT TO GET RID OF IT FROM MY HD, WHAT WE NEED IS
BETTER 3D SUPPORT, I WON'T PORT ANY NEW 3D GAMES WITH THE CURRENT STATE
OF THE DRIVERS.

I AM NOT BITTER, BUT SADLY THIS IS THE CURRENT STATE OF THINGS. CHIN UP THOUGH.
THE GREEN SCREEN ISSUES ON THE SAM IS PROBABLY ALREADY FIXED IN THE INTERNAL
BETAS, XERON IS WORKING ON SDL, AND THE 3D SUPPORT WILL GET A COMPLETE 
OVERHAUL IN THE FUTURE. 

I GOT SOME SUPPORT QUERIES, SO I CLEANED UP THE SOURCES, AND MADE A STATIC
BUILD. THIS MEANS IT'S NOW COMPILED WITH THE LATEST MINIGL AND THE LATEST SDK,
AND DOESN'T NEED ANY SHARED LIBS. CLICK AND GO! PLUG AND PLAY! DOUBLE THE
TROUBLE! TWICE THE FUN!

Critical Mass (aka Critter)
 

Your world has been infested by an aggressive army of space critters. Overrun
and unprepared, your government was unable to defend its precious resources. 
As a last effort to recapture some of the 'goodies', you have been placed into 
a tiny spacecraft and sent after them. Critical Mass (aka Critter) is a 
shoot'em up (smup) similar to Galaxian. The basic idea is simple: you move your 
ship back and forth at the bottom of the screen, shooting up, while bad guys fly
around and shoot at you.


Keyboard/Mouse Controls:

SPACE or MB1 - Primary Fire
LALT or  MB2 - Secondary Fire 
LCTRL or MB3 -¿Fire or Bark! 
ESCAPE       - Cancel
TAB          - Show/Hide CritterBoard
F12          - Snapshot
P            - Pause

To control the ship use the mouse or the arrow keys.
