AddTraction 0.001 - a small boardgame (C) 2004 by Andre Kloss
=============================================================

Welcome to AddTraction Version 0.001. This text will explain what the 
game is about and how you get it up and running. Also take a look at
COPYING if you have not yet seen the GPL and want to know what you are
permitted to do with this stuff besides playing.

The Game
--------
Two players ("red" and "green" take their turns on a 6x6 board. In the
beginning the board is empty except for a red "1" in the upper left and
a green "1" in the lower right.

Making a turn means setting one field of the board. Setting a field
makes it assume the sum of the points of the 8 surrounding fields, e. g.

 1  1  - 1  1  -
 2  *  - => 2  4  -
 -  -  - -  -  -

But there is a catch: If the field is of the opponent's color, their
score is subtracted rather than added. If the resulting score is
positive, the field will get your color, else your opponent's color.
The same happens to the global score, which is just a colored difference
of the score of all fields on the board.

If the score in the end is red, red wins. If it is green, green wins. If
it is black (0), it is a draw. Have fun!

Oh, and if you have enough of it before the game is over, just press 'q' 
or 'ESC', or you can just close the window. Else, if all fields are 
filled, the program will exit on the next mouse button oder key press.
