DESCRIPTION

Description from the author: 

Stroids3d started out as a 2d clone of the original asteroids. 
Since I have no life and just a horrible amount of time on my hands, 
it eventually became a full 3d space shooter.

HISTORY

v0.9b March 15th 2009: Compiled for OS4 by Sharakmir, Kjell Breding. 

PLAYING THE GAME

You control the ship with your mouse. For other in-game keys, see below: 

W = Forward
S = Backward
A = Left
D = Right
C = Camera View
G = Release/Grab Mouse
J = Show collision spheres
ESC = Return to Menu
KP9 = Kill 
GameKeyPad +/- = Change Game Speed

TODO/KNOWN BUGS

It's supposed to be possible to change screenmode in the game, but that crashes
the game so far. By default, the game starts in fullscreen mode (800x600x32)
which is the only screenmode that seems to work. Will look more into that later.
Since the game is in beta mode, it could be due to that (or to my limited
porting skills). ;)

Also, when the game has started up: I have not figured out if changing key 
definitions in "Controls" should work yet or not. Does not seem like it. 

Compiled on OS4.1, could hopefully work on OS4.0 also, but it has not been
tested.
