========= Description ==============

Glaxium is an OpenGL-based space-ship "shoot-em-up" styled game. 
It is designed to provide the same feel as the old 2D games 
of that type, but with 3D for the special effects.

Glaxium is under GPL and is free.

========= Requirement ==========

Hardware:
You'll  need  a 3D  accelerator and opengl working.
If you see 'Microsoft openGl' in the first log lines, 
you can give up !!!

Libraries :
Since v0.3 Glaxium requires SDL  for fullscreen, and to manage 
the joystick.
If  you  want sound you'll need SDL_mixer.

 openGL/mesa3d <http://mesa3d.sourceforge.net/>
 SDL : <http://www.libsdl.org>
 SDL_mixer : somewhere in <http://www.libsdl.org>
 libpng <http://www.cdrom.com/pub/png/>

========= How to play ===========
Destroy every-thing and especially the dark boxes that may
contain interesting things like POWER-UP.

Type './configure', 'make' and './glaxium' 
or './glaxium -f' for fullscreen...

Keys :
	4 arrows to move - or a good joystick
	<Left CTRL>, 'w' or 'z' to fire
	<SPACE> or'x' for the special weapon
	'p' to pause
	<Esc> to quit
