DASH - a very speedily assembled boulderdash-puzzle-game for the
Allegro SpeedHack Competition 2001.


The object of the game is simple: remove all targets (red squares)
from the game by shooting them with your cannons. You can also shoot
sand and boulders to clear your way. Boulders will crush you if they
fall too fast.

The countdown timer is in the left top of the screen. You will gain
remaining seconds as score at the end of the level, or none of course
if you don't make it in time or get killed :-)

Controls:

arrow keys -> move man
mouse buttons (l, r) -> fire respective cannon


BUILDING INSTRUCTIONS:

the linux makefile (makefile.lin and makefile) should work without
adapting it. If not, let me know what's going wrong.

For dos, use makefile.dos

for msvc you'll have to make your own project file.

Have fun, let me know of any problems.

KNOWN BUGS:

the high score file can get messed up by strange characters in
names. If this happens, you can just edit highscore.dat to fix it.
