History

Whole game remade from scratch.
Recommended system specs
========================
OpenGL is required! The game uses SDL for window and image handling,
and FMOD by Firelight Technologies for audio.
Fast CPU (at least 1GHz) is highly recommended, mostly because of very
slow and unoptimized physics engine. Also a fast graphics-card is
recommended, but this game is mostly CPU-expensive.
Windows
=======
All necessary libraries are included in the package. Just launch
BlockoFighter.exe
Linux
=====
SDL and FMOD must be installed in order for this game to compile
and work.
SDL and SDL_Image are located at http://www.libsdl.org/, but are also
available for example via apt-get in Linux Debian:
apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
apt-get install libsdl-image1.2-dev
FMOD is located at http://www.fmod.org/
After installing libraries, just use "make" -command to build the game,
and enjoy the game by launching blockofighter -executable.
This game was created in Windows-environment, and we were not able
to test it in Linux enough, but at least it worked with me :)

Known issues
============
- Blockomen might sometimes get stuck in each others
- In some Linux-environment screen was left blank while game
was still running fine. We are working on this.
- There has been reports about blockomen not getting damage at all
when launching Blockofighter for the first time, though this has not
been verified. If this happens, try launching the game again.

Special thanks to Osmand, who made two songs for us.
Thanks goes also to Forge for creating some of our sound effects.
Since this is made for Assembly demoparty, some greets are necessary:
