38 This is the SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) port of Tennix!, a
39 game written by Thomas Perl in 2003. This version has been up-
40 scaled to a resolution of 640x480 in comparison to the 220x200
41 format used in the original game.
43 Apart from the graphics and appearance, the gameplay has also
44 been re-written so that the game doesn't resemble a ping-pong-
45 like game (as before), but a rather interesting form of tennis.
47 This also includes a shadow, advanced alpha blending and the
48 removal of the previously-included pseudo-advertisements.
50 This port has been written on the 10th of May 2007 and has been
51 improved and updated up till the 23rd of May of the same year.
57 To build tennix, simply run "make" (on Unix-like systems) or
58 follow the instructions for your platform in the README.* files.
60 Tennix is known to build on Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 (etch),
61 Win32 (mingw32) and Mac OS X 10.4 (using XCode tools).
63 Binaries of Tennix can be found on the webpage.
