This is a video game for the IBM PC family of compatibles. It requires an EGA display, but that's about it. It was written on an AT class machine, so performance might be a little slow on a 4.77MHz PC, but I don't know. It WON'T work on CGA displays. The game was inspired by an arcade game of several years called "Tutankham", or something like that. In the process of the development, a number of changes and additions have been made. WARNING: the game is NOT finished. It is playable, but it is not what I would consider a finished game. The reason I'm making this release is that I haven't worked on the game for a couple of months, and MAY never get back to it. (On the other hand, I may. Who knows?) I'm including the sources, in case anyone gets the urge to do more work on it. Please, feel free to do so, but I'd appreciate getting copies of anything you do. This code is copyrighted by me, but I am giving permission to all sentient beings to modify and redistribute it under the following conditions: 1) Under no circumstances is it to be sold, or otherwise profitted from. 2) Copies of sources for any significant modifications are to be sent to me, electronically at: hplabs!hpcvlx!everett or by U.S. mail at: Everett Kaser 35405 Spruce St Albany, OR 97321 Home phone: (503) 928-5259 Work phone: (503) 750-3569 for possible inclusion in possible future releases (credit will, of course, be given to said sentient beings for said significant contributions). There are four parts, each of which needs to be uudecoded, to generate four seperate .ARC files. Then use ARC or PKXARC to un-archive the sources, executables, documents, etc. Then read the file SNARF.DOC which contains the above text plus much more.
