- "rot" is short for "rotation".
- This is a wolf3d-like demo that gets up to 20 frames
- per second, 32 colors, 288X150 resolution (kind of :)
-
- I'm releasing it "as is" with bugs. I'd like to see this
- develop into a PD game (see "rot.invite" file). But if
- there isn't enough interest to help me develop this further,
- I might never fix the bugs in it now. So I might as well
- release it.
-
-
- DISCLAIMER:
-
- Fast CPU required:
- It runs fine on a 68030, but probably won't look
- good on anything less. (Haven't tried it, though)
-
- Math chip required:
- This demo requires an FPU. (The 3000 and 4000 have
- one built in.)
-
- A4000 owners:
- Our copperlist won't work on the 4000 unless you
- disable the AGA stuff (I think) I did see the demo
- run on a 4000, and I know that you do need the cache,
- but I don't remember the exact option I turned off
- on bootup.

- Please spread this around, but include all files with it:
-
- rotdemo.txt -- this file
- rot.lzh <<
- rot -- the demo
- dungon -- dungeon file
- rot.invite -- invitation for you to join a team to
- develop this into a PD game.
- rot.description -- technical info
-
- Controls are:
- To run the program, simply put "rot" and "dungeon" in the same
- directory and type "rot".
- Mouse: Mouse pointer at center of view screen means stand still,
- moving the mouse to the left or right of the center of the
- screen turns you left and right. Moving the mouse above
- or below the center of the screen moves you forward and back.
- The further from the center you move the mouse, the faster you
- go.
- "y","Y": Auto-rotate clockwise, counter-clockwise.
- "q": quit
- 5=forward, 2=back
- 4=rot left, 6=rot right
- 1=step left 3=step right
- s=turn off overhead map (speeds up rendering a frame or two
