- Uploader: joar.berntsen@netcom.no
- Version: 1.2
- Type: misc/sci

- Replaces: -
- Distribution: everywhere.
-
- This is an optimized
- and changed version of Lifun.
-
- This release is for anyone
- who liked -misc/sci/Lifun
- but thought it was slow.
-
- after uploading it
- I will delete it from my HD
- because if I wanna continue the consept,
- I will do it from scratch,
- as the included BB2 source
- is not very well designed.
-
-
- changes since v1.0:
- -------------------
-
- Its ages since I modified Lifun,
- but I'll try to remember...
-
-
- +both ants and fleas are processed
- faster when they are many.
- Im not sure exactly how much faster,
- anything in 2-6x.
-
- -I decided to remove lasers,
- because lasers are not that fun...
-
- +...instead, the laser color register
- is used for an other effect,
- currently for nothing special,
- just a kind of forest/wegetation.
-
- +you can move all your white ants
- with arrow keys.
-
- +probably more.
-
- Description
- -----------
-
- -not a game.
- -bad graphics.
- -not any music.
- -lame sounds.
- -basic code.
- -badly drawn iff maps by me.
-
- is there any way this program
- is good you ask? ;)
-
- yes, if you:
-
- *are interested in ants.
- *find hopping flees, intriging.
- *like simulators of any kind.
- *enjoy to see a little pixel move about
- in a stupid and senseless pattern,
- through minefields, unluckily avoiding
- food, while watching his fellowers drown beside him,
- only to be killed by an enemy laser on
- the far side of the map. :) (I do!)
-
-
- docs inside.
-
-
- ----------------------------------
- note that there may be typos
- or false information in the doc.
-
- some maps are also outdated, but works.
-
- all this is because the development has
- gone slowly forward the last 6 years. ;)
