WHAT IS CROSSFIRE?
This is a multiplayer graphical arcade game made for the X-Windows
environment.
It has certain flavours from other games, especially Gauntlet (TM)
and Nethack/UMoria/Ularn/Omega.
Any number of players can move around in their own window, finding
and using items and battle monsters. They can choose to cooperate
or compete in the same "world".
REQUIREMENTS
You will need UNIX, X-windows and an ANSI C compiler to compile this game.
Where to find the source:
Archive: ftp.ifi.uio.no
Directory: /pub/crossfire
File: crossfire0.8.tar.Z

Unfortunately I'll be away until the middle of August, so I'll be unable
to answer any questions until then. In the meanwhile, requests to join
the crossfire mailing-list goes to kjet...@ifi.uio.no. If you have
problems compiling or playing the game, maybe someone on the mailing list
can help you out.
I'm still looking for co-developers...
*Any* ideas, suggestions, code, maps and/or graphics are welcome.
