What do I do after downloading?
This executable was compiled under Irix 5.2 but seems to run fine under Irix 5.3 and 6.0, and even 6.2 beta on an Infinite Reality engine. It has been tested on Personal Iris, Indy, Indigo, Indigo2 and Onyx machines and should run fine on any Silicon Graphics machine with a hardware or software z-buffer. It takes up about 5 megabytes of disc space when uncompressed and untarred. The help files are in Showcase, and a small man page is included. The program will take advantage of audio-out and stereo display (get those CrystalEyes glasses out of the box!) but does not require either.
This executable does not require root access to install, but it also doesn't come with the desktop icons. This is the same version that I submitted to the 3rd Indizone game contest, meaning that it is slightly different from the version that appeared on the CD-ROM - so this is the "programmer's cut" of the game.
Obvious disclaimer: This software is provided 'as is' without any warrenty whatsoever. Googelon. Flutter, Techs, the Vapour, and I disclaim any bad things that may happen to you, your loved ones, your co-workers, your pets, your social life, or your electronic equipment as the result of downloading and playing this game ... so if you go on a shooting rampage at a fast-food restaurant please don't blame me.
