ABOUT ===== This is the SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer) port of Tennix!, a game written by Thomas Perl in 2003. This version has been up- scaled to a resolution of 640x480 in comparison to the 320x200 format used in the original game. Changes from the original Tennix to the first SDL release include a new shadow, advanced alpha blending and the removal of the previously-included pseudo-advertisements. For all changes, please see the ChangeLog file. This port has been written on the 10th of May 2007 and is now being improved and updated since then. INSTALLATION ============ To build tennix, simply run "make" (on Unix-like systems) or follow the instructions for your platform in the README.* files. Tennix is known to build on Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 (etch), Win32 (mingw32) and Mac OS X 10.4 (using XCode tools). Binaries of Tennix can be found on the webpage. PLAYING TENNIX ============== You can play in either single-player or multi-player mode. For single player, Player 1 will play against the computer and for multi player, Player 1 will play against Player 2. CONTROLS Player 1 | Player 2 --------------------------- Move up W O Move down S L Swing racket D K --------------------------- See the manpage, tennix(6) for more controls (especially alternative keyboard controls and mouse control, which is new since 0.6.0). FUNCTION KEYS Y .... Make screenshot (save as screenshot.bmp) F .... Toggle fullscreen (X11 only) C .... Switch type of court (grass, clay, etc..) DEVELOPMENT/DEBUGGING ===================== If you want to compile a debugging version of "tennix", you have to set the environment variable "DEBUG" to "1", either by using "DEBUG=1 make" or exporting the environment variable for the current session, as in "export DEBUG=1" followed by "make".
