This version +supports X window system, SVGAlib for Linux and OS/2. It works in fine +(up to 900x620) resolution with cool 256 color graphics, multiplayer mode +up to 5 players, full sound and, of course, network support. Koules is +an original idea. First version of Koules was developed from scratch +by Jan Hubicka in July 1995. + +Yes, koules used to packaged on disk y1 of Slackware 3.3. It needed +quite a bit of patching to work well on a modern system... + +If you're building this for use on a slow system, try setting MITSHM=yes +in the environment; it may speed things up (or not). + +If you have Tcl/Tk installed, and you're running KDE, you'll get a nice +GUI launcher dialog when you run Koules from the K menu. If you're not +running KDE, try running "koules-launcher". + +Note: When playing as player #2 in multiplayer, the default keys are WASD, +not the arrows (this is confusing). Players 3 and above don't seem to +have default key maps, so be sure to configure the keys before starting +the game (or set the control type to mouse or joystick instead). |
