This game is a hobby of mine to hack upon when I have idle time. The head of the source will usually compile, but not all features of the game might be working. When I feel that a real feature set of the game is working and playable, I'll tag it as a release.

The internals of the game is moderately complex. This is because I have a list of features I want to add that have complex intersection in the code. I'll eventually get them out of my notebook and into a TODO file here. Currently, I'm working more on the engine and sumulationist aspects of the engine as opposed to the game mechanics themselves. Once I get enough pieces that I think a lot of fun can be had, I will inflate the game with content and actual game mechanics.

If people find it interesting to hack in here, I'll glady accept patches and such.

Thank you.
