Marauder

Last updated on July 1, 1999, to work under Linux. Previously updated on June 21, 1999, to work with the 3.9.x Allegro WIP versions, and to compile under Windows using MSVC.

I wrote this game during 1994 as an experiment into the possibility of using genetic evolutionary algorithms to control enemy spaceships. That AI system didn't work, so I removed it, and this is what was left. Warning: some of the code is really ugly because it was written as part of a larger system and then hacked about into its current form, and I'm not at all proud of what remains.
