This is a novelty engine rendering in software mode, aka on your CPU.

|
It uses GTK/GDK functions, aside from that no dependencies are necessary.
|
|
|
|
|
For sound, please get the Open Sound System running (or wait until I'm done with the OpenAL backend)

|
|
|
- Main sound is done via OSS, not ALSA - aoss will most likely not work

You can get a particles.spr file for Q1 here: http://euksy.oldtimes-software.com/files/NGUNIX/particle.spr
