+# FreeDMC
+
+## To-do list:
+
+- Powerups are implemented, but don't function.
+- Damage calculation is not done how DMC/Quake would, so rocket jumps are fatal most of the time.
+- ambient_drip entity implementation is missing.
+- All official maps need waypoints.
+- Lots of inaccuracies, as this isn't based on any existing code.
+
+## Overview
+
+This is a port of Deathmatch Classic to FreeHL/Nuclide.
+
+It's basically just QuakeWorld deathmatch, but with a splash of Half-Life. This means that sprays and all that stuff work. Even crouching works in this particular version for the time being.
+
+There's a small compat layer so you can play on existing HL:DM maps without ent hacks.
