href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tron_%28franchise%29#Light_cycles\" onclick=\"javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org']);\">Tron Light Cycles<\/a> where the player drives a light cycle in a battle area and attempts to trap the enemy using the light wall created by the light cycle itself.<\/p>\n<h1>Features:<\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li>3D engine written from scratch: no DirectX, no OpenGL.<\/li>\n<li>16 bit sound engine written from scratch.<\/li>\n<li>Six different light cycles, each with their different strengths and weaknesses.<\/li>\n<li>Upgrades for each light cycle.<\/li>\n<li>Adjustable difficulty AI.<\/li>\n<li>Four game types:\n<ul>\n<li>Deathmatch<\/li>\n<li>Team Deathmatch<\/li>\n<li>Capture the Flag<\/li>\n<li>Mutant<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Compatible with all Windows platforms (Win95 and above).<\/li>\n<li>Contains music composed by Jonathan Bruneau.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The game also includes all the editing tools required to create and modify light cycles and and light cycle upgrades.<\/p>\n<h1>Requirements:<\/h1>\n<h2>Minimum Requirements:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Windows 95<\/li>\n<li>64MB RAM<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Recommended Requirements:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Windows 98<\/li>\n<li>128MB RAM<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1>Revision History:<\/h1>\n<h2>Version 1.0.2<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Fixed the property 38 error by loading the resource in game memory without windows need to register font name in it&#8217;s database. At the end of the game, the font is unregistered, and hence a complete cleanup of font resources is available without dependency on Windows.<\/li>\n<li>AI game grid indexing errors were made occasionally, which made the game crash.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed the desktop appear between menu unload and game load. Now, default splash window is shown instead.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Version 1.0.1<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Fixed the Accept bug that occurred when changing the screen resolution. Doing so would corrupt the screen resolution file, hence preventing the game from properly working thereafter.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed the log bug that caused logs to stack on top one another when the log font size was &gt; 12.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Version 1.0.0<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Optimized redrawing mechanism:: gave a 65.8% optimization boost.<\/li>\n<li>Implemented double buffering on redraw without persistent bitmaps.<\/li>\n<li>Optimized HUD drawing:: removed deprecated code and optimized event log filling algorithm.<\/li>\n<li>Optimized Clear screen algorithm:: gave a 49.1% optimization boost.<\/li>\n<li>Optimized thread handling as to process threads only on certain conditions rather than always (actually faster).<\/li>\n<li>Added optional enhanced lights which add light sources to powerups. This enriches mesh lighting in the game grid at a performance cost.<\/li>\n<li>Added a prompt that appears on first game run which points new users to the instruction section.<\/li>\n<li>Readjusted the cycle statistics as to offer a wider range of purchasing power at the beginning of the game.<\/li>\n<li>Added moving lighting in the menu as a subtle touch of jazz.<\/li>\n<li>Slowed credits down so that people can actual read them.<\/li>\n<li>Redesigned unintuitive video options settings in Menu.<\/li>\n<li>Made menu object lines very thin: turns out to be nicer (less &#8220;greasy&#8221;).<\/li>\n<li>Slowed down final score board so that it is more visible.<\/li>\n<li>Completely hide the cursor on game play.<\/li>\n<li>Added version number of upper left of screen in menu.<\/li>\n<li>Changed default game score goal from 20 to 10.<\/li>\n<li>Removed unused game art (makes for smaller download).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Version 0.9.0<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Added mesh editing program: MeshEdit2.<\/li>\n<li>Added GUI interface for profile closure.<\/li>\n<li>Added profile redrawing and cancelation feature.<\/li>\n<li>Prevent a Sworm vehicle from gaining speed when turning given the right set of purchased upgrades.<\/li>\n<li>Prevent a Sworm vehicle from constantly accelerating given the right set of purchased upgrades.<\/li>\n<li>Ajusted upgrade prices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is Sworm 1.0.2 by Jonathan Bruneau.
