- Still under construction. Don't distribute.
+ It's been nearly a year since the first version of Nemesis, and over one
+half year since my last version. So I figured it's about time to complete
+this game. I won't bother you with the endless list of improvements I made;
+just go ahead and play the game!
>>>>>>> INTRO TO NEMESIS -----------------------------------------------------
Nemesis is an old arcade-game for many platforms, originally for arcades.
I first played Nemesis III for the MSX (1988), but Konami made at least
-* 41 * Nemesis-games (mostly named Nemesis, Gradius, Salamander, Parodius)
+41 Nemesis-games (named Nemesis=Gradius, Salamander=LifeForce, Parodius)
for systems including the Game Boy, (S)NES and Play Station.

>>>>>>> BETA STUFF -----------------------------------------------------------
- There are just seven levels for now, don't try to get to level eight.
-Things to come:
-
-* save options (like b<>w)
-* more LEVELS!! more enemies more upgrades more story
-* maybe obstacles?
-* source code release
-? grayscale, sounds, multiplayer-option: probably not
+ There are just five levels for now, don't play beyond there. In future
+versions I'll add more levels and enemies, maybe obstacles, and I'll release
+the source code. I don't think I will add greyscale, sound or a multiplayer
+option.
