+Overview
+========
+
+This is a simple, retarded game I wrote for my high school senior project.
+
+I've compressed all the sources here because the resources (images and sounds)
+are uncomfortably large.
+
+The `Site/` directory also contains archives of the history of this program.
+(Back then I wasn't using version control, sadly.)

+ MP3s in the \MUSIC\ directory; fixed MP3 unloading/rewinding (10 hours)</p>
+<p>Welcome to the official home page for <i>Fartris</i>. Currently, the page is
+ very simple (but comprehensive). Check back during mid-June for a full-blown
+ site.</p>
+<p>For those of you who don't know (in which case I'm deathly afraid to imagine
+ how you ended up here), <i>Fartris </i>is a computer game that I began in late
+ 2000 for my high school's senior project. It's still a work in progress, but
+ I'm planning to go really deep with this program into various different areas
+ (2D art, 2D real-time rendering, polygonal structures, 3D art, 3D real-time
+ rendering, music composition, sound effects and synthesis, MP3 playback, video
+ playback) because it would prove to be a terrific exercise in any aspect I want
+ to cover. It's not going to be easy trying to do all of these, however, and
+ I'm often busy with other things, so you'll just have to put up with my slow
+ pace.</p>
+<p>The game is very simple (relative to most commercial games on the market today),
+ but it's not bad for a beginner at <i>Windows </i>programming (that's right,
+ never did and, now that I know what it's like, probably never will again).</p>
+<p>Here are some documents I wrote depicting the process I went through.</p>
+<ul>
+ <li><a href="primer.zip">Game Design Theories: A Primer:</a> this is the research
+ paper that accompanied the hands-on project.</li>
+ <li><a href="log.zip">Activity Log:</a> this walks the reader through the entire
+ construction process, up through the final GDI revisions. (After that, I realized
+ I was too hard-pressed on time to to keep a thorough log while developing
+ simultaneously, but I have maintained a DirectX updates history below.)</li>
+ <li><a href="reflection.zip">Reflection</a>: a reflective summary of the culmination
+ of my experiences with <i>Fartris</i>. </li>
+</ul>
+<p>Anyway, have fun with the game, I really hope you enjoy it, even if for just
+ a few seconds before you hurl. =P</p>

+<p align="right"><a href="#">Back to top</a></p>
+<h3><a name="info"></a>Information</h3>
+<p>OK, here's the basic premise of the game. You take control of one of two familiar
+ players (Terrance/Philip). You maneuver your player around the 8 horizontal
+ grids to catch the falling letters in a stack that sticks to the character,
+ but only in an order such that they spell "GAS", top-down, with as
+ many repetitions of A and S as you want (given that they're in order). If the
+ letters that are stacked up on you get out of order in any way, your collection
+ will "collapse"," leaving you to start over. Once you top off
+ your stack with a "G", you will have a complete spelling of "GAS",
+ which will then be added to your Gas Gauge.</p>
+<p>The Gas Gauge works as follows:</p>
+<p>"S" = +1 bar<br>
+ "A" = +2 bars<br>
+ "G" = multiply your total value of S's and A's by two</p>
+<p>This final value, doubled by the "G"-factor, is added to the Gauge.
+ Once this meter, which holds at most 50 bars, reaches 40 or above, you can press
+ the Release key to execute a fart, which in turn eliminates one of the spectators.
+ You'll be rewarded most if you can get the meter to exactly 50 bars, where Releasing
+ eliminates all of the spectators. If, however, you exceed 50, the game will
+ reset (you exploded). Releasing also deducts 30 from your meter.</p>
+<p>However, the tricky part (there's always a tricky part) is that each movement
+ you make to the left or right deducts one bar from your meter. So you get to
+ manage an economic system of time, points, and gas bars. I won't explain the
+ point system just yet 'cause I'm lazy and it isn't finalized, by it's kind of
+ a peripheral thing that you don't have to worry about.</p>
+<p>Here are the controls:</p>
+<p>ALL PLAYERS</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Pause: P</li>
+ <li>Exit: Esc (not working yet, but it breaks the game)</li>
+ <li> F1: help (not working yet)</li>
+ <li>F2: new 1-player game</li>
+ <li>F3: new 2-player game</li>
+ <li>F4: end game</li>
+</ul>
+<p>PLAYER 1</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Left: J</li>
+ <li> Right: L</li>
+ <li> Down: K</li>
+ <li> Release: Space</li>
+</ul>
+<p>PLAYER 2</p>
+<ul>
+ <li> Left: Left</li>
+ <li> Right: Right</li>
+ <li> Down: Down</li>
+ <li> Release: Insert</li>
+</ul>
+<p>It's pretty easy to get the hang of the game. Anyway, since you're all my beta-testers
+ (moohawhawhaw), I'd really appreciate it if you can report back with any bug
+ reports, etc. So it would actually be really great if you could invest the time
+ to bring this game to its knees (i.e. do the most unthinkable, random, unabiding
+ actions you can conceive to make the game crash or start acting weird or whatever).
+ Suggestions would also be nice, but please try to keep them reasonable, as this
+ project's due in a short amount of time (so none of that "Instead of falling
+ letters, make a game where you get to run, jump, and shoot at Pokemon!"
+ or whatever). One suggestion I'm dying for is what to replace these (boring)
+ letters with! Obviously, the most common thing that repeatedly comes up here
+ is food, but I've thought about it a lot and I can't seem to work it into this
+ design (for instance, it makes sense to arrange letters in order, but foods?).
+ Anyway the bottom line here is: please send me all your brilliant ideas!!!</p>
+<p>In its current stage of development, the game really isn't all too visually
+ appealing. Hopefully, once it's out of beta, it should work better. The reason
+ I first didn't make everything in DirectX (it uses Windows GDI currently, with
+ MFC-based windows, menu bars, etc.) is because I don't wanna screw up your systems.
+ So if anybody knows how to debug in full-screen capture, which is impossible
+ and if you know how you're a liar, please drop me a helpful line.</p>
+<p><b><font color="#FF0000">JUST ADDED:</font></b> Now that there's an internal
+ MP3 jukebox, feel free to put any of your favorite MP3s in the \MUSIC\ directory
+ for custom background music! This cuts down on size and adds to the ideal I'm
+ aiming this game toward: a software program that features everything but the
+ kitchen sink. Upon starting a new game, the program will randomly select a music
+ file to play, and once that one ends, it will randomly go on to another one.
+ The "AC, DC - TNT" theme MP3 must remain, however! That is the one
+ played at the title screen. <i>Winamp</i>, watch out!</p>
