Current version 140309

by fbman
------------------------------------------------
Allegro 5.0.10

Inspiration from an old Atari game early 80's.

Arrow right: Turn right
Arrow left : Turn left
Arrow down : Reverse
Arrow up   : Forward
Space      : Shoot

ESC        : Quit

Player tank is black, enemy tank is red.

Time between computer fire will decrease as you
get more points.

Computer tank is a bit slower than player tank.

Five levels, fifth level will continue until 
game is aborted.

See also https://www.allegro.cc/depot/Tanks for
sourcecode.
