------------
Still to come
------------

- Chaos game mode (still busy with it, a few specials are in place)
- Trigame game mode (not sure if it will be implemented)
- Highscores for each game mode
- Animated backgrounds (don't know sure yet)
- wave support for ingame sounds


------------
Known bugs
------------

- sometimes there is a rare black line in the upperscreen
- game crashes sometimes when you are just playing with nothing special (still searching for this fix)


Also RJ McCormack has made an alternative pack for the menu of boxyII if you don't like the one i made and he has also made 4 nice themes that can be installed along with them

if you want to install those themes along with the ones already present then you have to make the directories in sequential numbering so they will be 8, 9, 10 and 11 as directory in the themes directory. The pack is available as attachment

greets Ghoti


EDIT :: forgot to tell how the mp3 works press R to go to the next mp3, no other controls work as of now yet but there will be changes in the next version as well as an option to disable sound and sounds effects of playing

again greets Ghoti
