== COMPILING ==

You will need the following tools and libraries to build the game:

* SCons
* GLFW
* IlmBase
* DevIL
* protobuf (You also need protobuf-compiler on ubuntu)
* SDL_mixer
* FTGL
* libsigc++

Just build the game with "scons" in the current directory. If you have
a dualcore CPU, you can use "scons -j2" for parallel building.

== PLAYING ==

To start the game, call "./Pony". ESC stops the game.


Controls:

Pony 1: Arrow Keys
Pony 2: WASD
Pony 3: 8456 on the Numpad
Pony 4: IJKL

F1 toggles music

Additionally you can use gamepads. Joystick 1 controls Pony 1, etc.
You steer the ponies with the left/right axis of the main stick and
accelerate/decelerate with Button 1 and 2. 

Many keyboards have problems with too many simultaneous keystrokes. If
you have problems with more than two players, you can attach an
additional USB keyboard or use Gamepads for some players.


== CONFIGURATION ==

You can configure a lot of things in the games config file
"pony.options".
You can supply an alternative config file as option in the "./Pony" call.

== INSTALLATION ==

Pink Pony can be started directly in the source directory. If you want to
install it in at a permanent location in the system, then you can use the
files in the 'install' directory for this.

The shell script 'pink-pony' is a simple wrapper that checks if a config file
is installed in the user's home directory and creates one if need be. It then
starts the game with this config file.

The location of the game resource files can be configured in the pony.options
config file. This way no patching of the source should be necessary.
