	We would like to announce the first public distribution of
 		Netspace (version 1.3) as Shareware.  

Introduction:

	Netspace is designed to represent what we feel is the next era 
of computer gaming- networking.  The game uses the TCP/IP network protocol 
to allow up to eight seperate players to join together and interact within
the same gaming universe.  Netspace is an arcade style game.  It uses 
real-time graphics to simulate a three-dimensional space dogfight.  However,
instead of fighting computer-controlled ships whose creativity is limited 
by the programmed algorithms, you are battling against your friends.  Space 
consists of a cube that is a 3-D cubic torus (fly out one side and you come 
back through the opposite side.)  With you in the universe are a number of
moving asteroids and 8 ships. All ships which are not controlled by other 
players on the network are drone ships,  which move around randomly and do
not fire.

System Requirements:

	* Intel 80386 or higher MS-DOS based machine
	* Register compatible VGA card

    Optional:
	* Supported network card - for networking
	* MPU-401 compatible MIDI  interface and Roland CM-32L synthesizer
		- for sound effects and music soundtrack

Features:

	* 256 color graphics
	* smooth, 2-page buffered animations
	* TCP/IP networking of up to eight seperate computers
	* Roland CM-32L midi sound effects support
	* Multiple ship styles
	* Many game options

The game was written by:
	Steven Dollins   Chris Wilson   Jon Mittelhauser
              David Beckman & Quincey Koziol

We have placed it in wuarchive.wustl.edu in the /pub/MSDOS_UPLOADS directory

can update the file when we make our next release.
