I'm only posting this because I feel uneasy dropping a buggy project =\
-Added settings to change window dimensions (don't mess with it too much :p)
-Made teleport less 'sensitive'
-Fixed a bug involving spacebar as a replacement for middle click
NOTE:
I chose a window dimension of 800x600 because it was the best trade-off between FPS and window size.
When I change the window to a size greater than 800x600, I get a significant FPS drop.
This drop in FPS might not happen on every computer, but I wanted the game to be as universal as possible (within Turing limits)
Try not to change the size to 0, because I never added a check to stop that from happening.
If you do, however, change the size to something not preferred and the game acts up, delete settings.set from the data folder (and maybe state.set as well if that doesn't work).
I'm getting rather bored with this project so I hope I won't have to upload another version.
I've also submitted it to UoT's showCaSe, so I see no point in continuing.

An excellent project if I might say so.

Thanks man, appreciate it.
I'm fairly proud of how it turned out as well, and even though I probably will never have use of any algorithm I wrote for this project, it was fun writing/adapting them.

Oh hey man, cool stuff,
was wondering how you compiled the exes to have a custom icon as apposed to the turing icon.

Can some one make a tutorial about this?

Two things:
First: Finally gave you your karma.
Second: It's simple, right click on the .exe, and select properties. Then click change icon. Browse, select your picture. Easy.

Actually, there's already a tutorial made by tjmoore1993 on how to change the application icon here.
I use a similar method, and every method involves using a resource editor.

ResHack is a good tool for that.
