Notes
-----
This is a "test preview" version of the Dismount Levels game, i.e. the first
build for public testing. Creation of this game happened to start a bit
before the Assembly'2004 computer festival, so it seemed like a good idea to
push a public preview version of the game to contribute in the party. As the
name suggests, this version is still somewhat unfinished, so we're mainly
aiming to gather some feedback.
The Dismount Levels is mostly rewritten compared to the Stair and Truck
Dismount games, and it aims to be more of a framework for constructing
different levels or games with similar setting, than just one specific type
of small game. So the game has a built-in editor and scripting possibility.
The language and API for the script code is quite verbose, which makes it
quite powerful for different things, but also is a tradeoff from simplicity,
so making the script logic basically requires some understanding of code
with syntax similar to C, C++ or Java languages.
