+Summerhack / The Lab
+====================
+Summerhack was a short and sweet demo I've written during the summer of 2005
+for a random on-line competition. Mainly it was a showcase of the 3D engine I
+was writing back then with the help of Michael Georgoulopoulos, and which was
+hosted at: http://engfx3d.berlios.de (which has since gone off-line, see
+archived: https://web.archive.org/web/20060210131739/http://engfx3d.berlios.de )

+Credits
+-------
+ - Demo code: John Tsiombikas (Nuclear)
+ - 3D engine code: John Tsiombikas (Nuclear) and Michael Georgoulopoulos (Samurai)
+ - Sound code: Vasilis Vasaitis (Savvy)
+ - Music: Giannis Troumpadakis
+
+
+Issues
+------
+Depends on some unspecified version of 3dengfx, which is currently hard to
+get, build, and install prior to building this demo. I think it would be best to
+pull all the pieces together into this repository at some point.
