 Jungle Rumble

+About the Game
+==============
+JungleRumble is GameTools demogame that was created by a small team (2 programmers and 1 artist) 
+of talented students at Vienna University of Technology, to showcase GameTools 
+Depth Imposters and Raytrace Effects.
+
+Depth Imposter solve the problem of conventional flat, semitransparent 
+decals intersecting with opaque scene geometry, which normally shatters their volumetric illusion; 
+
+Raytrace Effects employ actual raytracing on the GPU to give much improved quality for reflection 
+and refraction effects apllied to arbitrarily shaped geometry, especially if the 
+reflected/refracted objects are near the reflector/refractor. 
+
+Raytrace Effects are used for several (see "Raining..." level) - in some levels ("Surprise!") moving - objects. 
+Depth Imposter are used for explosions, lava-fire (see "Volcano" level) and for the 
+partcicle effects of the Flame- and Icethrower (press "4" and "5" to activate these), 
+combined with a heat blur.
+
+Jungle Rumble was started in the early phase of the GameTools Project, 
+and therefore uses its own Direct3D 9 engine (and not OGRE or Shark3D).
+
+The game starts in 800x600 window mode, using 512x512 textures for the Raytrace Effects cubemap. 
+You can easily change these settings in the "config.xml" file, residing in the same directory as this file.
+
+During the game, you can toggle Depth Imposters with conventional decal particle rendering with F9; 
+F10 toggles between Raytrace Effects reflection & refraction and conventional environment maps.
+
+Pressing F1 displays a help screen, where you can also see 
+whether Depth Imposters and Raytrace Effects are currently [ON] or [OFF], respectively.
+
+
+About the GameTools Project
+===========================
+The European Union GameTools Project is funded by the EU and produces 3D libaries 
+based on leading edge computer graphics research. 
+It makes these libraries available to European developers (or companies developing software within the EU)
+for free (including support) !
+All the companies have to do is joing the GTP Special Interest Group.
+To learn more about the GameTools Project and how to join, go to our webpage at http://www.gametools.org, 
+or contact the GTP Community Manager, Markus Giegl, at cm@gametools.org.
