 Description: A 3d network deathmatch game
- Nexuiz is a 3d deathmatch game made entirely over the internet. The purpose of
- the game is to bring deathmatch back to the basics, with perfect weapon
- balancing and fast paced action, keeping itself away from the current trend of
- realistic shooters.
+Description: 3d deathmatch game based on quake1 engine
+ Nexuiz is a 3d deathmatch game based on the popular quake1 engine
+ Darkplaces. When id software releasd the quake1 engine under the GPL,
+ many engine projects formed. Darkplaces is the most advanced quake1
+ engine that is compatible with the original but supports many
+ improvements.
  .
- Though this is a network-game it is also possible to play in single player 
- mode against computer-controlled enemies.
+ Nexuiz takes this engine and adds GPLed game data. This makes it one
+ of the only free software games using a modified id software engine.
+ The action is fast paced as you would expect from a quake1 based game.
+ The weapons and levels are all different because they had to be
+ recreated from scratch. Nexuiz uses a space environment instead of
+ the gothic quake environment.
  .
- To play the game with all its graphic effects, you need a very fast and recent
- OpenGL capable graphics board. You can also play the game with older hardware, 
- but with very low graphics settings.
+ To place the game with all its graphics settings, you need a fast
+ computer and recent OpenGL capable graphics card. This is not the
+ same engine that id software used in 1996. Darkplaces many
+ enhancements means this won't run on older hardware that could run
+ quake1 fine.

  This package contains the game client.
