== Description: ==
This project aims to be a open source game engine specialized in (but not
limited to) 2D fighting games in the likes of Street Fighter, King of Fighter,
Samurai Showdown, etc.

It'll also be a educational tool for hobby game programmers, in particular,
and any other student in the areas that involve game development in general,
like designers, artists, storytellers, etc. Although support for a less
"programmer oriented engine" will come latter in the form of supporting
graphical tools and scripts.

For now, it is composed of two parts, the game engine itself (that is called
simple ArcadeFighter and referenced as "the library") and a companion demo
(the ArcadeFighter Demo) that is meant as a testing platform for the library
capabilities, a tutorial for how to use the library and a simple (but complete
and customizable) fighting game.

The project is currently implemented using only C/C++ and has a small set of
dependencies of external libraries, mainly related to OpenGl particularities.
