BloodShed is a game project that I'm working on at the moment. It's a 3D
Mech battle game with randomly generated playing environments - Over 4
billion different levels!

Right now, it's still very sparse - instead of a mech you are a cube,
and only verticle colision detection has been implemented. But it does
have split screen 2 player, and a randomly genreated level for you to
hop around in!

Grab it here.

Full source is included, and it's pretty heavily commented. If you want
to recompile, read the readme.txt file.

Just download it and tell me what you think. If you are using a normal
controler, Triangle jumps. If you are using an analog controler, the
control scheme is like a tank. To jump, move the sticks away from each
other.

To switch to split screen mode, press square and vice versa. Split mode
is kinda buggy though - it locks up often!

It takes a while for it to get everything set up, so watch the computer
screen to see it's startup progress. It uses ANSI codes for color
debugging output. 

Because it dumps so much for debugging, you probably won't have much
luck trying to get it to work using pscommutil. You can turn off the
debugging output by editing MAIN.H and uncommenting the verbrose mode
macro and then recompiling.

Have fun!
