History:

v0.7    Added some basic AI. Removed the (non-working) menu.

v0.6.1  Fixed collition between ships. Optimized code again.
v0.6    Added intro and a B movie-style background story =) Removed star count selection. It wasn't working anyway...

v0.5.2  New sounds.
v0.5.1  Added pause function.
v0.5    I have added new objects, but the size of the game is reduced, thanks to some optimizations. You can now choose your resolution. (I don't recommend the 1280x1024 resolution...) I've also changed most of the graphics, using the excellent SpriteLib by Ari Feldman. The aliens still behave a little weird, though...I added some music, too.

v0.4.1  I'm trying to make a resolution option...and I fucked up again. The aliens show up in weird places...
v0.4    Fixed the fps-counter...FINALLY! Changed the game over-screen.

v0.3.1.1 Fucked up bigtime! Tried to make the "How many stars do you want"-section fancier. Now, it doesn't work.
v0.3.1  Added more sounds and fade effects.
v0.3    Added music. (I thought this was an important stage in development.) Changed name to Space Force!

v0.2.3  Started working on the intro screen. (I have a very basic one). Added screenshot function. Turbo with 'F'.
v0.2.2  Made two new fonts. Found working title (Space Wars). Translated to english.
v0.2.1  Sound is working again...
v0.2    Aliens fight back. Tweaking of game logic. Sound stopped working(?)

v0.1    Collitions are working. Random functions are working. SFX up and running.          Everything is fine, really!

To do:
- Meny (MIA, I think. I think I have given up on this one)
- Explosions
- Music (In production)
- New Intro&outro
- Highscorelist (working on it...)
