[plt-scheme] A game in scheme
I have written a small game using Scheme and a graphics library called
Allegro( http://alleg.sf.net ). The game is a clone of an older game
called XQuest I wrote which is based on Atom Jack's XQuest which in turn
is based off of some old Mac game called Crystal Quest or something.

To play it you need Allegro( http://alleg.sf.net ) and mzscheme. On UNIX
install Allegro like so:
$ ./fix.sh unix && ./configure --disable-asm && make && make install
Then to play
$ mzscheme -f xquest.ss
The point of this isnt really to write a game but to show that its
possible to use a powerful graphics library from Scheme in an easy
manner, say for students to use.
Features of this game include:
* 2 levels
* horrible graphics
* no sound or music
* fun!
