or download it from http://sdlbasic.sf.net

(attention: sdlbrt tarball above is only for i386 architecture (may work on amd64) - for other architectures please download from http://sdlbasic.sf.net, while sdlBasic is not yet in the Debian/Ubuntu repositories)
(attention: the files above are tarballs, assuming you're familiar installing from this format...)

i'm not sure if sudo cp /usr/bin/sdlBrt /usr/bin/sdlbrt is needed.

install on other operating systems:

about running this game on other operative systems beyond Linux:
· ReactOS (or ms-windows) - the game code needs patches
· MacOS-X, OS/2, BeOS, Darwin, ArOS, Irix, etc. - sdlBasic needs port
· GP2X, BSD, etc. - not tested yet

known issues:
· The game may behave slow on some relativelly old computers.
· MacBook keyboard (with Linux) is not for shmups - related to simultaneous key :-( .

All the game code was done completelly under the GPL licence.
