(About the author)
 
     So, orginally I was planning on fleshing this thing out into a fully functional network racing game where you would drive a little buggy around, equipped with nerf cannons, trying to gather little purple spheres and boxes. The basic premise is kind of surreal, but I figured it would be kind of neat because the entire game uses the ODE (Open Dynamics Engine) library for realistic game physics. That kind of fizzled out when school started, and now if I were going to go back to it, I would complete rewrite it anyway, but I figured someone out there might find it useful, since there are very very few game-related physics sim demos online.

It looks like a cool game. But I can't compile it because I don't have the header files :(. Could you e-mail me them? My e-mail address is BlakkSyn@hotmail.com. Thanks =).
