Upnumbered the version from 0.20 to 0.30 to reflect the large amount of new content

There are numerous additions and changes in all areas of the game:

- About 20 new sounds added, for a total of approximately 37

- Several new textures added

- Player ship looks like the allied computer ships, but is distinguished by the UVic crest on the wings of the human-powered ship

- Theme music added (toggle with the "M" key)

- New objects: prisoners, enemy gold stashes

- Zoom effect when traveling from one level to the next

- Scoring revamped

- Bonus point algorithm - points depend on the success of your "save the prisoners" mission

- Lots of bug fixes

I've done a major update from v0.19 to v0.20.

It was a LOT of work but I think the game will be a lot more fun because of it.

The storyline has been completely revamped - instead of simply killing the enemy ships to complete a level, you have to rescue allied prisoners who are encased in the asteroids. The cube is a huge space prison, and your job is an ongoing rescue mission.

I'll have a more detailed update soon, as well as some new screenshots.

Changes from v0.18 to v0.19:

- Texture-mapped skins for player and allied ships

- Enemy ships are bigger (makes them easier to hit)

- Increased arena size; new arena has more than twice the cubic footage

- Energy cube increases your energy more than twice as much

- Color of enemy shots is now orange

- Allied lasers now have a different sound

- Increased number of powerups per level

- Fixed bug with preferences file possibly causing a crash

- Fixed bug where some sounds might get prematurely chopped

Version 0.18 Additions / Improvements:

- Sent this version to eight playtesters.

- Two new powerups added, as well as a revamped splash screen.

- Energy Cube powerup: hatches from small gold asteroids. Adds to player's health (Or to an enemy's health if they grab it first). Can be shot, or destroyed in a collision.

- Gravity Well powerup: hatches from small gold asteroids, immediately falls straight to the -z wall. Upon impact with the wall it explodes and creates a temporary gravity field towards the -z wall. While plummeting to the floor, the Gravity Well is fatal to anything that touches it. But it can be shot, for big points.

- The Allied Ships are now a yellow color.

- The holodeck is now green and has a CR logo on the walls.

- Lots of files added. There are now approximately 12 .c files, all with accompanying .h files.

- Lots of new sounds added. They are all public domain sounds culled from the Internet.
