+Hello, and welcome to the Freedroid page.
+
+THE CLASSICAL FREEDROID: Freedroid is a clone of the classic game
+"Paradroid" on Commodore 64 with some improvements and extensions to
+the classic version. 
+
+In this game, you control a robot, depicted by a small white ball with
+a few numbers within an interstellar spaceship consisting of several
+decks connected by elevators. 
+
+The aim of the game is to destroy all enemy robots, depicted by small
+black balls with a few numbers, by either shooting them or seizing
+control over them by creating connections in a short subgame of
+electric circuits. 
+
+Development of this game is now complete.  The final version came out
+in august 2003 and runs on Linux, Mac OSX, Sharp Zaurus and even that
+strange Windows wannabe of an operating system.  Thanks to all who 
+helped.
+Minor fixes and maintainance will of course still continue though...
+
+FREEDROID RPG:  The Freedroid RPG is an extension/modification of the
+classical freedroid engine into an RPG.  The main differences to the
+classical version are as follows: 
+* The Tux is the main character of the rpg.  He is not displayed as a
+   ball like in Freedroid but rather as an animated character, while
+   other droids and humans in the game are still represented as the balls
+   with some number or code in them. 
+* Dialogs and chatting with friendly droids and humans:
+   Multiple-choice menus and voice samples (with subtitles for those
+   without sound). 
+* Melee weapons, armour and other items to be equipped have been
+   added. 
+* An automap feature was added.
+* Saving and loading of games.
+* A shop to trade things.
+* Controls are different:  Mouse can be used to do everything.
+   Joystick is not supported for moving around any more. 
+* The archive size (including sound samples) is about 10 times as big
+   as for the classical version.  I'd like to appologize to all 56K modem
+   owners at this point.
