This is a very alpha version, with whatever was ready just before the deadline. Stay tuned for improved and optimized updates. This version needs at least a pentium3 to run well.

Eradicate attempts to auto-detect the installed sound card, and only asks the user for manual sound card configuration if the auto-detection fails. If for some reason your sound card is not detected correctly, or if you wish to change the current settings, start the game with the -setup option. You will only need to do this once; your choices are automatically saved, and will be used every time you start the game in the future.
The GNU/Linux and Windows versions support framebuffer scaling. Use the FBSCALE environment variable to set the scaling factor. For example: export FBSCALE=2 will result in 2x scaling. Also you can toggle between fullscreen and windowed modes with alt-enter.

The game comes with a few appropriate music tracks, downloaded from modarchive. Copyright belongs to their respective authors. You can drop your own music in the data/musgame and data/musmenu directories to add them to the game jukebox. The game will play files in random order from these directories. The files need to be tracked music in .xm, .mod, .s3m, or .it formats. See https://modarchive.org/ for a wide selection of compatible music files.
