Havok

I found out a little while ago that the Havok Physics Engine is available for free download and use for non-commercial games. Which is excellent, so I downloaded a copy for myself and was starting reading the included documentation. I'll tell you, it's impressive. So, expect some updates about me working with it.

As for Asteroids, my progress has been halted by a baffling inability to get the SDL addons to work, namely SDL Mixer and SDL TTF. I must be doing something wrong with the installation, but I can't tell what. I am going to seek some help with it, and hopefully I will get it down soon and be able to finish it up. I added a particle system for explosion effects when the asteroids or the player is destroyed, and the high score table is fully functional. The only thing I really need now is sound and on-screen text.
