Vexed 0.6

by Krzysiek Koziarek <krzynio at apcoh dot org>

This game is a clone of PalmOS game Vexed (http://vexed.sf.net), written
in SDL-perl.

-------

REQUIREMENTS:

- SDL-perl extensions 1.x (http://sdl.perl.org/) 

-------

RULES:

Rules are exactly the same as in original PalmOS Vexed:

Vexed is a puzzle game in which your goal is to move similar blocks
together, which causes them to disappear. Once all the blocks are gone,
you've solved the level and you're presented with a new level to solve. 

You move blocks by putting the mouse on them and dragging (using mouse button)
to either the right or left. If an empty space is encountered, "gravity" takes 
over and the blocks fall towards the bottom.

Scoring is based on a golf-like "par" concept. The level pack has a
solution stored for each level. If you solve the level in the same
number of moves as what is stored in the level pack, you get a score of
0, or par, for that level. Note that the stored solution may not be the
most efficient one, so you can beat "par" and have a negative score.

The score displayed while playing  is a cumulative score for the
entire level pack.

Using the Solution feature adds five to your score.

Each levelpack contains 60 levels.
