Two releases in two days. It feels like the early years of Laser development again. :) This is just a minor clean-up release today.
I went through and tested all of the games. I've commented out the games that do not work anymore (many never did) and re-added the game list to the readme. Also, some games have been updated so they use rom names from the latest MAME naming conventions.
With release 1.01, there are now 25 playable arcade games supported by Laser. See the readme for more information.
It's been 9 years since the last release of Laser. Much has changed since then, most notably the fact that computers are much faster. Because of this, a frame limiter (from SDL_gfx) has been added. Also, sound is now set as always on. The -sound flag has been removed.
This is the first SDL port of Laser. All future development of Laser will be focused on the SDL version. This is to aid with the ease of system portability.
