<h1>
About</h1>
<p>
AssaultCube is a total conversion of <a href="http://strlen.com" target="_blank"
shape="rect">Wouter van Oortmerssen´s</a> FPS called <a href="http://cubeengine.com"
target="_blank" shape="rect">Cube</a>. AssaultCube encourages players from
all platforms to play by being multi-platform (Available on: Windows, Linux and
Mac OS X), <a href="#license" shape="rect">partially open-source</a> and low on system
and networking requirements. It is set in a realistic looking environment (as best
that's possible with this engine) while gameplay stays fast and arcade. This game
is all about team oriented, multi-player fun.
