+Armagetron Advanced is a multiplayer game in 3D that attempts to emulate
+and expand on the light cycle sequence from the movie Tron.
+
+Tron was an arcade game based on the movie of the same name, release by
+Disney in 1982. The original game consisted of 4 sub-games, the only one of
+concern is the 'Light Cycles' one, in which the player uses a left/right
+joystick to control a 'Light Cycle' which leaves a wall behind it wherever
+the cycle it goes, turning only at 90 degree angles. The player must then get
+the AI to crash into their wall while avoiding hitting the AI's own wall
+themselves. Those were the humble beginnings of Armagetron Advanced's
+game play, which has now blossomed into 16 player mayhem, with highly
+advanced AI, network game play, and of course all in a 3D environment.
