DESCRIPTION:

Koules is a fast action  arcade-style game for UNIX.  This  version  supports
X window  system and  SVGAlib  for Linux.  It works in fine (up to 640x480) 
resolution with cool 256 color graphics,multiplayer mode up to 5 players and 
sounds .  Koules is an original idea. Koules was  developed from scratch by 
Jan Hubicka in July 1995.

          It runs well on computers which can be marked  as faster than
         386DX/40 + math coprocessor (320x200 resolution)  or  486DX2/50
        (640x480 resolution).  UNIX  and  X11/SVGAlib  are also required.
