// Andrew Davison, April 2005, [e-mail]

/* Usual checkboard world but with:
       * extra scenery and obstacles
           - the scenery is loaded with PropManager objects
           - the obstacles cannot be passed through by the sprites
       * a touring 3D sprite controlled from the keyboard
       * an autonomous chasing alien hand
       * a view point that moves with the sprite (a 3rd person camera)
       * textured background
       * full screen 

   The touring sprite cam move about on the XZ plane but can not 
   pass through obstacles or move off the board.

   The scenery and obstacles are specified in a tour textfile
   specified on the command line and read from the /models
   subdirectory.
