+Trackballs is a marble game inspired by the 80s Atari classic Marble
+Madness.
+
+By steering a marble ball through a labyrinth filled with sharp objecs,
+pools of acid, and other obstacles the player collects points. When
+the destination is reached you continue on to the next, more difficult
+level. - unless the time runs out.
+
+This Slackware package can include the music and/or extra levels available
+at the trackballs home page: http://trackballs.sourceforge.net
+
+To add the music, download the file "trackballs-music-1.4.tar.bz2"
+and save it in the same directory as the SlackBuild script. If using
+a newer version of the music than 1.4, set MUSICVER in the environment
+before running trackballs.SlackBuild.
+
+To add extra levels, download the level collections you want and place
+them in the levels/ subdirectory before running trackballs.SlackBuild. The
+script can handle levels in tar or zip format. Note that some of the
+add-on levels offered on the web site are now included with the game
+source (specificallly, "Box O' Fun", "Child of Tales", and "Castles"
+are part of the main game now, and don't need to be added). Also note
+that the "Six Levels" pack doesn't work with this version of the game.
