This is a port of xrick #021212 by BigOrno^[1] for the Xbox. It is an open source implementation of Rick Dangerous from the 80s.

-====  LICENSE AGREEMENT & LEGAL BABLE ====
-I have written the xrick code. However, graphics and maps and sounds
-are by the authors of the original Rick Dangerous game, and "Rick
-Dangerous" remains a trademark of its owner(s) -- maybe Core Design
-(who wrote the game) or FireBird (who published it). As of today, I
-have not been successful at contacting Core Design.
-This makes it a bit difficult to formally release the whole code,
-including data for graphics and maps and sounds, under the terms of
-licences such as the GNU General Public Licence. So the code is
-released "in the spirit" of the GNU GPL. Whatever that means.
