SHOOTER3D / SECTOR ZERO - Windows x64 playtest

1. Extract the entire ZIP into a folder. Do not run it inside the ZIP.
2. Double-click Play.cmd (or Shooter3D.exe).
3. It connects to sectorzero.goturgames.com on UDP port 7777.

No Python, SDK, compiler or game engine is needed on the player's PC.
Requires Windows 10/11 64-bit and an updated Vulkan-capable graphics driver.
Keep SDL3.dll and the shaders folder beside Shooter3D.exe.
Offline Preview.cmd shows the renderer without needing the server.

Controls: WASD move; Shift sprint; click captures mouse; mouse aims;
left mouse or Space fires; 1 pistol, 2 shotgun, 3 launcher, 4 landmine (30 ammo); Q dash; hold E revive; F1-F4 choose cache reward; M toggles music; N toggles effects; [/] adjust music; -/+ adjust effects; F11 fullscreen.
Music: 8-bit Epic Space Shooter Music by HydroGene (CC0); see audio/CREDITS.txt.
Escape releases the mouse, then Escape again exits.

If the connection fails, the DNS/server may not be live yet. Ask the host
whether the game server is listening on UDP 7777 and the firewall allows it.
A DNS A record must resolve to the server's reachable IPv4 address.
For another server: Shooter3D.exe -s ADDRESS:7777
For a local server: Shooter3D.exe -l
Use -l --port PORT for localhost on a different port.

If the GPU cannot start, update the graphics driver from its manufacturer.
The Vulkan runtime is supplied by that graphics driver.
This playtest build is unsigned. No installer or administrator access is needed.

Built on Apple Silicon with LLVM-MinGW and SDL3 3.4.4. Binary format,
DLL dependencies and ZIP contents were checked. A Windows runtime/graphics
playtest has not been performed on the build machine.
