From the included README:

        Kobo II Tech Preview 1 Release Note
        ===================================

        Kobo II (working title) is a top-down scrolling 2D
        shooter, developed completely as a one-man endeavor
        by the creator of Kobo Deluxe.

        Unlike Kobo Deluxe, Kobo II is physics based, and is
        intended to be played with dual analog sticks. (As in,
        a modern game pad.) Although aiming to be a bit more
        accessible and less unforgiving and frustrating than
        Kobo Deluxe, Kobo II is in no way intended to become
        a low resistance casual shooter.

        As you may know, Kobo Deluxe is not an original game,
        but rather a new engine and new media for the game
        logic from Akira Higuchi’s XKobo. As such, Kobo II is
        actually a new game by a different designer, more
        than a true sequel.

        It may in fact turn into something rather different
        over time – and this is where You come in, aspiring
        fighter pilot! This game is for You, me and all others
        who loved XKobo/Kobo Deluxe, and want to see that
        concept upgraded to modern standards. I want Your
        ideas and feedback, to iteratively develop Kobo II to
        its fullest potential.
