+Banshee aims to become a standard in game development by providing rock solid implementations of known and widely used techniques while also being flexible enough to implement constantly changing cutting edge techniques. Built from ground up to be a modern library using modern design principles. Everything is modular, layered and decoupled as much as possible, making it easier to modify, replace or add functionality. Platform specific functionality is kept at a minimum making porting as easy as possible. Additionally every non-trivial method, class and field is documented.

+On top of the powerful and flexible C++ core lies a fully featured editor and a C# scripting system. C# scripting makes your development easier by giving you access to the entire .NET library, along with fast iterations times while being safe and easy to write. Editor is fully extensible with the help of C# scripting so you may customize it for exact needs of your project.

+## Download/Install
+
+To get Banshee to run you will need to check out the source code either from GitHub or download the source code package below. Additionally you will need dependencies only available for download below. Dependencies should be extracted in the same folder as the root folder of the project (they share folder structure so it should be easy to see what goes where).
 
-Or download the combined package:
+To compile Banshee you will need Visual Studio 2013 (Express version will work, but earlier Visual Studio versions will not). Other Windows compilers might work but have not been tested. Support for more platforms and compilers will become available with time.
