 `pixels` is more than just a library to push pixels to a screen, but less than a full framework. You're in charge of managing a window environment, event loop, and input handling.
 
 ## Features
 
-- Built on modern graphics APIs: DirectX 12, Vulkan, Metal, OpenGL.

 - Use your own custom shaders for special effects. (WIP)
 - Hardware accelerated scaling on perfect pixel boundaries.
 - Supports non-square pixel aspect ratios. (WIP)

 To demonstrate `pixels`, I've written a Space Invaders clone. The game logic can be found in the `simple-invaders` crate. The included example uses `simple-invaders` to rasterize the image, and `pixels` to display it. `winit` provides the windowing and event handling.
 
 ```bash
-cargo run --example invaders
+cargo run --release --example invaders
 ```
