|
adventgame - an interactive open source programming tutorial
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B adventgame
|
|
[-v] [-h] [--man]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.B adventgame
|
|
is the resulting output from the advent calendar series from the website
|
|
.I advent.aaron-mueller.de
|
|
(in the year 2009). In 12 articles Aaron Mueller
|
|
explain the basics of open source and all its activities. This game is
|
|
the working example. It represents a simple (unfinished)
|
|
.I Worms
|
|
clone.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B -v
|
|
Set verbose output, so the user can see debug messages. This option is usefull
|
|
in development or if a wired bug occurs and you want to know whats going on.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B -h
|
|
Display a short description of all options. This is nice to know what options
|
|
exists without open up this manpage and read this text.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B --man
|
|
Open up this manpage. This option is only a notice to the user to let him
|
|
know that a manpage exists.

.SH PLAY THE GAME
|
|
The game itself is not that hard. When you start the game without a parameter
|
|
or the
|
|
.B -v
|
|
parameter to see more output, you land in the main menu. Here you can choose
|
|
if you want to start a new game or view the credits or even quit the game. If
|
|
you choose to start a new game, the next menu appears. Here you can choose the
|
|
number of players to play the game. Navigating in the menu is done by
|
|
.B j
|
|
or
|
|
.B PAGE DOWN
|
|
and
|
|
.B k
|
|
or
|
|
.B PAGE UP.
|
|
To select a menu utem just press
|
|
.B RETURN
|
|
or
|
|
.B SPACE
|
|
and you change the screen.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If you choose the number of players and continue, you see the game field.
|
|
At this time, there is not really a game, it just display the dynamically
|
|
generated landscape. If you press
|
|
.B RETURN,
|
|
you can regenerate the landscape. If you press
|
|
.B ESC
|
|
or
|
|
.B F10
|
|
, you can quit the game and return to the main menu.
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
There area many unfinished things in this game. If you feel a light prickle
|
|
under your thumbs, feel free to contribute some code or documentation like
|
|
this. This would be great!
