NAME

       ghextris - Hextris game for GNOME

SYNOPSIS

       ghextris

DESCRIPTION

       ghextris  is  a  Python/GNOME reimplementation of the semi-free Xhextris by David Markley.
       The object of the game is basically the same as in Tetris; use the pieces that  fall  down
       from  the  top of the game area to construct fully filled lines, which will then disappear
       to make room for more pieces.  The twist, as first introduced  by  Markley,  is  that  the
       pieces  are  composed  of hexagonal blocks, so your visualization skills will get an extra
       workout.

RULES

       The pieces can be moved left and right with the respective arrow keys and rotated with the
       up and down arrow keys. If you're satisfied with where a piece is going, it can be dropped
       by pressing the space bar.  Fully formed lines will disappear from the playing field.  The
       game will end when the pile of pieces reaches the top of the game area.

   Score
       You  get 1 point for every line that you drop a piece, and 100, 200, 400 or 800 points for
       1, 2, 3 or 4 simultaneously destroyed lines, respectively.
