NAME

       Trackballs - marble game similar to the classic arcade game 'Marble Madness'

SYNOPSIS

       trackballs [-w] [-m] [-y] [-f] [-e -l<level> -t<level>] [-r<width>] [-s<sensitivity>] ...

DESCRIPTION

       Trackballs  is  a  simple  game  inspired  by the classic Atari 1980's arcade game 'Marble
       Madness' (later released by Electronic Arts for the Amiga and other platforms).

       By steering a marble ball through a labyrinth filled with sharp objects, pools of acid and
       other  obstacles  the  player  collects  points.  When the ball passes through the goal it
       continues to the next, more difficult track - unless the time runs out.

       It should be noted that this game is _not_ intended to be a replica of Marble Madness  but
       rather  merely  inspired  by  it.  For  instance the game uses 3D graphics even though the
       original game had no real use for it. Also the game is fully programmable with a scripting
       extension (Guile), and includes a level editor with which to easily create new levels.
