NAME

       pax-britannica - one-button real-time strategy game

SYNOPSIS

       pax-britannica [--stderr]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page briefly documents the pax-britannica game.

       pax-britannica  is  a  multi-player  real-time strategy game that is played using only one
       button for each player.

OPTIONS

       --stderr
              Send log messages to standard error, instead of ~/.dokidoki.log.

       --fullscreen
              Start in fullscreen mode.

HOW TO PLAY

       The A, F, H, and L keys control the four players, and the escape key quits.  Gamepads  are
       also supported.

       Holding  down the button spins the needle on the radial menu in the middle of the player's
       factory ship. The needle will only travel as far as the player's current resources  allow.
       Resources (gold? seaweed? who knows!)  accumulate over time.  Releasing the button creates
       a ship that corresponds to the quadrant that the needle is pointing at.

       Q1 - Fighter
              Small, fast and cheap. Great at chasing down bombers.

       Q2 - Bomber
              Shoots slow projectiles that do massive damage to frigates or enemy factory ships!

       Q3 - Frigate
              A great hulk of a ship that fires volleys  of  heat-seeking  torpedoes.   Effective
              against fighters.

       Q4 - Upgrade
              Improve your factory ship to accumulate resources more quickly.
