USAGE

       The  game  will  start  by  default  in  windowed mode, but it can be changed into a fullscreen mode. The
       configuration will be maintained whenever it is started again later.

       Initially a login screen will be presented to the user. Users can either create an  offline  account  for
       themselves  or  use the default Guest account. When logging into the game a desired age (school year) can
       be selected to fine tune the difficulty of activities.

       When logged in, the game will present a starting screen with 3 main groups of categories of activities to
       choose from. When a group is selected a list of all categories suitable for previously selected age group
       will be shown. Further selection of a category will display a list of available activities. Upon clicking
       on  an  activity  icon it will start taking up the whole screen. A back button is located in the top left
       corner to go back to the previous screen.

       There are two steps to selecting a language. The language selected on the login screen  will  change  the
       language  of  the  login  screen  only,  but also will be used as a default language for new users. After
       logging in individual users can choose a different language - the icon to access the  language  selection
       screen is located in the bottom left corner of the home screen - the language selected here will be saved
       for each user individually. This allows users to use the program to learn other languages.

FILES

       The game data for each user is stored at ~/.local/share/eduactiv8/
