NAME

       frozen-bubble-editor - a level editor for Frozen Bubble

SYNOPSIS

       frozen-bubble-editor [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       This  editor lets you manipulate level-sets, in which you can add, remove and modify levels thanks to a mouse-oriented interface (there are
       also many interesting keyboard shortcuts). The interface is very straightforward: click on the written planches on the left an right  parts
       of  the screen to perform the relevant actions, and on the level area to change the bubble color; use the "void" bubble (or right-click) to
       remove a bubble.

       -lsFILENAME, --levelsetFILENAME
	      directly start with the specified levelset name

       -lNUMB, --levelNUMB
	      directly start the level number NUMB

       -cb, --colourblind

NAME

       xbubble - an X Window based puzzle bubble clone

SYNOPSIS

       xbubble [OPTION]

DESCRIPTION

       XBubble	is  a  Puzzle  Bubble  (PB)  /	Bust-A-Move (BAM) clone for Unix/X11 platforms. It was written from scratch with no real intent to
       exactly reproduce the original game.

OPTIONS

       -d DISPLAY
	      Set X display to DISPLAY.

       -s <scale>
	      Set game window size (between 5 and 100).  The game window size is normally automatically scaled to your screen size.   This  option
	      is useful to reduce load on slow/loaded systems. See also the -f option.

       -f <framerate>
	      Adjust  frame  rate  (in frames per second). Usual values are 100 (default), 50, 33, 25, etc. The actual frame rate may be different
	      from the one you specified, depending on system timer resolution. You can use this option to  reduce  load  on  slow/loaded  systems
	      (e.g. if sprite animation is jerky). See also the -s option.

       -r <resource path>
	      Tell XBubble to look for its graphics files, fonts, etc. in directory <resourcepath>.

       -t <theme name>
	      Use the given theme (possible values are: plain, frozen, fancy).

PLAYING

       The  goal is to clear all bubbles from your board and avoid bubbles dropping below the line at the bottom of the screen. You can rotate and
       fire a canon that launches colored bubbles. Bubbles bounce against the walls until they get stuck to another bubble. If you  get  three	or
       more adjacent bubbles of the same color they all explode, while any bubble left hanging free falls down.

       In single player mode, the ceiling goes down every 12 launches so that you must clear the board before the ceiling touches the ground.

       In  multi-player  mode,	the ceiling does not move but a fresh row of bubbles is added on top of the board while all bubbles are lowered by
       one row. Additionally, each time you explode three or more bubbles, all extra bubbles are sent (with random colors) to  your  opponent,	as
       well all falling bubbles.  You win the round when your opponent loses (has bubbles dropping across the bottom line).

       After  a  few  seconds  delay, your canon launches its bubble anyway. You can tune this delay when selecting your handicap.  The higher the
       handicap, the shorter the delay.

GAME CONTROL

       The game is entirely controlled using the keyboard:

       Player 1

	      Left arrow / Keypad 4   =  Rotate canon left

	      Right arrow / Keypad 6  =  Rotate canon right

	      Up arrow / Keypad 5     =  Launch bubble

       Player 2

	      x  =  Rotate canon left

	      v  =  Rotate canon right

	      c  =  Launch bubble

       General

	      Up arrow / Keypad 8    =	Menu navigate up

	      Down arrow / Keypad 2  =	Menu navigate down

	      p 		     =	Pause

	      Escape / q	     =	Abort

	      There is no command-line option for changing control keys yet.

PLAYER VS COMPUTER MODE

       You can choose between 5 levels of difficulty.  Beware of the highest level if you have a slow machine, as it is quite CPU consuming.
