NAME

       xjump - a jumping game for X

SYNOPSIS

       xjump [ -toolkitoption ] ... [ -private ] [ -graphic file ] [ -keymap ]
       xjump [ -help ]

DESCRIPTION

       Xjump  is a jumping game where you are in a Falling Tower. The floor you are standing on is sinking with the rest of the building; you will
       die once the floor gives way (disappears under the bottom of the display). To survive, you have to jump onto the upper floors of the tower.
       Because the entire tower is sinking, the upper floors will soon collapse, too, so you have to keep on jumping to higher floors.

       Your  score  is	counted  by how many floors you jump before you either fall off while trying to reach the next floor, or the floor you are
       standing on collapses.

OPTIONS

       -toolkitoption ...
	      Specify X toolkit options (such as -geometry, -display, etc.).

       -private
	      Use private colormap.

       -graphic FILE
	      Use the XPM graphic file FILE for graphics.

       -keymap
	      Read keymap directly.

       -help  Display a summary of command-line syntax.

GAME CONTROLS

       To begin the game, press the Space-bar from the highscore screen.

       Once the game begins, movement is controlled by the Left and Right arrow keys. To jump, use the Up arrow key.

       Note that hitting the Left or Right arrow keys many times will cause the player to go faster. You can use this to reach floors that are far
       away.   But be careful not to jump too far and miss! You can also change your speed while jumping through midair. If your reflexes are fast
       enough, you can salvage a bad jump this way. Good luck!

       To quit the game, press shift-Q.
