NAME

       burgerspace - A hamburger-smashing video game

SYNOPSIS

       burgerspace

DESCRIPTION

       BurgerSpace  is	a  game  where you are a chef and you must walk over hamburger ingredients (buns, meat, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese) to make
       them fall from floor to floor, until they end up in the plates at the bottom of the screen.  Use the arrow keys to move the chef.

       However, you must do this while avoiding terrible enemies, such as eggs, sausages and pickles.  You will die if they touch you, but you can
       spray pepper on them with the Control key to paralyze them temporarily.

       Use  those  pepper  shots  sparingly  because  you only have a limited number of them.  Pick up the treat that appears from time to time to
       obtain a new pepper shot.

       A two-player game is possible using the (experimental) networked version of BurgerSpace.  See the burgerspace-server(6) manual page or  the
       BurgerSpace Home Page for details.

       Use  the  Escape  key to quit the program.  To pause the game (which is only possible in stand-alone mode), use the P key to pause the game
       and to resume it afterwards.
