NAME
       slingshot - simple 2D shooting strategy game set in space, with gravity

SYNOPSIS
       slingshot

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents briefly the slingshot command.

       slingshot  is a two dimensional, turn based simulation-strategy game set in the gravity fields of several planets. It is a highly addictive
       game, and never the same from round to round due to its randomly generated playing fields.

       It is a deceptively simple game, the goal is to shoot the other spacecraft through the field of planets, but their gravity makes it tricky.
       The  effects of the gravity mean that although it's easy to learn how to play, and to enjoy playing, it could take a lifetime to thoroughly
       master.

       In order to hit your opponent, you can rotate you ship to aim in any direction, and you can change the power with which your projectile	is
       launched - the initial speed at which it flies.

OPTIONS
       This program has no command line options.
