In this game Kenta has introduced physics into his formula of hardcore shooting games. Similar in some ways to Asteroids and Nibbles, the playing area is a rectangular arena in which vessel\-snakes have only one idea at the head: expelling the others into the vacuum. You incarnate one of them, and you'll quickly realize the subtlety of the goal: your tail lengthens as you destroy your enemies. .SH "OPTIONS" These command\-line options are available: .TP \fB\-brightness n\fR Set the brightness of the screen. (n = 0 \- 100, default = 100) .TP \fB\-res x y\fR Set the screen resolution to (x, y). (default = 640, 480) .TP \fB\-nosound\fR Stop the sound. .TP \fB\-window\fR Launch the game in a window. .TP \fB\-fullscreen\fR Launch the game in fullscreen mode. .TP \fB\-exchange\fR Exchange a shot key and a cut off key. .TP \fB\-rotatestick2 n\fR Rotate the direction of the stick2 in n degrees. .TP \fB\-reversestick2\fR Reverse the direction of the stick2. .TP \fB\-disablestick2\fR Disable the input of the stick2. .TP \fB\-enableaxis5\fR Use the input of axis 5 to fire shots and axis 3 to cut off the tail. (for Xbox 360 wired controller) .SH "USAGE" Keep your ship from falling down and push enemies out of the way.
