BYGFOOT(6)

📦 version 2.3.2, in ubuntu jammy

💖 bygfoot(6) — the football (a.k.a. soccer) management game, bestie edition 💖

okay so. you're here because you wanna run bygfoot, a whole football (a.k.a. soccer) management game, and you wanna know what's up. this is the manual page for the bygfoot(6) page in the Games Manual, and I'm gonna walk you through it like we're texting at 2am. let's go 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bygfoot [options]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. you run it, you pass it options, it does the thing. iconic behavior honestly 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this manual page documents briefly the bygfoot. brief. like a little teaser. a lil appetizer. 🍓

and here's the actual tea: bygfoot lets you manage a team by training the players, buying and selling them, contracting loans, maintaining the stadium, etc. yeah. you're the manager now. main character energy fr fr 👑

you can be promoted or relegated, even become a champion if you're a skillful manager. (not me manifesting a championship run on my first save 😭✨)

The game is deliberately kept simple (though not easy): you only have to keep one eye at your players and another at your stadium. two eyes. two things. that's the whole job. lowkey genius design ngl 🦋

and if you're feeling creative? You can customise Bygfoot by writing your own country definition files or by creating your own team definition. build your own little universe. obsessed. 🎀

💅 OPTIONS 💅

A summary of options is included below. (a summary, bestie. short and sweet.)

  • -h, --help — Show help options. classic. the "hello what do you do" button ✨
  • --help-all — Show all help options. ALL of them. the deluxe help experience 🌈
  • --help-gtk — Show GTK+ options. help but make it GTK+ 💖
  • -d, --debug-level=N — [developer] Debug level to use.
  • -o, --debug-output=0,1 or 2 — [developer] Debug output to use.
  • -D, --deb=STRING — [developer] A debug command like 'deb100 to set the debug level'; see the debug window and debug.c
  • --display=VISOR — Visor [display] X to use
ok real talk: those three marked [developer] ones are dev-coded, iykyk. they're for the people poking at the internals, not for a chill game night. and heads up, that --deb example is written exactly how the page writes it, apostrophe and all — don't come for me, I'm just the messenger 🙈
