🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

foobillardplus [--option [<arg>]]

like... that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. 🦋

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

foobillardplus is an advanced 3D OpenGL billiard game, and it's built on the original foobillard 3.0a sources from Florian Berger. You can play with one player, two players, or against the computer — your call, no pressure. 💜

The game is giving so much, honestly. Here's the vibe check:

• Wood paneled table with gold covers and gold diamonds. ✨
• Reflections on balls. (yes the balls are shiny, we love that for them)
• Zoom in and out, rotation, different angles and bird's eye view. 🦅
• Different game modes: 8 or 9-ball, Snooker or Karambol. 👑
• Tournaments. Compete against other players. 🔥
• Animated cue with strength and eccentric hit adjustment. 🎯
• Jump shots and snipping. 💥
• Realistic gameplay and billiard sounds. 🔊
• Red-Green stereo. 🌈
• And much more. (the "and much more" is doing a lot of heavy lifting but we respect it)
