that's it. that's the whole invocation. no flags, no arguments, just run her. iconic behavior tbh.
π DESCRIPTION π
so Galois is a computer game of the "falling blocks" type, BUT β and this is the part where you need to sit up straight β she has unique features. π
unlike most other games of that type, she is not limited to blocks made of four two-dimensional, square bricks. no ma'am. you can choose among:
- several different brick shapes π¦
- blocks composed of more or fewer bricks π
- and even between two- and three-dimensional games π€―
like... 3D falling blocks?? she really said "let me give you options." main character energy fr fr.
Galois is free software, released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, version 3 or later. periodt. π
