πŸ’– GTKPOOL πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the gtkpool(6) page β€” section six, games, iykyk 🎱✨ this is the whole manual for gtkpool: a simple GTK+ pool billiard game. that's the name and the vibe, all in one.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

gtkpool

that's it. that's the whole thing. no args, no drama, no flags. she's low maintenance πŸ’…


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like, real talk β€” this manual page briefly documents the gtkpool command. it was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page 😭 like, none. zero. so we made one. you're welcome.

now the fun part πŸŽ€ gtkpool brings that classic favourite of lounge lizards to a Linux box near you. yes, your Linux box. it's coming to you. 🫢

the tea on the gameplay: it currently has a rather simple playing interface, but β€” and this is the part that ate, no cap β€” it supports a really nifty customizable physics system πŸ”₯ so the interface is chill and simple, but the physics underneath? she's the main character. ⭐


✨ OPTIONS ✨

okay so here's the thing:

  • there are no options. literally none. nada. πŸ’€

just start the game under X by running gtkpool. that's the whole ritual. go forth and pot some balls πŸŽ±πŸ’–
