Mokomaze(6)

🌸 Mokomaze — the manual page, but make it a group chat 🌸

okay bestie, listen up. Mokomaze lives in section 6 of the manual (that's the Games section, iykyk), and it is literally a ball-in-the-labyrinth game. you tilt, the ball rolls, you suffer, you slay. that's the whole vibe. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

Mokomaze — ball-in-the-labyrinth game 🎀

it's giving "tiny ball, big maze, zero chill."

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

mokomaze [-i input_device_type] [-l level_number] [-c option]

that's the whole thing. three little options. main character energy, minimal cast. ✨

💖 OPTIONS 💖

• -i input_device_type, --input input_device_type — this one is for telling the game manually what kind of input device you're on, no cap. right now the supported values are 'freerunner' (which uses the Freerunner's accelerometer, so you tilt your whole phone like it's 2009 and you're living) and 'keyboard'. those two. that's it. 🦋
• -l level_number, --level level_number — picks a level for the game to start from. and bestie, the levels are counted from 1, so level 1 is level 1, not level 0. don't come at me with zero-indexing, this is a maze game not a C array. 🔥
• -c option, --calibrate option — this does the accelerometer calibration when you pass the 'auto' option, or it resets your calibration data when you pass the 'reset' option. so 'auto' = calibrate, 'reset' = wipe it back to default. those are the two moods. 🎀

🫶 EXAMPLES 🫶

okay here's the actual copy-paste menu, all six of them, exactly as they are:

mokomaze

mokomaze -l 5

mokomaze -i freerunner

mokomaze -i keyboard -l 2

mokomaze -c auto

mokomaze -c reset

the way that first one is just mokomaze with no arguments... no thoughts, head empty, just ball. 😭

and that's the whole page, bestie! this was 0.5.0, dated July 2009 — yes, July 2009, we're being vintage on purpose, and it's lowkey iconic. go tilt your phone. 🧚‍♀️🌸
