NBPIPES(6)

🎀 PIPES 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the pipes / nbpipes manual page (section 6, games, the fun corner of the man pages obviously) 💖 this is your little group chat briefing on how to keep a whole pipeline alive. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

pipes, nbpipes — that's the name of the game, literally. two names, one iconic pipeline situation. 🦋

🕹️ CONTROLS 🕹️

here's your whole keyboard situation, memorize it, it's giving cheat sheet:

• RETURN/ENTER — place a pipe. or replace one, if there's already a pipe sitting there like 👀. one key, two jobs, we love efficiency.
• hjkl/ARROW KEYS — move the cursor around. yes hjkl, the vim girlies are already nodding. ✨
• p — pause. take a breath, hydrate, the sewage will wait.
• q — quit. bye bestie 🫶
• f — toggle fast flow. speed it up when you're feeling brave. 🔥
• F1 & F2 — help on controls & gameplay respectively. when in doubt, smash F1, it's literally right there for you.
• YOU CAN ALSO USE THE MOUSE! 🖱️✨ not me giving you options, but yeah, the mouse works too. slay.

mouse girlies and keyboard girlies are both valid in this household 💅

🌈 GAMEPLAY 🌈

so here's the vibe check: keep maintaining the pipeline and don´t let the sewage leak. 😭

that's it. that's the game. the pipeline needs you, the sewage is plotting against you, and you are the main character who has to hold it all together. no pressure bestie 💀

and that's the whole page, periodt. this gem is from the PIPES() corner of the manuals, dated May 2021 ⭐ go forth, place those pipes, and absolutely do not let the sewage leak, iykyk 🧚💜
