💖 Tatan(6) — the manual page, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, pull up a chair, we're reading the Tatan(6) page together and honestly? it's short, it's sweet, and it's giving arcade-cabinet-in-a-quantum-realm. let's go 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

tatan — a pointing STG shooter game 🎯

like, it's a shooter, but "STG" style, and you point. that's the whole vibe. iconic behavior fr fr.

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so Tatan is a shooter game with simplified controls — and when they say simplified, they mean simplified, bestie. here's the whole scheme:

  • the mouse — that's your aim and your shoot button. point, click, slay. 💅
  • the space bar — toggles your position. that's it. that's the button. 🫶

and what are you doing while you're aiming and shooting and toggling? you're collecting the yellow stars ✨ for power ups. or — if you're feeling spicy — you can shoot the white ones circumscribed in spheres and get your power ups that way instead. two paths, same glow-up. no cap.

now here's the lore, and it's a lot: the game is played in some sort of quantum universe 🌌🔮 and you are either positioned on the left or the right. that's it. that's the quantum mechanics. left or right. main character energy on exactly one axis, and honestly? we respect it. 😭

ngl the "toggle your position" thing hits different once you know you're quantum. left. right. left. right. the space bar is literally your multiverse switch 🦋
