๐ŸŒธ VITETRIS(6) ๐ŸŒธ

okay bestie, welcome to the Vitetris Game Manual โ€” yeah, the whole thing lives in section 6 of the manual, and yeah, we're gonna read it together ๐Ÿ’–


โœจ NAME โœจ

vitetris โ€” literally the game of tetris. that's it. that's the name. iconic behavior ๐Ÿ’…


๐Ÿฆ‹ DESCRIPTION ๐Ÿฆ‹

so like, this is vitetris version 0.59.1 (20201226) and it's giving classic falling-blocks main character energy โœจ here's everything it can do for you:

  • -nomenu โ€” skip the menus. no waiting, no chit-chat, straight to business ๐Ÿ’€
  • -hiscores โ€” print the highscore list and then dip. bye ๐Ÿ‘‹
  • -hiscores FILE โ€” read highscore entries from FILE and add them in ๐ŸŽ€
  • -js0 DEVNAME โ€” joystick device name (like /dev/js0 for example ๐Ÿ•น๏ธ)
  • -js1 DEVNAME โ€” the second joystick's device name. two joysticks, two vibes ๐Ÿซถ
  • -listen PORT โ€” listen for connections on port PORT ๐Ÿ‘‘
  • -connect HOSTNAME:PORT โ€” connect to HOSTNAME on PORT. and just so you know, HOSTNAME may be an IP address ๐ŸŒˆ
  • -connect PORT โ€” connect to localhost on PORT (when you just wanna hang with your local self ๐Ÿ’œ)
  • -name NAME โ€” identify yourself as NAME when connecting to other players. pick something cute, it's your whole brand โœจ
  • -help โ€” print this help and exit ๐Ÿ™ˆ
  • -help game โ€” list the game options and exit ๐ŸŽฎ
  • -help term โ€” list the terminal options and exit ๐Ÿ’ป
  • -?, -h [ARG] โ€” same as -help ARG (but only if ARG isn't a number, okay? noted ๐Ÿ“)

also, little flex: options may also be given as option=ARG, --option=ARG etc. so many ways to say the same thing, we love options ๐ŸŽ€

๐Ÿ’พ heads up bestie: highscores are saved in ~/.vitetris, and in /var/games/vitetris-hiscores if it exists and is writable. two homes for your glory, no cap.

and that's the whole page, you ate it fr fr ๐Ÿซถ stay slay, keep stacking, and remember โ€” vitetris 0.59.1 (20201226), December 2020, straight out of VITETRIS(6) ๐Ÿ’–โœจ๐ŸŽ€
