WING(6)

✨ WING ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Games Manual section, pull up a chair 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

wing — it's a galaga clone, no cap 👑💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

wing [-w]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so WING stands for Wing Is Not Galaga and honestly?? iconic recursive naming, we love a self-aware acronym ✨

It's an arcade game where you pilot a player-controlled starship and the computer throws computer-controlled opponents at you. There are six levels — and the way to level up is literally just: destroy all the opponents in the current level. That's it. That's the whole vibe check. 🚀💀

💜 OPTIONS 💜

• -w — runs wing in windowed mode. that's the whole option list bestie, it's a simple girlie 🎀

🎮 KEYS 🎮

• Left, Right, Up, Down — move the ship across the screen. all four directions, we're not doing one-dimensional over here 💅
• Ctrl — fire. pew pew. 🔥
• F1, F2, F3, F4 — change your current weapon 🗡️ the available weapons are:
  • laser (this one's the default, she's the main character 👑)
  • minigun
  • plasma
  • torpedo
• Esc — escape from the current menu. 🏃‍♀️ and if you're already in the main menu? it quits the game. so like, don't press it absentmindedly unless you're done bestie 😭

fr fr, Esc in the main menu means goodbye, there's no take-backs 🌸
