XSOLDIER(6)

💫 xsoldier(6) — the space shooty game, but make it a whole vibe 💫

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for xsoldier from the Games Manual, section 6, and honestly? it's giving "fly around in space and destroy literally everything." no notes. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

xsoldier — a space-based shoot'em up game 🚀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

xsoldier [-dwcsh] [-displayname] [-waitnumber] [-cmap] [-score] [-help]
[-maxlevel]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so first thing's first: this manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution, because the original program does not have a manual page. so yeah, this page is the whole lore drop. 🫶

xsoldier is a space-based shoot'em up game. you fly around and try to kill everything that moves... and everything that doesn't move... you get the idea. 😌✨

not me casually declaring war on the entire observable universe. no cap. 🔥

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -d, -display name — the (X window) display on which you want to play the game. tell it where to put the spaceship, bestie. 🖥️
• -w, -wait number — set the speed of the game. a higher number means the game runs slower. heads up tho: if you use this option the ranking mode is turned off. 🐌
• -c, -cmap — do nothing (only for backward compatibility). it's literally just sitting there. iconic behavior honestly. 💀
• -s, -score — show the TOP10 soldiers, i.e. the highscore. leaderboard moment 🏆
• -h, -help — show a short help text and exit. bye bestie 👋
• -maxlevel — force max level enemy attack, making your life really harder. this is not a drill. it's giving chaos mode, and your life will genuinely be harder. 😭🔥
• -nopausemessage — don't show "Press [p] to resume game." message when the game is paused. useful for capturing a screen snapshot. 📸✨
