🌈 NAME 🌈

zatacka — an arcade multiplayer game, like nibbles but make it a whole vibe 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

zatacka

that's it. that's the whole invocation. no flags, no drama, just launch it. 👑

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This manual page documents briefly the zatacka command. brief but iconic, as always. ✨

zatacka is an arcade multiplayer game for 2 - 6 players on one keyboard 🎮 — yes, all of you, one keyboard, shoulder to shoulder, elbows out, main character energy for everyone. It's a clone of Achtung die Kurve, the classical dos game 🕹️. So if you know, you know. iykyk.

Here's the gameplay tea, fr fr:

  • You handle your line 🌀 — it's yours, you steer it, you own it.
  • You must sidetrack lines of other players and, of course, walls 🧱. Both are out to get you. Not to be dramatic but they literally are.
  • When some player dies 💀, survival gets one point for the player who survived.
  • When only one player is left alive, the round is finished 🏁.
  • Each game has eleven rounds. eleven. not ten. not twelve. eleven. periodt. 💅
lowkey the whole game is just "don't touch anything and also everyone else is trying to make you touch things." it's giving survival horror but with more friendship. 🫶
