(which is itself a clone of an earlier arcade game named, +simply "Circus"). +.P +The object is to move a teeter-totter back and forth across the screen +to bounce clowns up into the air. When they reach the top, they pop rows +of balloons and then fall back down. +.P +(The gameplay is similar to the classics "Breakout" and "Arkanoid.") +.P +During gameplay, the mouse or joystick is used to move the teeter\-totter, +and any mouse/joystick button is used to launch a new clown (to start the +level) and to flip the teeter\-totter (after a clown has been launched). +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +\fB\-\-disable\-sound\fR, \fB\-\-nosound\fR, \fB\-q\fR +Disable sound and music. +.TP +\fB\-\-fullscreen\fR, \fB\-f\fR +Display in full screen instead of a window, if possible. +.TP +\fB\-\-digital\fR, \fB\-d\fR +Joystick will be seen as a digital game pad, not analog. +.TP +\fB\-\-paddle\fR, \fB\-p\fR +Joystick will be seen as a real Atari paddle. +.TP +\fB\-\-low\fR, \fB\-l\fR +Use less graphics to work on lower\-end hardware. +.TP +\fB\-\-help\fR, \fB\-h\fR +Display help on playing the game. +.TP +\fB\-\-usage\fR, \fB\-u\fR +Display this usage information. +.TP +\fB\-\-version\fR, \fB\-v\fR +Display what version you're running. +.TP +\fB\-\-copying\fR, \fB\-c\fR +Display copying (GPL) information. +.SH FILES +.TP +\fB/usr/share/circuslinux/data\fR +game data (images, music, sound) +.TP +\fB$HOME/.circuslinux\fR +per\-user settings and high\-score records +.SH AUTHORS +Programming: Bill Kendrick +.br +Graphics: Manu Parssinen and Bill Kendrick +.br +Music: Jarkko Rotsten +.P +New Breed Software's web site is located at +.br +.nh +\fBhttp://www.newbreedsoftware.com/\fR +.hy +.P +Man page created by B.
