The xonix application consists of a playing area and a
|
|||
|
|
status display below.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The status display shows the current values for level,
|
|||
|
|
filled area (in percent), number of players (lifes), and
|
|||
|
|
elapsed time.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The playing area has several regions. The brown region
|
|||
|
|
(initially only the border) is ``filled region'', where
|
|||
|
|
the player can move, starting from the top left corner.
|
|||
|
|
Beware of the bouncing yellow eater(s) that do also move
|
|||
|
|
across filled regions however, if they hit the player, a
|
|||
|
|
life will go away. The flyers can only bounce across the
|
|||
|
|
green (so-called empty) area in the middle.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The purpose of the game is to move the player across the
|
|||
|
|
empty region (whereby it leaves his way in a brown color
|
|||
|
|
to show where it came along), and finally cut off a piece
|
|||
|
|
of unfilled region by moving him back to some filled
|
|||
|
|
region. If the player itself or the (unfilled yet) way
|
|||
|
|
will be hit by a flyer, a life will be lost again. Once
|
|||
|
|
the player's way reached another part of filled region,
|
|||
|
|
the way and all adjacent unfilled regions where there is
|
|||
|
|
no flyer in will be filled in turn. One level has com-
|
|||
|
|
pleted as soon as 75 % of the originally unfilled area
|
|||
|
|
have been filled this way.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Every level, there will be one flyer more. Every second
|
|||
|
|
level, an additional player will be granted. Every fifth
|
|||
|
|
level, an additional eater will be fired off.
|
|||

The original xonix game has been seen somewhere on an old
|
|||
|
|
PC/XT clone. This is a reimplementation from scratch,
|
|||
|
|
done by Torsten Sch<63>nitz starting the project on a Macin-
|
|||
|
|
tosh. The X11 support has been written by J<>rg Wunsch
|
|||
|
|
with the pleasant help by Alfredo Herrera Hern<72>ndez.
