bombardier - the GNU Bombing utility

Synopsis

bombardier

Description

bombardier is the GNU Bombing utility for POSIX Un*xes. This was one of my favourite games on Commod*re Pl*s 4 when I was I child. Your task is to bomb down cities. This can be done with a 3 character wide curses airplane, which can drop 3 character tall bombs to the ugly # based houses :-) If you can bomb down all of the houses you can land with your plane, and in this case the program will continue on the second city. Good luck!

Commands

space - drop a bomb
p - pause the game
q - quit from the game
1..9 - set the speed of the game
