NAME

SDLjump - a xjump clone

SYNOPSIS

sdljump [ REPLAY ] [ OPTIONS ]
sdljump [ --help ]

DESCRIPTION

SDLjump SDLjump is a clone of the simple yet addictive game Xjump, adding new features like multiplaying, unlimited FPS, smooth floor falling, themable graphics etc...

The goal in this game is to jump to the next floor so you don't fall down. As you go upper in the Falling Tower the floors will fall faster. Try to survive longer than anyone.

To make the multiplayer games last longer, you can choose to have more than one live, but the final result will be divided by the number of lives consumed.

NAME

The game used to be called SDLjump, but since it has become part of the GNU project, the name has changed to GNUjump. There has not been a release using the new name, which is why the executable is currently still called sdljump.
