Stardork is a Linux console based game where (.)'s represent stars and are randomly placed on the screen. (X) represents your space ship and you move in in all directions, including diagonally, to position yourself to shoot the goal (@). You can also shoot missles in all directions. If you run into a star you lose power. If you shoot or run into the goal then you move up a level and more random stars are plotted. This eventually creates a more and more complex maze of stars you must nagivate through to position yourself to shoot the goal. Beat all 34 levels and you are a master stardork.
Requirements (Linux, ncurses library, C compiler)You use the numeric-keypad to move your ship (X) in all directions. up/down right/left, diagnal up/left/right/down.
How to move your ship (X)Everytime you sucessfully hit the goal (@) with a missle you move up a level and more stars (.)'s are randomly placed on the screen. This creates a maze of stars that you have to try to navigate through to position yourself to shoot the goal. (You can also hit the goal with your ship)
If you run into a star a point is taking off your life in your power bar. When you run into a star it becomes invisible and you must remember where it is otherwise if you move back to that position you will still be hit and lose power.
There are 34 levels all together. Good luck star dork ;)Also check out my software review blog
