Jason Woofenden and Josh Grams like Rock Dodgers
(http://spacerocks.sourceforge.net/) very much: both playing it and hacking on
it. VoR is the result. It is currently based on the rockdodger 0.4.2 codebase,
want to kill a few spare minutes. For reference, my best time [Josh Grams] is
about 2 minutes in version 0.3. I'm not generally very good at video games, but
I have been playing this one for quite a while now. However, you can make it
-substantially easier by slowing the game down. New in version 0.2, we have a
-constant GAMESPEED in config.h. New players may like to try it at 3/4 or even
-2/3 speed. It should probably be a command-line option, but I'm too lazy to
-fix that right now.
+substantially easier by slowing the game down. New in version 0.3, we have a
+command-line option --game-speed=N%. New players may like to try it at 0.75 or
+even 0.66.
Changes from Rock Dodgers
* Fully random rock generation; rocks no longer wrap vertically.
* Rocks' relative speeds are now uniform in all directions (i.e. much more
up/down speed variation). Noticeably hard...err...more "interesting".
+ * Command-line option --game-speed.
