NAME

kamikaze - Multiplayer action game in bomberman style

SYNOPSIS

kamikaze [--theme=THEME]

DESCRIPTION

Kamikaze is an action game in which the player, who is acting on a game board, tries to blow up the opponents by placing bombs in strategically helpful positions. Obstacles such as walls or holes in the ground make this difficult, but on the other hand, items such as additional lives and extended power can be found to overcome the hurdles.

Kamikaze supports several themes, and levels can be selected and even shared via the internet. A level editor (kamikaze-editor) exists for this purpose.

Kamikaze can be played online against bots and other people! If GGZ Gaming Zone support has been compiled in, just join the Kamikaze room in your favourite GGZ core client, and join or launch a game.

More information and game help is available in the manual, which is available via the KDE Help Center.

GAMEPLAY

Either launch the game directly for playing locally against a bunch of monsters, or use the GGZ Gaming Zone to connect to the kamikaze server, which provides both monsters and other players.

Move your player character using the cursor keys (up, down, left, right). Try to get near a monster (or an opponent), and place a bomb using the space bar. Of course, run away quickly so the explosion doesn't hit you.

You can cycle through your inventory with the tab key. Currently, beside normal bombs, there are time bombs which are inactive until they're activated using the return key (enter).
