A\ncomplete game only lasts for a few minutes and can be a fun break away from\nwork or whatever you're doing.\n\nThe setting of the game is a solar system of planets. Your goal is to conquer\nall of the planets in the game by sending ships there. Planets that are \nunder your control generate new ships. Simple AI players are playing against\nyou. As you gain more experience throughout the game, more AI players have to\nbe kicked out of bigger solar systems.\n\n(from http://anthony.liekens.net/index.php/Computers/Qonk)\n\nThe game is currently very much in beta.\n\nFor information on how to compile the source code refer to the INSTALL file.\n\nHow to play\n-----------\n\nThe goal is wipe out all enemies from the solar system. \n\nSelect a group of planets to put their ships into your selection for the next\nmove. Now do a right-click near the planet where you want to send you fleet to.\nYou can attack neutral (grey), enemy (some color) and reinforce your own planets\n(the white ones).\n\nThe number of ships starting from a planet depends on the number of ships being\nstationed there and the current fleet strength setting. In the beginning the\nstrength is set to 50%. That means that half of the ships on each selected \nplanet will take off when you order them to move. You can choose other\nstrength settings by pressing the number keys (1 -\u003e 10%, 9 -\u003e 90%, 0-\u003e100%).\nIf you press the 's' key you are in single ship mode. This means that on each\nmove order one ship leaves from the selected planets (there has to be at least\none stationed, though).\n\nBesides setting the strength to certain values you can lower or higher the\nstrength by using the mouse wheel. Below 10% comes the single ship mode,\nwhen requesting to lower the strength it switches to 100%. The same happens in\nthe reverse order when you increase the strength and are at 100%.\n\nNew ships are continuisly built on the planets (and moons) you own. Bigger\nplanets usually built ships faster than smaller ones.\n\nShips stationing at a planet or moon are automatically defending it. The rule\nis simple: One defending ship destroys one attacking ships and vice versa. A\nplanet or moon defended by N ships can only be conquered by at least N + 1\nships.\n\nOther options\n-------------\n\nYou can toggle displaying of enemy ships by pressing the 'e' key.\n\nIf you see yourself losing and want to retry, press 'r'. If you have won instead\npress 'n' to start the next round.\n\nPress 'f' to switch between fullscreen and windowed mode. In windowed mode you\nneed to make sure that the mouse cannot leave the game's window. Press 'g' to\nactivate input grabbing and press it again if you want to release the input.\n\nTo pause the game just press ESC to open the menus. Pressing ESC again puts you\nback into the action.\n\nCommand line options\n--------------------\n\nStart the game with qonk \u003cnumberOfPlanets\u003e \u003cnumberOfComputerPlayers\u003e to run a\ngame with such a universe.\n\nConfig file\n-----------\n\nOn GNU/Linux and other POSIX-like systems a config file is written in your\nhome directory at .qonk/qonk.config.\n\nThe format is LISP-like (you remember it from SuperTuxKart probably :) ).\n\nDevelopment\n-----------\n\nPlans are there to add a single-computer multiplayer mode. Feel free to\ncontact the development team via the mailing-list.\n\nIssues\n------\n- You cannot select ships which are already in the vasts of space.\n\nHomepage\n--------\n\nhttp://qonk.sourceforge.net\n\nProject page\n-------------\n\nhttp://sourceforge.net/projects/qonk\n\nLicense\n-------\n\nThis game is free software released under the GNU General Public License 2\nor, at your option, any later version.
