Pingus needs documentation #20

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Pingus currently does not really have proper documentation and it's man-page is 
rather useless. This should be fixed.

1) Write a better man-page (should probably wait to 0.8 options are final)

2) Write documentation on the actions and how to play the game in general

3) Write documentation on how to create levels, levelsets and island. We 
already have a tutorial for that, but it's completely out of date:

The animated PNGs are plain old PNGs with each frame side by side, an 
accompanying .sprite files then defines the animation speed, number of frames 
and offset. Some Gimp scripts to flatten and unflatten the PNGs are available 
in this git repository:

git clone https://code.google.com/p/pingus.gimp/

The .sprite files can be created with a simple text editor.
