NAME

       bouncy - game for kids

SYNOPSIS

       bouncy

DESCRIPTION

       You  play  Bouncy  the  Hungry  Rabbit.  You’re  in a garden with yummy
       veggies and a farmer who’s not keen on you eating them.  You  can  hide
       (and move around) under the ground.

       Bouncy was written so it could be enjoyed by the author’s daughter, who
       was about to turn 3, and by older gamers. Hence it’s not a violent game
       and "easy" is really, really easy, and "hard" is challenging.

USAGE

       You  are  a  hungry rabbit. Your mission is to eat food to complete the
       level.

       CONTROLS:
         arrows   - move around
         "e"      - eat whatever is in front of you
         "d"      - dig into the ground (hold to go underground)
                    also, when underground, "d"ig to surface
         escape   - quit

       Dig for long enough and you’ll go into  the  hole.  Move  around  under
       ground  -  fences no longer stop you and the farmer can’t see you. Hold
       "d" again to surface.
