NAME

6       hex-a-hop - puzzle game based on hexagonal tiles
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Hex‐a‐hop  is  a puzzle game based on hexagonal tiles. There is no time
10       limit and no real‐time element.
11
12       The objective is simply to destroy all the  green  hexagonal  tiles  on
13       each of the 100 levels. As you progress through the game, more types of
14       tiles are introduced which make things more difficult and interesting.

USAGE

18       You can move the character around with the keys  Q,W,E,A,S,D,  or  with
19       the  numeric  keypad. Alternatively, you can use the mouse and click on
20       the tile you'd like to move to.
21
22       Use 'U', backspace or the right mouse button  to  undo  mistakes.   The
23       'Esc'  key (or middle mouse button) brings up a menu from which you can
24       restart if you get stuck.
25
26       Your goal is to break all the green tiles. You mainly do this by  jump‐
27       ing  on  them. They will crack when you land on them, and only disinte‐
28       grate when you jump off. Try not to trap yourself!
29
30       During the game, you will be given hints and instructions  on  what  to
31       do.  Use  the  cursor keys or click on the arrows to scroll through the
32       help pages. More pages will be added as you progress through the  game,
33       as new tiles will keep appearing.
34
35       You  can choose which level to attempt next from the map screen. Silver
36       levels are ones you've cleared. Black levels are ones you haven't  com‐
37       pleted yet, but are available to play.
38
39       There is no time limit and no real‐time element, so take as long as you
40       like.
