NAME
       lincity-ng - City simulator game	with polished graphics

SYNOPSIS
       lincity-ng [options]

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page	documents briefly the usage of lincity-ng

       lincity-ng  is  a   City	Simulation Game. It is a polished and improved
       version of the old LinCity game:	You are	required to build and maintain
       a city. You must	feed, house, provide jobs and  goods  for  your	 resi-
       dents.  You  can	build a	sustainable economy with the help of renewable
       energy and recycling, or	you can	go for broke and build rockets to  es-
       cape  from  a  pollution	ridden and resource starved planet, it's up to
       you. Due	to the finite resources	available in any one  place,  this  is
       not a game that you can leave for long periods of time.

       This  game  is similar to the commercial	simulation game	with a similar
       name.

OPTIONS
       These programs follow the usual GNU command line	syntax,	with long  op-
       tions starting with two dashes (`-').  A	summary	of options is included
       below.

       -h, --help
	      Show summary of options.

       -v, --version
	      Show version of program.

       -g, --gl

UPGRADE	from 1.x to 2.x
       A  new  format  for saved games is used since 2.0, but old games	can be
       imported	and automagically converted. Just copy $HOME/.lincity/*	  (old
       location	for lincity and	lincity-ng 1.x)	to $HOME/.lincity-ng/ (new lo-
       cation since 2.0).

	  cp -a	~/.lincity/* ~/.lincity-ng/

       At the start of the game, one message will popup	 to  remind  you  have
       some changes to do in your city.
