JOUST v5.0

JOUST 5.0 is a Lua script designed to emulate the gameplay of the 1982
Williams arcade game of the same name, using the Aleph One engine.

The controls are quite simple. The action key is the "flap" key.  The
player flies through continuous flapping. To move forward in flight,
the player must hold the primary trigger. To move back, the player
must hold the secondary trigger. Running works on the ground, but one
mustn't stay there too long. Bumping into the ceiling will bounce the
player down a little, which might be fatal or useful, depending on the
situation.

The objective of the game is to kill other players. One accomplishes
this by colliding with them. If one is higher than one's opponent
during the collision, no matter by how little or in what direction,
the opponent will die. The game's scoring is based on kills, so the
script must be hosted in an Every Man For Himself game.

Although untested, gameplay in types such as King of the Hill and Kill
the Man With the Ball, and Tag might be enjoyable.
