-plomlompom tries to build his own RogueLike
\ No newline at end of file
+plomlompom tries to build his own roguelike. Currently, it doesn't do
+much interesting, apart from managing some ncurses windows in a bizarre
+fashion. You can move around a player and meet a random number enemies;
+they will occasionally hit you on contact, but without consequence to
+you: The player has no hitpoints so far. Enemies have 5 hitpoints at
+start and disappear if their hitpoints reach 0. The map gets generated
+randomly, too. There is only one save file (named "savefile"), and it
+gets overwritten each new turn. To start over with a new world, delete
+it.
+

+Replay game recording
+---------------------
+
+Run "./roguelike -s" to watch a recording of the current game from the
+beginning. Hit the "next turn / wait" key to increment turns. Keys to
+manage windows, scroll on the map and quit the program are active; keys
+to perform player actions are inactive. Append a number to the -s option
+(like "-s100") to start the recording at the respective turn number.
