Remember to vote.
Downfall is a unique 2 player game. 'Snow' will fall from the sky and your job is to prevent it from piling up to the point where it reaches the top of your screen. This can be done by erasing and drawing lines using the cursor - controlled by the keyboard. Channeling your snow into the hole at the bottom will make your oponents screen move up - making their snow move nearer the top of their screen.
If snow falls on the ground it will turn to ice - this snow cannot be moved so is wasted.

OPTIONS
Clicking options in the File menu will show an options window. The options settings will be stored so that they'll be the same after closing and re-opening the program. To reset the options to the defaults, delete the Downfall.ini file from the C:\Windows folder.
Game Speed : Changing this changes the speed of the snow and cursors. It will be more difficult to control the cursor with high game speed.
Screen Elevation rate : This controls how many snow flakes must fall through the hole to make the oponents screen move up by 1 pixel.
Number of Random Surfaces : This controls how many random lines there are at the beginning of the game. It will not take effect until a new game is started.
Sabotage : When sabotage is on you'll be able to draw and erase on the oponents screen. When sabotage is off this will be disabled.
Multi-coloured : make the snow change colour as it falls when turned on or just white when turned off.
Customize Controls : Allows you to change the controls for the players. Double click on one of the grid cells and then press the key you want for that control.
