FLUX - a rhythm dodge game
==========================

How to start: unzip the whole folder, then double-click FLUX.exe (Windows).

Controls
- Arrow keys / WASD or the mouse: move (left click = dash with the mouse)
- Space or Shift: dash (briefly invincible)
- Mouse: click through the menus, mouse wheel scrolls the song list
- R: restart the song, Esc: back
- F11: fullscreen
- In the song list press E to open the beatmap editor

Your own songs
- If you have osu!, Beat Saber (custom levels) or Geometry Dash installed, their songs show up automatically.
- .osz files (osu! beatmap packs) can be imported like .fluxmap files (drag them onto the window).
- Songs without a map are shown faded: click once to generate a map (unranked), click again to play.
- Or put mp3/ogg files into the "songs" folder next to FLUX.exe.

Sharing beatmaps (.fluxmap)
- Make a map in the editor (song list: press E).
- Right click the song -> "Export map to send (.fluxmap)". The file opens in Explorer, send it to a friend.
- To import: just double-click the .fluxmap file (after starting FLUX once),
  or drag it onto the game window / onto FLUX.exe.
- Right click also lets you delete a map or an imported song.

Difficulties: Easy, Normal, Hard, Insane.
Mods (song list, keys 1-7): NoFail, Double Time, Half Time, Sudden Death, Mirror, Shifty (the box keeps changing), Rotate (the box turns).
Character: change the color and shape of your character in Settings.
Song list: F4 = random song.
A song always has the same attacks on the same difficulty, so you can learn it.

Flux Points (FP) and leaderboards
- Every map has a star rating. Clearing it gives you Flux Points (FP): more stars and fewer hits = more FP.
- Your total FP is shown in the main menu (your best runs count, like in osu!).
- Each map has its own leaderboard (top 10) in the song list. Click an entry to watch its replay.
- Set your player name in Settings. If you send a replay to a friend, it shows up on their leaderboard with your name.

Replays
- Every run is recorded. On the results screen press W to watch it.
- Right click a song -> "Watch best replay" or "Export best replay" (.fluxreplay) to send it.
- Double-click a .fluxreplay (or drag it onto the window) to watch it. The song must be on that PC.

Song list: Ctrl+F = search, F2 = sort, F = favorite, F3 = only favorites.

Language: English by default, can be changed to Deutsch in Settings. Dark mode: Settings -> Theme.
