+Dodge Balls
+-----------
+
+Evade the balls and get to the target!  Dodge Balls is a simple puzzle
+game with obstacle courses consisting of moving balls.
+
+The classic game is a liberated remake of a 2007 game, Dodgeball v3.0,
+by the same author.  It features 10 levels, each harder than the last.
+
+How to Play
+-----------
+
+Move your character (a smiley face in the classic game) through the
+obstacle course to reach the target (a star in the classic game).  If
+you are hit by a ball, the level is restarted.
+
+Controls
+--------
+
+Up:    Move up
+Down:  Move down
+Left:  Move left
+Right: Move right
+...
+
+Hints
+-----
+
+Use the map to your advantage.  You can go through walls that appear to
+be hollow.  Try to anticipate where balls will be.  Remember that they
+bounce off walls in the opposite direction.  To stop, move against a
+wall.
