Zoom is a Z-Machine, which means that it plays text adventure games
written in ZCode. The original games were written by a company called
'Infocom' in the 80's. It is designed to run under X11.
Eboard is a GTK+ chess interface. It provides a chess board
interface to ICS (Internet Chess Servers) like FICS and chessd,
and to chess engines like GNU Chess, Sjeng and Crafty.
- added easy and hard difficulty settings
- added options for sound
- added option for auto pause (which makes the game stop when the window
loses focus -- note that it always pauses when minimized regardless of
this setting).
- added fullscreen option
- fixed busy waits in dialog.c
- code cleanup
user modifiable files (like score, bone and save files). Add
pkg/INSTALL and pkg/DEINSTALL to manage them.
Also, sync the installation with the way zangband does it.
Instead of "No", specify that the license is unclear for distribution
rights on CDROM.
MAKE_FLAGS/ALL_TARGET
- rename patches
- store the score file in /var/games instead of ${PREFIX}/lib/connect4
- add proper INSTALL/DEINSTALL scripts to setup the score file and to
remind to remove it on deinstallation.
Heroes is similar to the "Tron" and "Nibbles" games of yore, but
includes many graphical improvements and new game features. In
it, you must maneuver a small vehicle around a world and collect
powerups while avoiding obstacles.
Flavors:
sdl - build with the Simple DirectMedia Layer library
and SDL_mixer for the sound interface
ggi - build with the Generic Graphics Library
no sound support
