`LuxMan - A maze game for Linux'
I have uploaded LuxMan 0.26 to sunsite. This is a maze game for
Linux similar to the `Pac Man' arcade game. It uses SVGAlib (not X)
and has soundcard support. The LSM is given below.
There are two distributions:
luxman-0.26.tar.gz # Source only, requires g++ 2.5.8
# (or 2.6.2), and SVGAlib 1.12 (or 1.20)
luxman-0.26-bin.tar.gz # Statically linked binaries
These files are currently in:
sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/Incoming
But will (hopefully) be moved to:
sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/games/video
Please note: This is the first public release. Although I
consider LuxMan to be stable, I would suggest using a little
care until it has been tested a bit publicly. At the very
least, please read the `README.First' file.
Also note that you need a fairly recent (1.1.50+) kernel.
Send any comments, bug reports, etc. to:
