Sopwith SDL Simon Howard (SDL port) www 1.7.1 SDL port of the classic DOS game Sopwith (From the Sopwith FAQ):<br> Sopwith and its much-improved successor, Sopwith 2, is a CGA game designed for both single player play, and also equipped to handle up to 8 players in multiplayer mode (4 human, 4 computer). It is a side-scrolling biplane action game involving two sides - cyan and magenta. The object of the game in single-player is to destroy all of the enemy buildings and vehicles, either by shooting, bombing, or colliding with them. To stop you, the enemy has deployed planes to shoot you down and buildings that shoot anti-aircraft fire at you. Each level ends when all the enemy buildings and vehicles are destroyed, and is followed by a faster and more difficult level with the same map. action free img on on on off on on 2002-10-04 2 2002-10-04 23:12:04 -1 SDL 2002-10-27 14:23:34 on

Firepower 0.84 A multiplayer tank game designed for play over a dialup internet connection A multiplayer tank game which is playable over the Internet by up to 32 players. It reminds me of Bolo for the Mac, but is not related to it. The game is like capture the flag, but you can harvest trees, build walls and bridges, and lay mines to hinder the opposing team. It's designed to be perfectly playable over a 14.4k SLIP/PPP connection to the Internet. action free img off on off off on on 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 16:05:42 14 ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/games/multiplayer/xfirepower-0.84.tar.gz 2001-10-12 01:20:03 off

This is an excellent multiplayer action game. It's sort of like a wireframe Maelstrom, only you can play against many other people either on your own or as a team. There's a large variety of goodies like mines, lasers, multiple shots, and cloaking devices. Requires a fast net connection and preferably an accelerated video card. action free img on on off off on on 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 23:14:59 14 ftp://ftp.xpilot.org/pub/ 2002-10-29 12:44:54 on

Quake id Software www ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/source/q1source.zip Download the GPL'ed source to Quake ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/idgames/idstuff/source/q1source.zip Alternate download site for Quake source id Software's venerable first true 3d game. This is the Linux version of Quake. You'll need to grab the PAK file from the DOS distribution in order to play it. Don't even think of playing it on anything but a Pentium or a really fast 486 (i.e., something faster than mine). There's also a port to SVGAlib which doesn't require X. If you have a 3Dfx accelerator card, check out GL Quake. As for the looks, well, it looks like Quake. If you haven't seen it yet, do so now. The game itself is your basic kill-them-before-they-kill-you scenario. But you'll probably have a lot of fun anyway. action shareware img on on on on on on 1998-09-01 3 1998-11-02 17:27:16 14 ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/unsup www The Linux Quake HOWTO 2002-11-23 19:48:22 on
