0.89f |
A lunar-lander-ish console game where you try to carry a heavy object. |
Interesting, maybe, to people looking for old C64 games which they cannot live without. Thrust is a 320x200 GGI/svgalib/X game sort of like the classic Lunar Lander-style game only the object is to pick up some heavy object from the bottom of the screen, while dodging what look like shooting chairs and the canyon floor. |

3.3.0.1 |
A very good Boulderdash type game with high quality graphics and stereo sound. |
<p>Rocks 'n' Diamonds is a Boulderd*sh game for X11 with more than just the falling rocks and diamonds of its namesake. The object is still to collect all the diamonds (and emeralds), then get to the exit before time runs out. But your character must make use of bombs, spaceships, and many other elements in order to fill his quota of jewels. It is very customizable: users can create their own graphics, sounds and elements, so that modpacks can be created which create an entirely different flavour of the same game. This was written by the same person who wrote <a href="/show?mirrormagic%20ii">MirrorMagic</a>, and the graphics are of high quality, as are the musical soundtrack and sound effects.

1.4 |
A unique action game for X or SVGAlib featuring a bouncy yellow ball. |
An action game for Linux console (320x200 or 640x480) or X. You're a yellow beach ball with eyes, and your mission is to bounce the little red balls off the edge of the screen while trying not to get bounced off yourself. The enemy balls seem deviously intelligent as they team up to bounce you off the board. Version 1.2 adds client/server network support; play it head to head on a few networked Linux boxes! |
