|GALAXIS for UNIX
+
|
 
+
|
Lifeboats from a crippled interstellar liner are adrift in a
+
starfield.  To find them, you can place probes that look in all
+
eight compass directions and tell you how many lifeboats they see.
+
If you drop a probe directly on a lifeboat it will be revealed
+
immediately. Your objective: find the lifeboats as quickly as
+
possible, before the stranded passengers run out of oxygen!
+
 
+
This is a UNIX-hosted, curses-based clone of the nifty little
+
Macintosh freeware game Galaxis. It doesn't have the super-simple,
+
point-and-click interface of the original, but compensates by
+
automating away some of the game's simpler deductions.

|galaxyhack
|GalaxyHack allows you to design a fleet of spaceships which can then be tested
+
|
in AI script based battles against fleets designed by other players. Though
+
|
battles take place in real time, the strategy comes before hand, both in
+
writing short AI scripts in a simple scripting language, and also in the set
+
up and selection of your fleet. You don't actually have any control over your
+
units at all mid-battle, but rather use the time to see where the set up of
+
your fleets is working, where your fleets' weaknesses lie and changes are
+
needed, and perhaps also to learn from the strategy of your opponent.
+
 
+
The game revolves around very large capital ships, from which smaller ships
+
are launched. To win a battle you must destroy of all of your opponent's
+
capital ships before they destroy yours.
+
 
+
There can be hundreds of units in any one battle, but there is no harvesting,
+
resource management or base building.

|gemdropx
 
|gemdropx
|"Gem Drop X" is an interesting one-player puzzle game using the
+
|
Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) libraries.
+
|
 
+
It is a direct port of "Gem Drop," an Atari 8-bit game written in Action!
+
(a very fast C- and Pascal-like compiled language for the Atari).
+
 
+
It was originally ported to X11, using SDL for sound and music.
+
Eventually, the Xlib graphics calls were removed and replaced with
+
SDL calls.
+
 
+
The concept of the game "Gem Drop" is based on an arcade game for the
+
NeoGeo system called "Magical Drop III" by SNK.
+
 
+
If you're familiar with games like Jewels, Klax, Bust-A-Move or Tetris,
+
this game is similar to them all.  I consider it closest to Klax.
+
Some people have compared it to "Tetris meets Space Invaders."

|genact
 
|genact
|genact is a nonsense terminal activity generator.
+
|
 
+
|
It is described in the following way by its authors:
+
 
+
Pretend to be busy or waiting for your computer when you should actually be
+
doing real work! Impress people with your insane multitasking skills. Just
+
open a few instances of genact and watch the show. genact has multiple scenes
+
that pretend to be doing something exciting or useful when in reality nothing
+
is happening at all.
+
 
+
genact can load modules, which produce different activity. Currently, it
+
comes with the following set of modules: bootlog, cargo, cc, composer,
+
cryptomining, simcity, download, memdump, kernel_compile, weblog.

|glbsp
 
|glbsp
|glBSP is a node builder specially designed to be used with OpenGL
+
|
ports of the DOOM game engine. It adheres to the "GL-Friendly Nodes"
+
|
specification, which means it adds some new special nodes to a WAD
+
file that makes it very easy (and fast !) for an OpenGL DOOM engine to
+
compute the polygons needed for drawing the levels.
+
There are many DOOM ports that understand the GL Nodes which glBSP
+
creates, including: EDGE, the Doomsday engine (JDOOM), Doom3D, PrBoom,
+
and Vavoom.
