Finally you can taste elaborate shoot-em-up action in 16 glorious colors on your plain old text terminal. You never thought that ASCII letters are capable of network-game action in such a massive manner.

a ball and paddles. The object is to hit the ball and get it in the other player's goal. Use your paddle to deflect the ball and keep it from getting in your goal.

The name is a bastardization of the word Bombs (and you should pronounce it however you want).

54321 takes five classic two-dimensional puzzle games and extends them into three and four dimensions. For more information, see the help within the game.

54321 was created for the 1mb SDL Game Programming Contest sponsored by: Linux Journal (http://www.linuxjournal.com/), Loki Software (http://www.lokigames.com/), and No Starch Press (http://www.nostarch.com/).

a Teeworlds modification with a unique cooperative gameplay. Help each other play through custom maps with up to 64 players, compete against the best in international tournaments, design your own maps, or run your own server. The official servers are located in Germany, Poland, Russia, Turkey, Iran, USA, Canada, China, Korea, Japan, Singapore, Chile, Brazil, Argentina, South Africa and Australia. All ranks made on official servers are available worldwide and you can collect points!

commercially available on CD. It seems to run only under x86.

You will need the CD, this port only helps you install and deinstall the game and get it to run under FreeBSD.

The principal differences between KnightCap and other chess programs are:

• KnightCap has an optional fully rendered 3D interface, giving a feel much more like an "over the board" game.
• KnightCap was developed to run on a parallel distributed memory machine, although it also runs on normal Unix boxes.
• KnightCap does not have an opening book---instead it keeps a file (brain.dat) of losing moves and inserts them in the hash table at the start of each search. At present it has about 1500 entries, and this makes it a pretty competitive opening player.
• KnightCap learns the parameters of its evaluation function as it plays. The most dramatic example of how this helps is an experiment we conducted on FICS in which KnightCap learnt from a 1650 player to a 2100 player in just 300 games. See http://cs.anu.edu.au/people/Lex.Weaver/pub_sem/publications knightcap.pdf for more info on its learning algorithm.

play levels from all classic-era Tomb Raider games (TR 1-5) and custom TRLE levels. The project does not use any old Tomb Raider source code, because all attempts to retrieve sources from Eidos / Core were in vain.

an old church in which to hide, not knowing that beneath its ruins lay buried an ancient evil.

A style close to Spectrum ZX, with its dark background and bright colors, proper fit with the story, because it does look old and somewhat horrifying. Also, the gameplay is direclty inspired by Manic Miner and Jet Set Willy.

vaguely in the style of similar games for the Commodore+4. The game is intended to show young people (I'm writing it for my son's birthday) all the cool games they missed.

DirectMedia Layer library. This allows Abuse to run at screen depths greater than 8bpp as well as fullscreen.

Abuse-SDL has the following extra features over the original Abuse:

• Run at any screen depth from 8bpp to 32bpp.
• Run fullscreen or in a window.
• Lock the mouse to the window.
• Mousewheel support for changing weapons.
• Stereo sound.

ones available for Windows(tm) but with a number of enhancements.

The latest version includes clones of freecell, golf, mastermind, merlin, minesweeper, pegged, solitaire, taipei (with editor!), and thornq (by Martin Thornquist).

design objective was to provide source code that could be easily compiled and executed on a wide variety of platforms. To that end, acm is written entirely in C, exploiting the programming features of Unix, X11, and the BSD socket interface.

Players engage in air to air combat against one another using heat seeking missiles and cannons.

ACM is implemented as two programs. The first, named "acm", is a small program that, when invoked, starts a flight session on a given workstation. The second component, named "acms", is a server process that manages the multiplayer environment. It also manages the flight simulation and display management that is required. Most players will prefer to run the acms process on a back-end server system on their local area network. Players at client workstations can then invoke the acm program to begin play.

As a loyal servant of the elven Lady Silverhair, you arrive at the remote trading post of Waste's Edge, where she is engaged in negotiations with the dwarish merchant Bjarn Fingolson. But not all is well at Waste's Edge, and soon you are confronted with circumstances that are about to destroy your mistress' high reputation. And you are the only one to avert this ...

role playing game for various operating systems.

The project's goals are the creation of an engine (currently going by the codename adonthell), a set of tools and an actual, playable game driven by that engine and built with those tools.

platform independent log format (meta log format), and generates meaningful (and very pretty!) stats and ranking pages in HTML form. Overall features:

• Split into two executables to make the code more modular (independent of specific games/mod). This also makes updates quicker and less prone to new bugs.
• Modules are command line driven, giving you the maximum control of the the executables, without having to deal with klutzy platform dependent interfaces. This makes it possible to control the modules via batch files or scripts. Ideal for automating calls.
• HTML output is eatable by any browser with frames. Since plain HTML code is generated, any user should be able to view the output.
• Provides an UnrealScript module (aeonsdmmod.u) that will generate extra log info, since Unreal does not provide any frag obituaries by default.
