Hello, 
 
i wrote an Ebuild for the fantastic Space Shooter "Parsec".  
 
Website of the game: http://openparsec.sourceforge.net/ 
 
Description: 
Parsec most of all is a fast-paced space shooter, where the emphasis is more on fun and 
action than on realism. As far as game play itself is concerned, Parsec has probably more in 
common with the network game play of first person shooters like Quake than with 
sophisticated simulations like Elite.After starting up the game you simply choose a ship and 
select the galaxy you want to be playing in. You can do this in a number of ways. You can 
either select the desired galaxy in the starmap, enter stellar coordinates, choose a 
gameserver from a list of servers, or enter the DNS/IP address of a specific gameserver 
manually. (A gameserver directly corresponds to a galaxy in the Parsec universe.) 
 
The total size of the game is nearly 81MB. I added 3 fast mirror to get the file. 
At the moment i write a Bot Script for the game so Singleplayer will bring you more fun. 
 
cheers
