Description Matija "hook" Šuklje 2011-03-14 17:02:37 UTC
Very cool game somewhat similar to asteroids. It would be great to see it in Portage anytime soon-ish :]

On their forums the following dependancies are stated from Debian:
libfreetype6-dev libglew1.5-dev libjpeg62-dev libpng12-dev libsndfile1-dev libxrandr-dev libopenal-dev libfribidi-dev libtag1-dev and sfml-2.x

Which I think can translate into:
media-libs/freetype
media-libs/glew
media-libs/jpeg
media-libs/libpng
media-libs/libsndfile
x11-libs/libXrandr
media-libs/openal
dev-libs/fribidi
media-libs/taglib
>=media-libs/libsfml-2.0 ← not in portage yet!

For compiling it uses cmake and make.

Features:
- awesome 2D-graphics with an unique style and shader support
- a stunning amount of particles
- single- and multiplayer-support
- artificial intelligence using an aggro-system, which reacts differently upon varying situations and uses inter-bot communication via jobs
- many impressive weapons and specials
- customizable ships
- a very sexy GUI
- support for many different languages

To be clear libsfml-2.0 is not released yet.
Other than that the cmake build system looks clean and should work out of the box without much bending required.
