openxcom available on Slackonly, which now rates a mention in pkgs.org.

Also check out dwarffortress. Not able to work out some of the fractal images being generated. Do not know if program working correctly, or has to be tweaked, or whether the pc lacks the memory and the power to represent the worlds correctly. Certainly not been able to make out any animal fractal shapes. Need input from someone who knows the game.

I love Battle for Wesnoth, and Supertuxkart. Supertux 2 is a sidescroller like the Super Mario series. Secret Maryo Chronicles is pretty nice too. Flare is an isometric fantasy similar to Diablo and is pretty cool but short. Sdl-ball is nice. Not to mention emulators like retroarch, pcsx, mednafen, etc. Those are from Ubuntu repos mostly. Once I figure out how to turn them into modules, I'll be sure to share. :good:

Still a good thread. It might need some updating of some posts.
