Has anyone tried it with Ubuntu?

Re: Neverball a game that deserves to be experienced with an accelerometer
 
I've played it on Debian and Ubuntu throughout the years. It was much more playable on my 21 inch screen than my 42 inch that I have now.

Only because when the entire world is tilting like that in front of your face, you tend to want to firehose your lunch all over the place!

Performance is awesome though, well at least on nvidia cards, I don't think I've ever tried it on an ATI or intel card, but I don't think it uses any high level shaders or anything, so should work just as well there.

From playing Bounce, I don't see how the N900 couldn't handle it very well.

Speaking of which, why would they have it all open source, then have a closed source port to OpenGL ES? I personally blame Apple!

Let's get this ported!

+1 for that - it's the perfect game for the n900

Neverball is coming :)
Blog post with video

I personally don't find that the accelerometer input is the best way to control the game, but maybe it's just me who's not skilled enough. :)

There are Neverball and Neverputt in extras-devel. Beware though:
Code:
~ $ /opt/maemo/usr/games/neverball
Font 'ttf/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf' doesn't exist, trying default font.
Could not load font 'ttf/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf'.
Segmentation fault
~ $ /opt/maemo/usr/games/neverput 
-sh: /opt/maemo/usr/games/neverput: not found
~ $ /opt/maemo/usr/games/neverputt
Font 'ttf/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf' doesn't exist, trying default font.
Could not load font 'ttf/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf'.
