Hi, my first post!
Liquid War 5 http://www.ufoot.org/liquidwar can now be found in Extras-devel.
This is a multiplayer wargame created by Christian Mauduit. In this game you control an army of "liquid" and the object is to "eat" your opponent(s). Also see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_War.

Here are some screenshots:

This is my first attempt at packaging so not sure if everything is correct, but it seems to work ok.

Known bugs:
  • No sound
  • Cannot switch to other applications while in fullscreen mode, sometimes the menu icon displays in the top left corner but you are unable to "click" it
  • Game runs slowly but is acceptable if in Options->Rules, Cursor is set to x3
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions that would be great.

Controls:
  • Arrow keys to move cursor, your liquid army follows this
  • "q" go back to menu when in-game
  • "e" pause game
  • "r" toggle wave effect
  • "t" show fps
  • "y" show rounds/second
  • "u" show % cpu time on game logic
  • "i" show % cpu time displaying game
  • "o" save each displayed frame as a bitmap to directory where game launched from (for making videos, etc - only works when liquidwar is launched via command line /opt/maemo/usr/games/liquidwar)

Enjoy!
