Hey, guys. It would be great if we had this nice little game on our tablets... It is open source and there is already a Linux port so I think it would not be hard to compile. If I was a developer I would do it but I am not - I am studying construction engineering. Anyway here is the link to the game:

All kinds of copyright violations going on there, though. It's not maemo extras capable.

That said, it looks fun.

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?

If any of you enjoy making bitmap graphics, this could be legal with new graphics (derivative even) and a different name (not including Mario(tm))

For the majority of N900 owners to ever know it exists it does.

No, it's quite different, actually. You'll not find this game distributed from any repositories because it violates copyrights.

I'm not worried about it, i'm just explaining the facts on why many devs won't want to spend time on it because it may not be clear to some who want to see it available.

Unless someone steps forward willing to create new artwork, this isn't going to end up on many N900s.

Since the graphics and name would have to be changed anyway, this would be an opportunity for someone to make a Maemo-themed game...

*cough*

But yes it will never be in extras. in this case it's someone else's repo. not sure if it will work on n900 due to changes between maemo OS.
