Frogatto Dev here; I want to throw a shout-out to PH5 for being awesome and doing the maemo port.
@AndyTitan: that problem should be fixed in trunk.
We'd introduced a new fixed-point variable system into our scripting language, and it didn't play nice with the min()/max() functions. We've since fixed that, and will probably have another update out in the vaguely near future. Possibly a couple weeks, since I don't think there are any blockers.
We use a "clever" trick to force people to learn the controls on the titlescreen; the titlescreen basically is the first of two tutorial levels, and has about 6 sentences of text that explain how to play. What we figure is that people will be confused for a moment, and in their confusion, will look around at the very sparse screen; and they'll see, front and center, the text describing how to play the whole game. They can sit there on the titlescreen, and figure out the controls (with no consequences), and with the explanation right above them.
It's kind of a novel approach, and we're gonna lose a certain tiny percentage of mouth-breathing idiots who get impatient/refuse-to-read/throw-a-tantrum because the game isn't an exact clone of everything they've ever played before... but frankly, with that kind of attitude, these same people would inevitably get hung up on tons of other stuff in the game. Anything that's remotely interesting, innovative, or anything that requires complex thought at all. So these people are kind of a lost cause.

already a year I want to play, but as in previous and in the current version is simply impossible to play.
I am very like this game, but in truth it is simply impossible to play. I hope you drank it, and we can enjoy a full port frogato.

There is a new version (1.1.1-maemo2) in extras-devel and extras-testing now, which is rebased onto the proper 1.1.1 version (as tagged on github.com). With this version, AndyTitan's save.cfg doesn't crash for me, so maybe the fixed point error was introduced later. I've also removed some songs from the music package that I believe are not used at all.
Please check if there are problems with this one, and vote for it to enter extras here and here.
Thanks to AndyTitan for the detailed problem description and to Jetrel for the upcoming solution
