Great, thanks I did not do anything special with the port so feel free to take full credit... thanks for the gesture though.

I have updated first post to link to the hex-a-hop project page you linked as the preferred method for install. I've also removed it from my repo to avoid potential confusion.

Thanks! No doubt many more people will be able to find and play it because of your efforts.

I'm not sure about the .mod file format, perhaps you can install the package called 'file' to see if it can detect its type (it is a file type guesser). I have a build on my repo and i think free has a build in his. Or run 'file' on desktop from x86 linux repo. -- Or wait it might be this Amiga audio format which maemo probably does not have a package to support.

I don't think you should waste time with sound effects.

@pipeline:

.mod, .xm, .s3m are sampled module formats. For instance Star Control 2 used mods at the time. No need for file.

Your URL is right

Libmikmod supports it.

Having been playing this game for about a year on my Sony Ericsson P1 it's great to see it transferred to the big screen! Many thanks.

There's no sound onthe P1 either but I must say I don't miss it. What would you get? A cute jingle that soon became annoying and you switched off plus the clip clop of her feet

Great game, works awesome on my N810!

where are the stored games stored? I'm considering redoing my SD card and don't relish loosing my progress on the game. Where and what files should I back up so that when I get my shiney new SD Boot going, I can continue where I left off in the game?

There's a directory .hex-a-hop in your home directory (note leading dot), with a file 'save1.dat' (at least on my system). That's probably the thing.

Thanks for porting, what a great game!
I'm having trouble with arcade games because of the d-pad on the n810, but this one is just right!
