Bug#417805: RFA: chromium -- Fast paced, arcade-style, scrolling space shooter
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I request an adopter for the chromium package. The game is dead upstrem,
but clearly still has a large set of users. It has recently been discovered
that some of the music is non-free and some of the sounds are
non-distributable. The issues are discussed in #385115. However, a
slightly stripped version should fit happily in contrib/non-free. Also, I
already received one email of someone offering some replacements audio files
(will forward this to the new maintainer). There are a few other small bugs
(with patches) that also need to be addressed (although I'm not convinced why
the patch in #411614 solves the problem).
The package description is:
Chromium is a top down fast paced high action scrolling space shooter
which uses the SDL libs. In this game you are the captain of the
cargo ship Chromium B.S.U., and responsible for
delivering supplies to our troops on the front line. Your ship
has a small fleet of robotic fighters which you control from the
relative safety of the Chromium vessel.
