Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Yao Wei <mwei@lxde.org> * Package name : raindrop Version : 0.600 Upstream Author : Diego Ahumada <diao.lzr@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/zardoru/raindrop * License : GPLv3 Programming Lang: C++ Description : Rhythm game system that supports various formats This is a rhythm game system that supports various formats, including BMS, bmson, stepmania, o2jam and osu!mania. The "vertical-scrolling rhythm game" (VSRG) genre comes from 1997, when Konami released their first Beatmania arcade. Then there are simulators trying to simulate the game mechanics. The most famous one for now is Lunatic Rave 2 (LR2 in short). However, LR2 is Windows-only freeware (?) app and can crash easily. This is another work that trying to be compatible to BMS format (though I don't know if that supports LR2 extension to BMS format), but also supports newer format called bmson for easier chart-making and faster loading. Many original works from the BMS subculture spurs and being famous and gradually becomes recognized by game studios making rhythm games by inviting the artists for creating music and game charts. Note that most of the charts are free-to-download but not DFSG free. Therefore, the charts are not included in this package. However, many players could probably know how they can get them easily :) This should be better maintained under Debian Games Team, though I am not in the team yet.
