Bug#444144: RFP: adanaxisgpl - FPS game in 4 spatial dimensions
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
* Package name : adanaxisgpl
Version : 1.2.0
Upstream Author : Andy Southgate <andy.southgate@mushware.com>

* License : GPL
Description :
Adanaxis is probably the first real time shooter in four spatial
dimensions (so that's four not including time). Information and reviews
can be found at:

This is the GPL version of the full commercial game. It's stripped of
material that can't be GPL'd, but it's not a demo - it does contain all of
the levels and has no artificial limitations.
Much of the packaging work is already done. You can unpack the tarball
and type ./configure ; make debian-release (or use dpkg-buildpackage
directly) and, with a bit of luck, get a .deb at the end. The code is
64-bit and big/littleendian clean. The binary .debs built for the
commercial release are already available at mushware.com/x11 if you'd like
to take a look.
I am the upstream developer and available to support the packager, modify
the upstream, etc. You will need sound and hardware-accelerated 3D to
meaningfully test the build, and it does take about 15 minutes to compile
on a modern single core. Language is C++ and ruby.
