correctness while playing. The game stores your current notes and
answers, so that you can pick up where you left off the next time you
play.

coming your way, that means they want to give you work!

addictive arena shooter gameplay which is all spawned and driven
by the community itself. Xonotic is a direct successor of the Nexuiz

Xtet42 is a one or two player version of T*tris. The game was written
by Hugo Eide Gunnarsen in 1991. The game is very fun and very
addictive. It is also astonishingly pretty to be an old X11-game.
In january 1999 I picked up the code to get rid of a few bugs and
limitations that annoyed me. I also converted the build-mechanism to
GNU autoconf.
The result is xtet42-2.21.
