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.

XRally is a Linux clone of the classic Rally X arcade game. For those who don't know, in Rally X you control a blue (good) car, that has to collect yellow flags around a maze-like map, while avoiding the red (bad) cars. In order to help himself, the blue car can use clouds of smoke through the maze. If a enemy touch any of these clouds, it stops for a while. The enemy cars can also crash one with the other, what gives you some extra time. XRally is written in C using only the basic Xlib and Xpm libraries. It's a project aimed mainly at newbie X11/Game programmers like me (but any experienced help is appreciated! :) )

XVmines is a simple minesweeper game for X Window System. xvmines creates a rectangle on the screen, divided into equally sized cells. Each cell may contain a mine (hence the name xvmines), contain a number indicating the number of mines present in the 8-neighboring cells or be empty. Initially, all cells are covered with tiles. A tile can be removed, uncovering the cell below, by clicking the left mouse button on it. In addition, a cell can be marked as containing a mine by clicking the right mouse button on it. Note however that marking a cell as containing a mine does not necessarily mean that the cell really contains a mine! Clicking the middle mouse button on a tile, marks it with a question mark, acting as a reminder mechanism. The user can use the numbers in the uncovered cells to find (or sometimes guess ...) which cells contain mines and which do not. A game ends when all cells not containing mines have been uncovered and all cells containing mines have been marked, or when a cell containing a mine is uncovered.
