* Package name : kuiper-ranger Version : 2.6.15 Upstream Contact: Curt McDowell <gamer@fishlet.com> * URL : https://github.com/curtmcd/KuiperRanger * License : GPL-3.0+ Programming Lang: C++ Description : Space-based vector arcade game - shoot rocks and flying saucers Kuiper Ranger is a faithful implementation of a classic vector arcade game in which your ship shoots down rocks and flying saucers to gain points. This high-quality game was developed in C++ using the SDL2 platform-independent graphics and sound library SDL2 (supporting X11 and Wayland). I have already ported it to Windows and published it on the Microsoft Store. My goal now is to publish it to Debian so that it can filter down to various Linux distros for people to enjoy. I am looking for a sponsor to help me check it out and guide it into the repository. I will then continue to maintain it. There are several ways to view the game in its current state: 1. Clone the repo https://github.com/curtmcd/KuiperRanger and run "make" 2. Install test package from https://www.fishlet.com/data/kuiper-ranger_2.6-1_amd64.deb 3. Play the on-line (wasm) version at https://www.fishlet.com/kuiper-ranger/ 4. Install the version for Windows 10/11 from the Microsoft Store
This looks so cute and might be used to replace some other much similar game in Debian that would be in a derelict state. (ie: no upstream, relying on SDL1) I cannot remember the name right now. I had a Vectrex Le mar. 21 avr. 2026 à 02:21, Curt McDowell <gamer@fishlet.com> a écrit :
