I found no link to xjump website, so I'm using the BTS for this.  It
could be very nice if xjump had two players support.  This could work
that way: two characters must jump so that the last one to survive is
the winner.  So you have to survive, but also to jump faster than the
opponent.  So you score one point, and game continue until one player
decides to stop.

I do not have time to hack this, but I would be very grateful if
upstream could add this must-have feature. :-)

Cheers,
Benjamin

I added this 2 players mode two years ago. It's not exactly what you
requested, but that's a beginning.

Ciao,

Thanks a lot.  This is nearly what I was looking for.  Will this patch
be included in upstream ?

There is not too much things to add to get a real deathmatch-like
game: once a player is on top of the screen, let the screen scroll
upwards, which will certainly cause the other player to die if he's
too low ... nice. :-)

Cheers,
Benjamin

This bug showed up as Bug of the Day[1] and I forwarded the issue upstream.

Kind regards
