The gameplay consists of researching and developing new technology with
which to conquer your enemies, from rocks and sticks to nuclear weapons and
spaceships. You can advance through ten different ages, from the stone age
to the future. There are 28 different maps to play through.

using OpenGL, GLUT, and optionally GTK and SDL_mixer. It features a variety
of powerups, taunting aliens, 3D textured asteroids, face-melting sound effects,
and infinite playability.
Controls
--------
Use the left and right arrows to turn the ship, x to accelerate, and z to
shoot. Pressing p will pause the game, f toggles fullscreen mode, and m mutes
and unmutes the audio. There's also a right-click menu if you forget anything.
Gameplay
--------
I'm not going to explain how to play Asteroids. I will mention that the
wireframe octahedra that sometimes drift across the screen are powerups. To
collect the powerups, run over them; or you can shoot them for bonus points
(if you don't want the benefit of the powerup). You'll have to play the game
to figure out the different powerup types.

Collect the pills and carrots while avoiding the ghosts! Cute and colourful!
Basically, it's pacman with a fast food twist. You have to get the pills,
pacman style, while also collecting the carrots that move around the mazes.
There are also different styles of gates to make things trickier. These are:
* Red and White - only the ghosts can cross them
* Blue and White - only hannah can cross them
* Wooden gates - both hannah and the ghosts can cross, but only passing from
below to above
* Red prison door things - need hannah to get the red key to open
There are some command line switches you can use:
-fullscreen will put the game in fullscreen mode
-map X will start the game on level X

Chocolate Doom is a port of ID Software's Doom, Doom II, and Final Doom to
modern operating systems that aims to be as compatible with the original DOS

It's a program that displays a badly made ASCII-art animation to
punish you for your typing error - and after that magically launches
the command you meant to launch.
The code is available under an MIT-like license on github - though
of course anybody can write his or her own version in a couple of
minutes.
This whole thing is heavily inspired by sl, which displays a steam
locomotive. However, gti is actually nicer than sl as it at least
executes git after the animation. :-)

Note that this game involves a large and varied word list,

In this game you are pilot of a small space ship and have to navigate it

But besides gravity there are many other difficulties you have to master.
The game is strongly influenced by some classical cave flyers from
the C64 and Amiga era such as "Space Taxi" or "Gravity Force".
But Moagg is supposed to be more than just a clone of these games.

objects, and so is capable of posing quite complex puzzles.
This clone is written by Colin Phipps <cph@moria.org.uk> in Python and uses

work on any system with working Python and pygtk. It works on Windows as well,
