Try to win land without colliding with `flyers' and `eaters' Maintained by:joerg@FreeBSD.org Port Added: unknown
Xonix is an old action game.
The purpose of the game is to move the player across the
empty region (whereby it leaves his way in a brown color
to show where it came along), and finally cut off a piece
of unfilled region by moving him back to some filled
region. If the player itself or the (unfilled yet) way
will be hit by a flyer, a life will be lost again. Once
the player's way reached another part of filled region,
the way and all adjacent unfilled regions where there is
no flyer in will be filled in turn. One level has com-
pleted as soon as 75 % of the originally unfilled area
have been filled this way.
Every level, there will be one flyer more. Every second
level, an additional player will be granted. Every fifth
level, an additional eater will be fired off.
The original xonix game has been seen somewhere on an old
PC/XT clone. This is a reimplementation from scratch,
done by Torsten Schönitz starting the project on a Macin-
tosh. The X11 support has been written by Jörg Wunsch
with the pleasant help by Alfredo Herrera Hernández.
(1) Add new variable, XFREE86_VERSION, to specify which version of XFree86
(3 or 4) to depend to when USE_XLIB is set. XFREE86_VERSION defaults to 3
for now, but adventurous users can override it in /etc/make.conf. When
XFREE86_VERSION=3, USE_XLIB will add a dependency to x11/XFree86; when it
is set to 4, the dependency will be to x11/XFree86-4-libraries. When
XFREE86_VERSION=4, the PKG_IGNORE_DEPENDS and ALWAYS_BUILD_DEPENDS hacks
to avoid messing with XFree86 are turned off.
