Wonderful flatpak game

#1 Post by Jerry3904 »

Found a flatpak that I could really use (ha!), installed with MX Package Installer using the new Flatpaks tab.

Too bad we can't set up an MX site where members could play against each other!

BTW: I'm going to suggest this come with MX-18 by default...
Production: 5.10, MX-23 Xfce, AMD FX-4130 Quad-Core, GeForce GT 630/PCIe/SSE2, 16 GB, SSD 120 GB, Data 1TB
Personal: Lenovo X1 Carbon with MX-23 Fluxbox and Windows 10
Other: Raspberry Pi 5 with MX-23 Xfce Raspberry Pi Respin

Oddly enough, it's already in Jessie and Buster, just not in the Stretch repo. So here's a non-Flatpak "native" MX 17 build: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1KDwwy ... nqRlQ4OK5l

And unfortunately on my hdpi screen I can barely see a thing. I found this with several flatpacks. As dolphin said in the video many do not follow system theming.

Ok. Going to log out of the forum and give it another try. In fact, may not go to sleep tonight.

Ha, this is fun, I shot, it went around a planet 2 times and then it came back and killed me.

Is there anyway to slow down the gameplay speed? It'd be cooler if the bomb could take a couple a minutes to whip around a planet twice and then come back to kill you--you'd have longer to scream once you realize your inevitable fate. It seems like this should be pretty easy to do in a Python game.
