Blobby Volley MX-18 Edition ;)

[Fibogacci]

Hello,

just to celebrate MX-18, I have modified a little this old game Blobby Volley. I prefer that new custom look

So, If you'd like to play with another MX as MX with MX ball, here you are:

1. In MX Package Installer in Stable Repo there is "blobby"
2. After installing in folder /usr/share/blobby are config files.
3. In backgrounds.zip are backgrounds, in gfx.zip are images of players and ball.
4. I share on Google Drive my modifications:

You can copy those two files (backgrounds.zip and gfx.zip) into /usr/share/blobby

Please do a backup of original files (.zip) first, if you'd like normal players and balls back later.

May the MX be with you.

Thanks for posting this, it really made me laugh on FB.

That's really cool! Hey... what if, for the ball graphic, we could swap in the head from jerry's avatar...

Actually, the "blobby" game seems a bit hard (hard to win, human vs autobot).
This one is less difficult https://packages.debian.org/stretch/slimevolley and its package is only 1.2Mb

For a customized version of the game, rather than a bgimage that has ya "staring into the sun", I might choose the dark blue image the MX bootscreen is derived from. Aha, the game supports at least 2 background images slimevolley-data/filelist.
Community project? Contribute custom graphics assets & package an MX-flavored version of the game?
