wxSand - Owen Piette's Falling Sand Game
As a kid, I spent many hours in the school library playing this game, and I compiled the Linux version as well. I tried finding it again, but it looks like the original author has abandoned it as his site now only links to the Windows version.
This repository contains the Linux source code he distributed, as well as a patch by me to make it compile under modern versions of wxWidgets.
This software was last updated in 2006, and is abandonware. The forum about it, fallingsandgame.com, has been down now for many months with a MySQL error, so all mods seem to be lost. (If you have any others, open issues and I'll add them to the mods/ directory.)
It's fun abandonware though, and works well on modern platforms.
Also included: PKGBUILD for Arch Linux User Repository.
Compilation howto:
Either, use the patched version in this repository in the fsg-4.4
directory,
or apply the patch "wxWidgets_fix_errors.patch" to the original source code.
You may also compile it against wxWidgets 2.6, which is the last version that
should work without errors and without patches.
