Free game for one software for linux

Game Launcher project is a universal front end for emulators.
The main goal is to provide a user interface that is easy to use and attractive, yet does not look like a traditional user interface with windows and such.
Game Launcher should work with any emulator, but it has been known to work with MAME, Nesticle, RockNES, zSNES, snes9x, Callus, Stella, z26, and Versions are available for Unix, DOS, and Windows.
Main features:
- Very flexible. It should run with any command line emulator.
- Simple and easy to use interface.
- Plays music in the background (MP3s or an audio CD).
- Displays screenshots (PNG, PCX, BMP, and JPEG).
- Customizable font.
- Customizable screen resolution.
- Support for vertical (rotated) monitors.
- Slight menu animations.
- Support for PC joysticks.

Game::Life - Plays Conways Game of Life.

SYNOPSIS

use Game::Life;
my $game = new Game::Life( 20 );
my $starting = [
[ 1, 1, 1 ],
[ 1, 0, 0 ],
[ 0, 1, 0 ]
];

$game->place_points( 10, 10, $starting );
for (1..20) {
my $grid = $game->get_grid();
foreach ( @$grid ) {
print map { $_ ? X : . } @$_;
print "n";
}
print "nn";
$game->process();
}

Conways Game of Life is a basic example of finding living patterns in rather basic rulesets (see NOTES). The Game of Life takes place on a 2-D rectangular grid, with each grid point being either alive or dead. If a living grid point has 2 or 3 neighbors within the surrounding 8 points, the point will remain alive in the next generation; any fewer or more will kill it. A dead grid point will become alive if there are exactly 3 living neighbors to it. With these simple rules, fascinating structures such as gliders that move across the grid, glider guns that generate these gliders, XOR gates, and others have been found.

This module simply provides a way to simulate the Game of Life in Perl.

In terms of coordinate systems as used in place_points, toggle_point and other functions, the first coodinate is the vertical direction, 0 being the top of the board, and the second is the horizontal direaction, 0 being the left side of the board. Thus, toggling the point of (3,2) will switch the state of the point in the 4th row and 3rd column.

The edges of the board are currently set as "flat"; cells on the edge do not have any neighbors, and thus will fall off the board. Future versions may allow for warp edges (if a cell moves off the left side it reappears on the right side).

Games::Goban is a board for playing go, renju, othello, etc.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Goban;
my $board = new Games::Goban (
size => 19,
game => "go",
white => "Seigen, Go",
black => "Minoru, Kitani",
referee => &Games::Goban::Rules::Go,
);

$board->move("pd"); $board->move("dd");
print $board->as_sgf;

This is a generic module for handling goban-based board games. Theoretically, it can be used to handle many of the other games which can use Smart Game Format (SGF) but I want to keep it reasonably restricted in order to keep it simple.

Games::Othello is a Perl extension for modelling a game of Othello.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Othello;

my $game = Games::Othello->new();

while( !game->over ) {
printf "It is presently %ss move",
($game->whos_move eq b) ? black, white;
my @possible_moves = values $game->possible_moves();

if ( ! @possible_moves ) {
print "You have no moves available, you must pass.
$game->pass_to_opponent;
} else {
foreach ( my $move ) @possible_moves ) {
printf
"You will take %d of your opponents chips if you place your chip on %d,%d",
scalar @{ $move->{chips} }, $move->{x}, $move->{y};
}
my ($locx, $locy) = get_move();
my $flipped = $game->place_chip( $locx, $locy );
}

my $layout = $game->chip_layout();
foreach my $row ( @$layout ) {
foreach my $pos ( @$row ) {
printf %3s,
($pos eq b) ? B # Black occupied square.
: ($pos eq w) ? W # White occupied square.
: # Un-occupied square.
}
print "nn";
}
}
my ($black_score, $white_score) = $game->score;

Games::PerlWar is a Perl variant of the classic Corewar game.

This is a sparring program, similar to the programmed reality of the Matrix.
It has the same basic rules, rules like gravity. What you must learn is that
these rules are no different than the rules of a computer system. Some of
them can be bent, others can be broken. - Morpheus

PerlWar is inspired by the classic http://www.corewar.info/|Corewar game. In this game, players pit snippets of Perl code (called agents) against each other in order to gain control of the vicious virtual battlefield known as... the Array.

GAME PARAMETERS

Size of the Array

The number of cells that the Array possesses. Each cell can hold one agent.

Agent Maximal Size

The maximal length, in characters, of an agent. If an agent is or becomes larger than this limit, it automatically segfaults upon execution.

Game Maximal Number of Iterations

The maximal number of rounds that can be played before a game is declared over.

Siriel4 game engine project is a game engine for adventure, arcade, maze-like games.
The main goal of this engine is to provide tools and scripts for easy game creation.
Game creators only write the necessary scenario descriptions for the game in a scripting language (such as Lua) and do not have to care about such low-level details as animation loading, etc.
Main features:
- Lua-5.0 - scripting language support
- DUMB - music and audio support
- Multiplayer
- Terminal support for controlling engine
Enhancements:
- fixed widget system
- removed procedure for separate processing of widget and replaced by flag indicating status of widget
- basic support of room neighbours
- fixed Makefile - include paths
- fixed freeze mode of univers (bug: avatar can move in freeze mode)
- callback function
- avatar can walk through rooms
- fixed processing and displaying things in correct rooms, so they display only in rooms where they are connected to
- fixed collision with object

Eclipse is a set of C++ classes designed to give beginner developers a head start in developing their first games as well as more experienced developers who dont want to have to write code for mundane tasks like fonts, sprites, and image loading.

Eclipse 2D Game Engine provides bitmap fonts, window management, audio capabilities, image loading, error logging, and zip file support.
