Free marble blast game software for linux

Acquire is a computer version of the classic board game.
The goal of the game is to make the most profit by buying stocks in companies that form, merge and grow as tiles are placed on the game board.
This program is a text-based version of the game and should be playable on any system with a C++ compiler.
Enhancements:
- The main improvement of this release is that the bug causing the game to crash at the end was fixed, so you can now see who won.
- There were some other small bugfixes and changes.

Quarters Board Game project is a strategy game for two players.

Although its rules are relatively simple, it still offers some of the same opportunities for skill as in chess.

This program was originally conceived in the summer of 1986 during a study of the mini-max algorithm for chess playing computers, and was thus designed to offer some of the same type of strategies.

The game was originally written in BASIC, then ported to Turbo Pascal, then to C, and finally to Java.

The Java version is not necessarily object oriented, since it is a crude port from the C version.

Marble is an early beta preview of the Marble Widget application which is targeted for KDE 4.
You need to install both packages: "marble" and "marble-data" to run Marble.
Marble is a generic geographical map widget that is meant to be used by KDE4 applications. It shows the earth as a sphere but doesnt make use of any hardware acceleration (No OpenGL). So although it might look similar to professional applications like Google Earth or Nasa World Wind its rather meant to be a small light weight multi purpose widget. To improve speed I decided to compile the Kubuntu packages with SSE support (-msse).
Main features:
- Marble uses a minimal free dataset that can be used offline. Currently the total amount of data that is meant to be shipped is about 5 MB.
- Marble doesnt use OpenGL or 3D hardware acceleration. It just uses Arthur as a painting backend. Extending it later on to support OpenGL as well shouldnt be hard however I dont consider that the primary focus. Depending on your hardware and the maps being displayed framerate is approximately 5-20 fps.
- Marble uses vector as well as bitmap data: Currently it uses the very old MWDB II data combined with ETOPO 2, which I will update to current SRTM soon.
- Marble displays the world map as a 3D sphere, because its more fun to use and less subject to distortion (So with regard to that its just like NASA WorldWind, Earth3D and Google Earth)
- Marble should start up almost instantly. Currently it "cold" starts fully within 2-5 seconds. On each subsequent start it takes about one second.
- Uses KML-Import to display places (Google Earths open format to store placemarks)
- Cities Down to 12000 inhabitants that you can click on using the mouse. Highest Mountains of each continent. Automatic Placemark label placement.
- Different Map Themes, Layers
- Dynamic Coordinate Grid
- Measure Tool
- Basic Wikipedia integration

Marbles is a simple board game. The objective is to take out as big groups of marbles as possible. Highscore system included. Ive also programmed some simple physics to make it look like the marbles fall.

If you hold the mouse over a cluster of marbles for a little while, then the potential score will show. You get bonuses if you remove eg. all the blue ones.

Installation:

./configure && make

su

./install_marbles.sh

exit

(Dont use "make install", if you did do a "make uninstall")

Start it by typing:

marbles

Its not programmed in QT, but it works in KDE.

Current record:

25960 points
- Held by a friend. Dont think anyone will beat that in a while:)

Tiny Marbles provides persistence for dynamic objects, through a data model that you can create, modify and extend at runtime.

It is useful for developers who need to create rapid prototypes with an unknown model and developers of applications that have inherently dynamic data models. Tiny Marbles project runs under Java 1.5, supports any database that Hibernate supports.

Resource Management Game project is a Web-based resource management game.

Resource Management Game is a PHP framework for easily creating resource management and strategy games.

Two playable games are included.

The system uses sessions to store data and should work out of the box with little or no configuration.

Bio::Index::Blast is a Perl module with indexes Blast reports and supports retrieval based on query accession(s).

SYNOPSIS

use strict;
use Bio::Index::Blast;
my ($indexfile,$file1, $file2);
my $index = new Bio::Index::Blast(-filename => $indexfile,
-write_flag => 1);
$index->make_index($file1, $file2);

my $id;
my $data = $index->get_stream($id);

my $bplite_report = $index->fetch_report($id);
print "query is ", $bplite_report->query, "n";
while( my $sbjct = $bplite_report->nextSbjct ) {
print $sbjct->name, "n";
while( my $hsp = $sbjct->nextHSP ) {
print "t e-value ", $hsp->P,
}
print "n";
}

This object allows one to build an index on a blast file (or files) and provide quick access to the blast report for that accession. Note: for best results use strict.
