Free obstacle software for linux

Sable is a frantic 3d space shooter inspired by games such as After Burner and Space Harrier. You pilot a ship through an obstacle-laden landscape and attack or evade swarms of enemies.

Sable itself is quite easy to play. The arrow keys move your ship, and the space bar fires your cannons. Holding down the space bar produces a rapid-fire effect. Avoid enemy craft, enemy shots, and the pylons. Pylons are destroyable but require concentrated fire to destroy.

Destroying an enemy ship is worth 75 points. Destroying a pylon is worth 200. Evading a pylon is worth 25 points.

Pressing P will pause the game. The R key toggles the "pylon radar" display which can be used to help navigate dense pylon fields.

Globus Toolkit is an open source software toolkit used for building grids. It is being developed by the Globus Alliance and many others all over the world.
A growing number of projects and companies are using the Globus Toolkit to unlock the potential of grids for their cause.
The open source Globus Toolkit is a fundamental enabling technology for the "Grid," letting people share computing power, databases, and other tools securely online across corporate, institutional, and geographic boundaries without sacrificing local autonomy. The toolkit includes software services and libraries for resource monitoring, discovery, and management, plus security and file management. In addition to being a central part of science and engineering projects that total nearly a half-billion dollars internationally, the Globus Toolkit is a substrate on which leading IT companies are building significant commercial Grid products.
The toolkit includes software for security, information infrastructure, resource management, data management, communication, fault detection, and portability. It is packaged as a set of components that can be used either independently or together to develop applications. Every organization has unique modes of operation, and collaboration between multiple organizations is hindered by incompatibility of resources such as data archives, computers, and networks. The Globus Toolkit was conceived to remove obstacles that prevent seamless collaboration. Its core services, interfaces and protocols allow users to access remote resources as if they were located within their own machine room while simultaneously preserving local control over who can use resources and when.
The Globus Toolkit has grown through an open-source strategy similar to the Linux operating systems, and distinct from proprietary attempts at resource-sharing software. This encourages broader, more rapid adoption and leads to greater technical innovation, as the open-source community provides continual enhancements to the product.

- This release adds a new reliable file transfer client. It has been upgraded to SpiderMonkey version 1.60, GPT 3.9, and OpenSSH 4.5p1 with the high performance patch, and ported to Mac OS X / Intel x86.
- Test coverage, credentials handling in the security module, and handling of XML schema have been improved.
- An authorization portal framework has been introduced.

pslange project is a ncurses-based clone of the game snake.
pslange is a clone of an old classic game otherwise known as snake or nibbles.
The object of the game is to steer the snake around the screen eating the food that pops up. Every time the snake eats something it grows. If the snake hits an obstacle either itself or the wall, the game ends.
I wrote pslange as a small learning project in order to learn python. It may not be the most advanced game but I belive it is an entertaining way to spend a few minutes. :-)
Since it does have several features common to many python based command line tools, it may be useful to some people as an example on how to do these things in python.
Main features:
- Internationalization - also known as I18N.
- Python setup.
- Command line handling using the module optparse.
- Using the python curses interface.

snake3d is a variant of the snake game (or worm game, depends on when you where
born).

You are a snake in a 3d cube trying to eat as many icosahedrons as possible, which makes your tail longer. To make things worse, there are other snakes in the cube.

When the game starts, all snakes are controled by the computer. When you like to take over, simply press a movement key and youll gain control over the green snake.

The keys are:

4 2 6 8 9 3: Moves left, down, right, up, forward, and backward according to the boards "north". That is, if you rotate the board, the 4 will make the snake move to the same wall even if it is now in the back. For help, there is a small compass on the lower left corner of the screen.

j , l i: Moves left, down, right, and up, according to the snakes point of view. For those controls you can use the "first person view" on the left of the screen. In the full board view, notice the eyes of the snake which will tell you which direction is up.

m .: Rotates the snake left and right around itself (I think this is called yaw).

a x d w: Rotates the board left, down, right, and up.

z c: Rotates the board in the z axis (yaw again?)

= -: Zooms in and out

G: Change grid level in the first person view

g: Change grid level in the full board view

n: Enters and exits auto pilot mode (notice that this is not the same as the other snakes or the beginning auto pilot mode. On this mode the snake will simply avoid obstacles.

r: Resets the speed and the board (rotation and zoom).

R: Resets the snakes (after you die).

b: change background color

< >: speed up and down

e: show walls

f: full screen mode (very buggy)

t: lighting on and off

p: pause

q: quit

Do178Builder project is a documentation tool used throughout the software/hardware development effort, helping to produce the DO-178B/254 documentation much less painfully.
A major obstacle to creating airborne products, for smaller developers, is the necessity to qualify the software per RTCA/DO-178B, or hardware per RTCA/DO-254. Without this qualification, airborne products cannot be deployed.
Enhancements:
- DO-254 support was added.
- The editor font size is adjustable.
- Multiple-developer database-locking is possible.
- Many project-template and stylesheet improvements were made.
- Change-tracking support was added.
- Document-navigation aids were added, such as searching and moving just within a specific document type.
- Arbitrary DocBook features are supported.
- Wizards were added for inserting tables, lists, and graphics.
- Documents can be pruned to an assurance level.
- Test case support was added for high-level requirements.
- External traceability support was added.
- Bugs were fixed.
- A DO-254 sample project was started.

Mini Tanques is a cction tank 2D game.
Action tank 2D game where you drive a little tank and you must kill all opponents in a single map level to pass to the next level. Versatile engine programmed in FPC (Free Pascal) using SDL.
Nice graphics, effects and sounds. Nice playability. You can edit your own level in a single text editor. Different tank models. Pick ups to power up weapons and enhance the play.
Two players in the same machine and future support for network play. Intelligent IA. Still under development but near to finish. With this 2D game engine I plan to make some more others (RPG, Adventure, etc).
Enhancements:
- Now a level editor is included (mteditor).
- New level design and purpose (all old levels already included anyway).
- No network system but all ready for that.
- Some menus changed for easy use.
- AI rewrited from scratch (more smart bot AI).
- Path search changed. Now the game search from /usr/games/minitanques and if not from the current directory.
- Now the configuration file is saved in $HOME directory (.minitanques.ini). You can play changing some rules in the configuration file.
- The map set the rules if it have that.
- New obstacle added (undestructible diamond). So the levels can have a invariable way.
- And some other little things updated...

Moagg combines several game types of other genres like races, search & rescue, seek & destroy et cetera into a 2D gravity game.
You are pilot of a small space ship and have to navigate that ship through different levels. But beside the gravity that drags you down there are other obstacles like laser ports, magnets, black holes, cannons, rockets and grinders you have to master.
Main features:
- Fully playable singleplayer game
- Missions on different difficulty levels
- Mission-dependend highscores
- Lots of static and dynamic obstacles
- Full controls configuration
- Basic sound support
- Basic player configuration
- Basic ship configuration
- Qt based level editor
Enhancements:
- Magnets now can be activated, deactivated and toggled via a switch or via the appropriate events, like laser barriers. The tutorial level switches.xml was adapted to demonstrate this. (btrummer, 2005-04-17)
- Fuel platforms now can define a fuel_cost property, which means that refueling the ship is not free anymore. (btrummer, 2005-04-16)
- SAM batteries now can be destroyed by projectiles too (like turrets). (btrummer, 2005-03-12)
- Now every decoration object supports the hide-property and can be shown via the show-event during game flow. (btrummer, 2005-03-12)
- Added three new levels to mission1. (btrummer, 2005-03-01, thanks to Will Poulsen)
- Fixed a bug, where the initial position of a turret projectile was calculated wrong, thus causing immediate collisions with the turret. (btrummer, 2005-02-08, thanks to Stefan Hamacher for reporting)
