Is it really "Puzzle Bobble" that it's a clone of? I remember this being an old game with a different name, but I can't remember it right now :) Anyway, in the Package description, I'd recommend describing the game (maybe mentioning that it's somewhat Tetris-like) rather than referring to Puzzle Bobble. (hm, is Puzzle Bobble related to Bubble Bobble? .. /me wonders) > Unfortunately, I'm still through the NM process, so I'm looking for a > sponsor. Preliminary work for the packaging can be found at : > http://www.ens-lyon.fr/~jmouette/debian/ I just tried this, and it's an excellent game. I'd be willing to sponsor it. (I'll be replacing my broken motherboard this evening, though. One preliminary bug report: it crashes with a relocation error whenever I quit. In the case where it's running fullscreen, it also manages to leave my mouse in an unusable state.
