This is the first bi-annual Linux gaming fest. The idea is to show everyone, even Linux users, that Linux has many games available for it.

Synopsis

Bring your Linux systems and a network cable because we're going to play some network games on Linux, including:

  • Armagetron
  • BZFlag
  • Tux Racer
  • Legends
  • TORCS
  • Battle for Wesnoth
  • Glest
  • Gate 88
  • Globulation 2
  • Scorched 3D
  • netPanzer
  • Mistlands
  • Fight Win Prevail
  • Cube
  • Cannon Smash
  • Tornado (ascii-multiplayer-destroy-your-neighbors-house-with-weather game)
  • Unreal Tournament 2004
  • Neverwinter Nights

Even if you don't want to bring your computer, we may have an extra for you to use, plus it will be a great oppurtunity to see Linux in action and see other people's systems. Seating will be limited to please let me know (mark@slugbug.org) if you plan on bringing your computer to this event.

After fest summary

Only 5 people showed up, but that's ok. Jeff, Chris, Tyra, Marina and Mark had a lot of fun. I think the biggest problem was preparing the games to function between distributions.

We should have another one in early August or something.
