Extreme Tux Racer 0.7.4

#1 Post by OscarTalks »

There is a nice review of this game here:-

Sourceforge homepage for it is here:-
https://sourceforge.net/projects/extremetuxracer/
You may find versions of it in the package manager depending on your Puppy version but it can be compiled from source in Puppy.
It depends on SFML (Simple and Fast Multimedia Library)
https://www.sfml-dev.org/
This compiles using cmake && make && make install

Code: Select all

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DSFML_INSTALL_PKGCONFIG_FILES=YES
Then build etr-0.7.4 in the usual way.
I compiled it in Stretch and also in Wheezy. Probably best to build your own in your own Puppy version. These may or may not work in other Puppies.
The Wheezy version worked in Slacko 5.7 and Slacko 6.3.2 and TahrPup 6.0.5 in brief tests. Precise didn't like it for some reason.
It is not small, but most of the bulk is audio and image files so in fact the installed size is only slightly larger than the size of the .pet or .sfs package.
